Missy Hyatt is dealing with something far more serious than wrestling memories right now, because the former wrestling personality revealed she was involved in a bad car accident earlier this month and will need surgery.
The former wrestling personality took to Instagram and told fans she usually keeps this kind of stuff private, but wanted to give people an update. She also said she was turning off comments because she already knows some people will send support while others may mock her.
“I’m gonna turn off the comments on this post. I just wanna update some people. I usually do not share this kind of stuff. I hope everybody likes all the wrestling stuff I’ve been putting up. I gotta thank my friend Mark B. for sending me the footage.”
Hyatt said the crash happened on June 2 and revealed she will need surgery soon. She made it clear the accident was not her fault and shut down any idea that alcohol was involved.
“I was in a bad car accident on June 2 and I’m gonna be needing surgery soon. Some people will send their condolences. Other people will laugh and make fun of me. It wasn’t my fault I had not been drinking I do not drink.”
The most heartbreaking part came when Hyatt said she does not have anyone to take care of her after surgery. She admitted she doubts she will find someone before the procedure, especially because she is still not sure when it will happen.
“But I have nobody to take care of me afterwards and I doubt I will find anyone between now and then I’m not sure when surgery is.”
Hyatt ended the post by telling fans to enjoy an old photo, but the update itself was clearly heavy. Between the accident, surgery, and her concern about recovering alone, she is dealing with a lot right now.
Missy Hyatt has been part of wrestling history for decades, and this news is the kind of thing that will have longtime fans hoping she gets the support she needs. Surgery is already stressful enough, but going into it without someone to help afterwards makes the situation even harder.
