Red Velvet Further Opens Up About Injuries That Sidelined Her, Says She Had Bulging Discs In Her Neck

Velvet speaks more about the injuries.

From June 2025 until November 19th, Red Velvet had been out of action. She would go on to reveal that she was sidelined due to a dislocated shoulder and neck issues.

Velvet expanded on that during her appearance on Close Up w/ Renee Paquette. She shared that she had bulging discs in her neck.

“This past injury, it was only a couple of months. I suffered an injury during our tour in Mexico, which I think I wrestled after that. I don’t think I was aware of what happened and I did a show. My shoulder came out of place so I went to tell them, ‘I’m getting stings down my arm’ and their concern wasn’t my shoulder. They were like, ‘Well, in Mexico, you took this really bad dropkick and we’re worried about your neck.’ So I went to get some MRIs and I had two bulging discs in my neck — very tiny — caught very early so, I did P.R.P. (Platelet-Rich Plasma) on that. I did P.R.P. on my shoulder, and everyone was just so sad for me and I was just like, ‘No.’ I said, ‘This is just a little hiccup on the road and I’m gonna fix it and I’ll come back 10 times better.’”

Velvet is back in the swing of being in the ring. At ROH Final Battle, she bested Mercedes Moné to regain the ROH Women’s World Television Championship.
