Agent_Bond34 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2003 also Scott Putski at, erm, I think it was Ground Zero against Brian Christopher in 1997 was pretty bad too see too when he kneecap went half way up his thigh. How did this happen? I never heard of this injury, until now, so I'm kinda curious. As for the worst injury I've seen on TV, or even a video clip: Sid's injury, hands-down.

The Decemberists 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2003 also Scott Putski at, erm, I think it was Ground Zero against Brian Christopher in 1997 was pretty bad too see too when he kneecap went half way up his thigh. How did this happen? Brian Christopher threw him over the top rope and then jumped on top of him and Putski's left (I think) knee just kinda 'went' and he he knee cap lept up to his thigh. It really didn't look good. BUT Jerry Lawler then left his commetry position with Vince and made fun of Putski for being a "quitter" and saying Brian Christopher would never quit. That's why I'm still not sure if it was a work or not, although how you'd fake a dislocated knee cap I have no idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BAR Report post Posted July 23, 2003 I haven't read the rest of the thread so it's probably been mentioned: Sid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted July 23, 2003 Nope...Sid hasn't been mentioned at all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TonyJaymzV1 Report post Posted July 23, 2003 The Putski icident was legit. I think Lawler and Christopher was just trying to keep in character as asshole heels and yet still be able to check on him. This is the reason Putski went from a pretty good middle to junior weight to a forgetable brawler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest TonyJaymzV1 Report post Posted July 23, 2003 Putski never had the TV title (thank you PWI Almanac) but I think he did have a brief Saturday NIght fued with Alex Wright, don't really know though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mad the Swine Report post Posted July 24, 2003 Though it's nowhere near as gruesome as most of these, Sting blowing out his knee out wasn't pretty. Jericho almost had his head taken off after a botched top rope move by Gedo at Halloween Havoc one year. Of course, Sid's is the worst I've ever seen. And that includes Garrison Hearst as well as watching and listening to a high school kid that broke his leg after tripping over first base. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Slingshot Suplex Report post Posted July 24, 2003 The guy in ECW that did the "Sid"......jumped off the top rope and shattered his leg..it's on the Hardcore History dvd but I don't know his name. But you can hear the snap...... I don't think this was ever on tv but Sabu doing the triple jump moonsault mouthfirst onto a table leg made me and Youth N Asia cringe in the middle of a large mall. Was Perry Saturn blowing out his knee in ECW ever on tv? Eddie Gilbert messed up his knee or his leg in a match with Kevin Sullivan at Cobo in Detroit. That wasn't on tv either.Just the topic made me remember it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It really didn't look good. That sounds rather gruesome. It even hurts just thinking about it. And that includes Garrison Hearst as well I agree, that injury was pretty bad.

Guest Insane Bump Machine Report post Posted July 24, 2003 pretty amazing that Sabu breaking his neck against Benoit hasn't been mentioned yet. Also Hayabusa's botched Lionsault where he got paralyzed. Both of those are tough to watch, especially Hayabusa, knowing that he's still not able to walk (I think).

Guest Deviant Report post Posted July 24, 2003 Jericho almost had his head taken off after a botched top rope move by Gedo at Halloween Havoc one year. Holy crap, I just downloaded that, talk about your coincidences. Well, now I have to watch that match! It was from the DDP-Savage HH btw. Whoa, that was cool, how did Jericho get right back up from that? Mustn't have been as bad as it looked. Other than that losing balance top rope rana, that match had nothing, really disappointing considering who was in it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

B. Brian Brunzell 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2003 Sid and the Headhunter were two of the worst I've seen. They're up there with Theismann. The worst part about Headhunter was after he SNAPPED his leg, he then proceeded to get caned pnce or twice by The Sadman. Talk about your bad days, eh?

LooseCannon25 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2003 Wait a minute,.........Wanst the guy whoo broke his leg in ECW a new guy who had been around the indies? I don't think it was a headhunter. Another gruesome one was JT Smith from ECW going for a Suicide diver over the top to the outside nad landing on his fuckin FACE. You can hear his damn skull thud on the floor. The guy had as big a knot on his head as HAsim Rahman against Holyfield, and STILL finished and won the damn match even though he looked like he was out of it for a few minutes after that.

Guest Thunder Rising!!! Report post Posted July 25, 2003 I believe he is one of the headhunters as i saw another guy similar to him in the ring though i can't bother to tell the difference between the 2 because i have only seen 2 of their matches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Mindless_Aggression Report post Posted July 27, 2003 Not nearly as gruesome but Sid gave the powerbomb to the blonde headed jobber who held the tag titles with Rick Steiner for a bit, anyways, the powerbomb was fine, but Sid always dropped down knee first in between his fallen opponents legs then stretched across the chest for the pin. That time, he completely missed the mat and his knee came down right on the poor fools crotch. He was supposed to be unconscious but I've never seen a man's eyes so big frankly.

Guest Mindless_Aggression Report post Posted July 27, 2003 Yeah, Kaos, Sid beat him about 6 times during his Millennium Streak crap and everytime he dropped the knee down and every time except once, he missed his genitalia.

Guest JAxlMorrison Report post Posted July 30, 2003 -Macho Man cracking his jaw on the guard rail after Hogan moved out of the way of a flying ax handle. I think this was legit. If not, Macho did a helluva job selling it. Ah, I remember that one. Macho vs. Hogan, Nitro main event for the 28th time. I was surprised Savage wasn't spitting teeth after that, it looked really nasty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Big McLargeHuge Report post Posted July 30, 2003 I was gonna mention Hayabusa. I was at the board when the story first broke and a link was posted that had footage of it. I was too much of a pussy to watch, but I had read a post that said he was folded in a C shape or something when he botched the move. That alone is fucking terrifying. Sid's leg breaking is probably the most gruesome injury to be viewed by a big audience. The way it was just hanging there while he was screaming in agony on the mat.
