Tyson Dupont has undergone surgery.
The NXT star revealed news via a video on X this Wednesday. The 28-year-old noted that he has been dealing with pain in the hip since last year but had been trying to push through. He is trying to stay positive despite surgery and the young star claimed that he will be making a big comeback:
"Today’s the day. Finally getting hip surgery. I’ve been dealing with some pain in my hip for a very long time, since about July of last year. Pushed through to the best I could to make sure I didn’t miss any opportunities. But, God’s timing. When it’s time, it’s time so, today we’re taking care of that. Minor setback for a major comeback."
Making his WWE debut at NXT Level Up in August 2023, Tyson Dupont has a background in Athletic. Born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, he holds the Haitian national records in shot put and hammer throw.
The wrestling star is one half of the High Ryze tag team with Tyriek Igwe and he has also made multiple appearances for TNA in 2025 as part of NXT's partnership with the brand.
Though Dupont has largely stayed away from the ring this year, having wrestled only a Live Event match in February. There is no word on how long he will stay out of action.
