Ridge Holland has revealed the real reason he needed immediate neck surgeryand its far worse than fans originally knew.
In a new Twitter update, Holland explained that additional medical testing uncovered two collapsed discs in his neck, which were causing nerve impingement. The discovery forced doctors to move quickly, leading to a major disc replacement procedure at the Hospital for Special Surgery in Manhattan. Holland shared the news while wearing a neck brace in a video posted alongside his message:
The new update clarifies why Hollands injury was far more serious than first believed. What initially appeared to be routine neck issues turned into a situation that required immediate surgical intervention once doctors discovered the collapsed discs.
He also posted earlier on Instagram confirming that surgeons replaced the discs from C5 to C7 and thanked the hospital staff for their care.
This revelation sheds new light on the pain and physical challenges Holland has been dealing with for months. Whether he ever returns to the ring is still unknown, but for now, the priority is stabilizing his health after the shocking findings from further testing.
