Nick Aldis clarifies WWE role wasn’t about his back injury
Nick Aldis told Chris Van Vliet on Insight that his WWE manager role in 2023 was not chosen to mask a back injury. He explained his back issues were long-standing but due to inflammation of a stabilizer muscle, not a herniated disc, and that anti‑inflammatories cleared it up. He noted his spine is in good shape and the timing surrounding his WWE position was unrelated to any injury, countering circulating rumors.
