For fiery redhead, Christy Hemme, her injury earlier this year couldn’t have come at a worse time. Hemme was being pushed as TNA’s top babyface Knockout and was placed into a title programme with Awesome Kong for the Knockout Championship. However in January 2009, she was abruptly sidelined after suffering a neck injury and from then, seemingly fell off the radar.
Little was known of Hemme’s progress – until now. Five months later almost, finally there is an update on Christy’s status – unfortunately for her fans, it doesn’t sound like good news. In a recent interview, Christy updated:
“I opted not to have neck surgery because I don’t like the idea of fusing bones together when you can heal it naturally,” Hemme said. “I haven’t wrestled since November and I’m feeling really good and getting a lot stronger and waiting it out until I can get back in the ring.”
I don’t know about you, but to me it almost seems like that Candice-esque situation where she’s gotten injured and seemingly falls off the wrestling radar. Hemme, like Candice, has worked on a lot of outside projects during her time away from the business which makes me wonder if she’s long for this industry.
Furthermore, there are shades of Torrie Wilson’s situation there. Torrie was sidelined with an injury that never really went away and eventually, she quietly left WWE. I have to wonder if that’s a similar situation for Christy, she’s been on the shelf for a good while and each day, a comeback looks slimmer and slimmer.

I think shes slowly departing from the company. Ive never heard her being talked about since her injury on the announce table, nor has anyone said that shes having a good recovery.
yea i think her case is gonna be similair to Moose Knuckles…
what ever happened to her?
I think I have to agree with MickieJamesFan. Nothing has been mentioned of her in all this time away, and that response she gave doesn’t sound very good.
Umm well, Moose broke her leg pretty badly and needed time off. TNA allegedly promised her a contract when she was healthy & could return to action and I believe she began wrestling again quite a while ago but.. no contract.
Honestly,Who Cares Im not trying to be mean I dont have anything against Christy but I dont think her being gone is gonna hurt the knockouts division. Roxxi and Gail Kim being gone benefits the Division alot. TNA lost two great Wrestlers in 1yr. They cant afford to loose any other important Knockout. The ones that benefit to me are Taylor,Angelina,Awesome Kong,CheerLeader Melissa,and ODB. The rest woudnt effect the knockouts division if they leave. I dont know thats just my opinion. Christy did improve but I dont think she is that important.
