Ridge Holland to Birmingham for foot cast removal, neck issue consult

Published 21 October 2025

Former WWE performer Ridge Holland said on Tuesday he will travel to Birmingham, Alabama next week to have a cast removed and undergo X rays for a foot injury, and that he will also consult a specialist about a separate neck injury that could require surgery. Holland made the update in a video posted to social media on October 21, 2025.

Holland said he underwent surgery for a Lisfranc injury on October 3 and expects the next appointment to determine whether he can begin partial weight bearing. “Next Tuesday, I’ve got to go to Birmingham, Alabama to have the cast off, get some more X rays to make sure that the foot is all good,” he said in the video. He added that imaging taken after the foot surgery revealed ongoing issues in his neck and that he will see a neck specialist during the Birmingham visit.

Describing the neck issue, Holland said he is experiencing nerve impingement that is sending pain down his arm. “Worst case scenario, I’ll need neck surgery and I’m hoping for the best case scenario, which is injections,” he said, adding that the prospect of further procedures is a setback during his recovery.

Holland’s update comes after he suffered the foot injury in September...
