Elton Prince, the British star one half of the WWE tag team
Pretty Deadly, revealed in a post on Instagram that he just
underwent successful two-level neck fusion.
The injury stems from a bad landing during a match back in
May 2025, where Prince explained that after the rough
landing, he felt a burning hot electricity exploding through
his neck and arms, losing control of his hands and all his
fingers curling in.
“It was pretty terrifying and what followed has been 7
months of tests, questions and well pain,” Prince wrote.
“But thanks to the efforts of the WWE medical staff and Dr
Kanter, Gina and the Hoag team, we found the problem and
yesterday I successfully underwent a 2 level neck fusion.”
Prince wrote that it is not exactly where he hoped he would
be at just 28 years of age but we are owned nothing in life
and he’s just grateful to be on the road to recovery.
He said that while he intends to work hard to get back in
the ring, his focus now is just to get healthy and be the
best dad he can be for his daughter. He also thanked his
wife, NXT announcer Kelly Kincaid for her support.
He also mentioned his tag team partner Kit Wilson in the
closing of his post.
“I’m excited to watch my brother [Kit Wilson] crush
everything he does and get a well deserved spotlight shone
on him,” he concluded.
