Sunil Singh has shared a positive update on his health after revealing earlier this month that he suffered a collapsed lung during a wrestling match.

In a social-media post, Singh said that follow-up X-rays have shown progress in his recovery. While making clear that he is not fully recovered, the Bollywood Boyz member said his trauma doctor believes he is moving in the right direction as the injury continues to heal.

“Back at the hockey rink today with some positive news: I am not 100% yet, however, my trauma doctor said, X-rays show I’m on the right path to recovery & my collapsed lung is healing. 🙏🏽 I have a few more tests to complete and until then, Hockey dad life in full mode 🏒🇨🇦💪🏾”

The update comes less than a week after Singh disclosed on September 21 that he had sustained the collapsed lung in a match. His latest comments offer the first clear indication that the condition is improving, though he also noted that additional tests still need to be completed.

Singh stresses that recovery is still ongoing

Singh’s message was optimistic, but it was not a declaration that he has been medically cleared to return to the ring. He specifically said he is not at 100 percent and still has further medical testing ahead of him. That distinction is important as he continues to follow the process laid out by his doctors.

A collapsed lung is a serious medical issue, and Singh’s initial announcement naturally prompted concern from wrestling fans. The physical nature of professional wrestling can make injuries particularly alarming, especially when they involve the chest or breathing. Singh did not provide a timetable for a potential return to wrestling in this update, nor did he state when his remaining tests will take place.

For now, the most significant news is that his trauma doctor has seen healing on X-rays. Singh presented that finding as a major positive while acknowledging that there is still work to do before he can consider himself fully recovered.

His post also showed him focusing on life away from the ring during this period. Rather than discussing an immediate in-ring comeback, Singh said he was back at the hockey rink and embracing “Hockey dad life in full mode.” The message reflected both caution and optimism: recovery remains the priority, while family time and everyday routines continue around the medical process.

Bollywood Boyz status remains unchanged

Sunil Singh is one-half of the Bollywood Boyz tag team. The duo recently addressed the possibility of returning to WWE or AEW, stating that they had not received offers from either company for a return.

That prior discussion remains separate from Singh’s current health situation, but his recovery is understandably the immediate focus. There is no indication in Singh’s update that he is preparing to resume matches, negotiate a new deal, or make an imminent announcement about the team’s future. His comments were centered on the results of his medical evaluation and the tests that remain.

The lack of a stated return date leaves the situation appropriately open-ended. Wrestling schedules and career plans can change quickly, but Singh’s own words make clear that the next step is medical follow-up rather than an in-ring commitment. Until the outstanding tests are completed, any discussion of when he may wrestle again would be speculative.

A welcome sign after a frightening disclosure

When Singh first revealed the injury on September 21, the seriousness of the situation was immediately apparent. A collapsed lung is not the kind of setback that can be brushed aside, and the update understandably shifted attention away from ordinary wrestling business toward his health and recovery.

That is why the detail about the X-rays carries weight. Singh did not simply say that he felt better; he said that his trauma doctor reviewed imaging and told him he was on the right path. The wording leaves room for the reality that healing is still in progress, but it gives fans a concrete reason for encouragement.

There is also a measured quality to Singh’s approach. He has not overstated where he is in the process. By saying he is not yet fully recovered and has more tests to complete, he has set realistic expectations. The update is positive without minimizing the injury or suggesting that he will rush back before he is ready.

That perspective is especially valuable in professional wrestling, where performers are often closely associated with resilience and the ability to work through pain. Singh’s message instead emphasizes medical guidance, follow-up examinations, and patience. The encouraging news is that healing has been observed; the responsible next step is to continue the process until doctors have all the information they need.

What Singh’s update confirms

  • Sunil Singh revealed on September 21 that he suffered a collapsed lung during a wrestling match.
  • He has since undergone X-rays as part of his care.
  • Singh said his trauma doctor told him that the imaging shows his collapsed lung is healing.
  • He is not yet at 100 percent and still needs to complete additional tests.
  • He did not announce a date for returning to the ring.
  • He is currently spending time with family, including at the hockey rink, while continuing his recovery.

The update does not answer every question surrounding Singh’s short-term wrestling future, but it does provide the most important answer for the moment: there has been measurable progress. For Singh, his family, his tag team partner, and the fans who were concerned following the initial announcement, that is meaningful news.

No need to rush the next chapter

The Bollywood Boyz have remained a recognizable tag team presence, and news that one member suffered a collapsed lung understandably puts any professional ambitions in the background. Whether future opportunities emerge with WWE, AEW, or elsewhere is a question for another time. Singh and the Bollywood Boyz recently said there had been no return offers from WWE or AEW, but there is no new development on that front in this health update.

At present, Singh’s message is not about where he will wrestle next. It is about where he is medically: improving, still undergoing evaluation, and not yet fully recovered. That is a grounded and sensible update after a serious injury.

Fans will likely continue to watch for further news once Singh completes the remaining tests. Until then, the clearest takeaway is that he has received encouraging medical feedback and is taking the appropriate time to heal. His return to the hockey rink as a dad may not be an in-ring milestone, but it is a welcome sign of normalcy during a recovery that remains ongoing.

Singh’s latest post offers hope without making promises. The X-rays have shown healing, his doctor has described his trajectory as positive, and he is continuing with the next steps of his care. For now, that is the update that matters most.
