oh wow Otani got paralyzed by a german suplex into the turnbuckle, that sucks

also i have never liked throwing dudes into turnbuckles, it looks kind of cool but also looks crazy unsafe

maybe i'm talking out my ass but how do you protect yourself like that

This is why it's an illegal move in real Wrestling.

How sad this is. Even though wrestlers are top notch athletes too many accidents like this occur. The number of wrestlers who have died is mind boggling and it happens too often.

He may be out of wrestling but the surgery was successful to repair the cervical injury and has been moved to another hospital for re-hab. Wish him well.

I hope he’s ok. If this is the same guy I saw the other day fightjoe, he was old anyways. Time to retire.
