$0.99
Sean Waltman reflects on the traumatic injury he sustained in 1992. Doctors advised him to never wrestle again, but he wouldn’t listen.
Description
Before his debut in the WWF a day after WrestleMania 9 in 1993 as the 1-2-3 Kid, Sean Waltman (then known as the “Kamikaze Kid”) suffered a traumatic head injury in the ring at the hands of Bill Wilcox. In the match, Wilcox overshot a suicide dive and landed directly on Waltman’s head. The impact of the move caused Waltman’s head to bounce violently off the concrete. As a result, a blood clot formed near Waltman’s brain. A three-day hospital stint ensued, followed by four months out of the ring. Doctors advised him to give up wrestling completely, but Waltman wouldn’t listen.
