Chris Bey reflects on recovery in birthday message
Chris Bey is reflecting on his recovery.
The TNA wrestler, who turned 30 on Friday, posted on social media showcasing how he’s progressed in the last year by showing a video of himself hopping over a box. He noted that it was exactly one year ago that he posted taking his first unassisted steps after suffering a serious neck injury in October of 2024.
“Birthday = Gratitude. God is good. 1 year ago today I was taking my first steps unassisted and posting to the world about my injury. The support has been overwhelming and I can’t describe how I feel other than grateful,” he wrote. “From that moment on I walked independently, no matter the distance, 1 step at a time. Thank you all for walking with me. Time to jump into the next chapter. I love you all. #GSET.”
Although he’s continued to make positive steps in his recovery, Bey told Bryan Alvarez and Tom Lawlor in an interview back in December that he’s in no rush to return to the ring.
“I know when my body’s ready for it, I’ll be able to do it,” he said. “I started coaching again at Future Stars of Wrestling. So, I do public classes again but I’m just coaching. I’m not rolling around or doing anything physical, when the time comes, my body will tell me if I can or if I should. I just wanna wake up and feel good.”
