Chelsea Green Says Heart Procedure Treated Decade-Long SVT

The update points to a near-term WWE return after a separate ankle injury.

Overview

  • Green shared hospital photos on social media saying doctors finally identified her supraventricular tachycardia and performed a heart procedure.
  • She said the operation was minimally invasive, lasted about three hours, and was done by Dr. Girgis with her awake for the final hour.
  • Green described a WrestleMania-period episode that drove her resting heart rate to 228 for nearly 15 minutes.
  • She said she is on the mend and expects to be back at work soon, despite being sidelined since February by an ankle injury that kept her off WrestleMania 42.
  • SVT is a rapid or erratic heartbeat in the heart’s upper chambers, and Green has stayed visible on SmackDown, recently standing from a wheelchair to engage new Women’s U.S. champion Tiffany Stratton.
