Piper Niven has not wrestled since the August 22nd 2025 edition of WWE SmackDown. In September, it was reported that Niven was potentially dealing with a “career-ending” injury.

In a post via Twitter/X on February 2nd 2026, Niven provided an update on her health…

“I am in a good spot rn! ☺️ I’m sorry I’ve been so quiet with you guys. I appreciate every single message and every tweet (x? Sk?) I get, even if I haven’t liked or responded.

The truth is I’ve been so quiet as I know you have questions but the fact of the matter is, I don’t know yet. It’s 5 months on and some days when it’s bad I can’t stand up for more than a few minutes if even a minute.

Do I want to come back? Of course I do. This is all I’ve done and all I’ve wanted to do since I was 16 years old and I can’t imagine doing anything else, I still love it as much as I did the first day I started. And I feel like I was really just starting to get confident again and open up and hit my groove 😆

So all this to say, I hope so. Keep your fingers crossed for me 🤞🏻😘”
