A WWE superstar is back in the ring after missing most of the year with a serious injury.

Gigi Dolin is a WWE NXT wrestler who has been out of action since March. The reason for her absence has been a torn ACL in her knee, which required surgery and a lengthy rehab process.

The last time fans saw Dolin in NXT storylines was when she was part of an angle that saw her lose a match to Arianna Grace, who would then attempt to give Dolin a makeover.

During the opening video package of the recent NXT Halloween Havoc PLE, Dolin appeared as the narrator in the video.

At the WWE NXT brand’s live event in Lakeland, Florida, Gigi Dolin was back in the ring for the first time since her torn ACL injury in March 2024. Dolin competed in a match against Cora Jade, who has also missed significant time during injuries in her WWE career. Dolin won the match at the live event.

What Has Gigi Dolin Done In Her WWE NXT Career?

During her WWE career so far, Dolin has been on the NXT brand since just before the “NXT 2.0” relaunch happened in the fall of 2021. That led to Dolin having the best run of her WWE career when she was in the Toxic Attraction group with Mandy Rose and Jacy Jayne.

As a tag team with Jacy Jayne, Dolin is a former two-time NXT Tag Team Champion. The two women also wrestled on the main roster a few times but remained part of the NXT brand.

When she returns to television. Dolin will likely be a singles wrestler again as she goes after the NXT Women’s North American Championship and the NXT Women’s Championship.
