Amari Miller Stretchered Out Of NXT Bout, Suffers Concussion
Amari Miller left her latest match on NXT 2.0 on a stretcher after sustaining what was later diagnosed as a concussion.
On the March 1st episode of NXT 2.0 Amari Miller squared off against Lash Legend. During the match, which ended in defeat for the star, she suffered a particularly heavy landing which resulted in her leaving the arena on a stretcher.
At the time, the extent of Miller’s injury was unknown, although fans captured footage of her being attended to by medics.
Posting on social media in the hours after the show, Miller thanked fans for their well-wishes. In response, one fan surmised that she couldn’t have sustained a concussion as had been feared, as she was using social media.
Miller replied to the fan confirming that she had indeed been concussed, explaining concussion protocol.
You never know fear until you conquer it! https://t.co/8LQ6rhwgwG

No ur correct, but doctors normally like you to stay awake because ppl have passed away just falling asleep cuz they can go brain dead if it’s that’s severe. Just depends.
