Asuka faces major difficulties with crutches, uses wheelchair; moved to special location after surgery

Asuka has provided an update during her recent vlog, detailing her present condition. The star is also facing issues using her crutches.

Asuka has been out of action for the last several weeks and Damage CTRL has suffered in her absence. With IYO SKY having issues with how things have gone down, the star will be competing outside WWE.

The star said that she was moving to a rehabilitation center to work on her injury. The star's time in the center should help her recover faster. At this point though, there's no certainty of when she'll be well enough to compete.

"Now I am going to be moved to a rehabilitation center for my rehabilitation." [9:35 - 9:36]

The star also confessed that she was facing major issues using the crutches. The airport authorities also provided her with a wheelchair when they saw the issues that she was facing.

"I've never used crutches before. Difficult to use it. The airport staff got me a wheelchair when they saw how hard it was for me to get around. If I had not used the wheelchair, it would have been difficult to arrive at the airport in time for my flight." [10:10 - 10:56]

Asuka also shared her current medical condition

Asuka also spoke about her medical condition. Throughout the video, she mentioned several times that her knee was hurting and that it was difficult for her to walk by herself.

She added that over the last few days, she had to be on painkillers but even then, her knee pain had not gone away. However, she added that she was fine and ended on a hopeful note, saying, "See you soon."

​

"I've been taking painkillers for the past few days, but my knee still hurts... I'm fine. See you soon." [11:30 - 11:39]

The WWE Universe will have to await her return, as it may be months before she's fit.
