A recent episode of the Wrestling Observer Live featured co-host and TNA Wrestling producer Lance Storm making a return to the show after being absent for some time due to him undergoing nasal surgery.
One of the topics discussed included Storm providing an update on his breathing issues and stated he can currently breathe better now through his nose.
“Well, we don’t know for sure (if I can breathe better post-surgery) because my problem was intermittent. There’d be times when I could breathe relatively okay and then my sinuses would just shut down, and I couldn’t breathe through my nose anymore. But, I’m currently breathing better through my nose than I was when my nose was doing better before the surgery so as long as I don’t get the flare-ups, then definitely a big improvement. But, I’ll have to wait and see if I get the intermittent flare-ups or not.”
Storm also provided an update on his backstage duties status for TNA’s upcoming Slammiversary 2026 event on June 28th in Boston, Massachusetts.
“My making it to Slammiversary is no longer in question, barring any kind of freak incident… The having blood pour out of your nose randomly on the side of the road was fun.”
