WWE star Piper Niven has been on the shelf with a serious, career-threatening neck injury since September, and he or she recently offered an update on a possible return. Niven underwent anterior discectomy surgery in May, something she confirmed on X (formerly Twitter) following the procedure.
On Friday, Niven took to social media once more to make clear her status after a fan commented following a stream of Niven’s. Niven had posted to X yesterday that she was planning to go live on her Instagram account. The fan thanked the star for all she had done through the years, in addition to for all of the memories, and said that “Slaygent & Doudrop will live to tell the tale.” Niven replied to make clear things, saying she didn’t need to need to answer the identical query multiple times.
“Don’t count me out just yet chick, just letting people know that it’s going to be an extended time and perhaps possibly by no means so we do not have to reply the identical query 50 times a stream,” Niven wrote.
When one other fan responded that Niven knows she’ll still need to answer the query “750000000000 times,” Niven responded, “I do know who am I kidding,” with a laughing face emoji.
Don’t count me out just yet chick, just letting people know that it’s going to be an extended time and perhaps possibly by no means so we do not have to reply the identical query 50 times a stream 😉 x

Niven’s last match, a victory against Charlotte Flair, took place on the August 22 edition of “WWE SmackDown.” Niven had been a member of Chelsea Green’s Secret Hervice on the time, and the pair held the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships for 4 months in 2023.
After Niven’s departure, Green posted to social media in search of replacements for her “Slaygent.” Alba Fyre was also teamed up with Green on the time of Niven’s injury, but her contract was not renewed following WrestleMania 42.
