Famous WWE commentator Corey Graves and former WWE female superstar Carmella welcomed their newborn son, Dimitri Paul Polinsky, into the world on November 8th. It has been a while since Carmella has wrestled, as she has been out of the ring for almost a year due to her pregnancy.
This was not the first attempt by the couple to conceive a baby, as they had failed previously, and the birth of Dimitri is their greatest happiness. However, amid such a joyous occasion, Carmella shares a distressful update.
Carmella shares nerve damage update
Former WWE female superstar Carmella and WWE commentator Corey Graves welcomed their newborn son, Dimitri Paul Polinsky, into the world on November 8. After several attempts, they were able to achieve this milestone as a married couple. Both of them were overjoyed to welcome their child into the world. However, to have this happiness in life, Carmella had to suffer from labor pain for almost 60 hours.
Yesterday, Carmella posted a series of stories on her Instagram, answering the questions of fans. One of the questions from fans was about her right foot’s condition, in which she is having trouble moving. She revealed that she had suffered some nerve damage in her right foot after giving birth to her child.
“Okay, for everyone asking about my foot, asking what happened with my foot, or how it happened. Basically, I have some nerve damage in my right foot from pushing these bubbles out of me. So, like, the entire inside of my right foot is numb, and it is difficult to move my toes. I can’t really move my foot,” said Carmella.
She added that she is having trouble walking due to the damage. She also revealed that her doctor has told her that this nerve damage will be repaired within a few weeks and she shouldn’t worry about it.
She said, “So, it’s making it difficult to walk, which is a bit annoying. But, as an anesthesiologist, because I thought it was originally from the epidural, I didn’t know what was wrong. But he said it can happen with pushing on your back, and it should hopefully resolve in a few weeks. I’m going to see a chiropractor next week, which will hopefully help. My acupuncturist has been working on it, so we’ll see. Fingers crossed, it’s better soon.”
Corey Graves returns to commentary duty after brief leave
WWE commentator Corey Graves has been absent from his role on WWE Friday Night SmackDown for the last two weeks. The reason behind this is the birth of his and Carmella’s child. It was quite a harsh journey for him and his wife, as she suffered many issues while giving birth. However, the new parents are quite happy, despite the complications and hardships.
During Graves’s absence, Road Dogg and Kevin Owens did commentary on his behalf on the last two episodes of WWE SmackDown. Both were quite good at this task and were highly appreciated by the fans. However, Kevin Owens’ performance wasn’t as successful as Road Dogg’s because he got involved in a brawl, which eventually led to his suspension.
In the latest episode, fans were thinking about who was going to do the commentary on behalf of Graves. Surprisingly, nobody had to fill his shoes as Corey Graves himself appeared on the episode and did his job as usual. On his return, many wrestlers congratulated him on his newborn baby.
