Doctor Reacts To Painful WWE Injuries

I Reacted To More Wrestling Injuries -> https://youtu.be/TK6hWcRD6tk

i’ll never understand how people have the strength to risk their physical health for a sport. major props to everyone in this video

In regards to Cody and how the WWE let him do this, apparently, according to the man himself, he and the match producers asked the doctors if it was still possible to do the match. They stared at him in confused horror and said "Well, the injury literally cannot get any worse. It is entirely torn and separated, whatever happens it can't get worse. So...I guess????"

Wwe isn’t fake it’s staged

Met Mick Foley outside a coffee shop one time in NY. Dude was one of the nicest people I've ever met. Big horror fan (and wrestling obviously) who's more than willing to chat with you and overall just emits positive vibes.

How Mick Foley is still alive let alone healthy is beyond amazing.....a true legend.

I remember in an interview with the Undertaker, he said when the cage caved and Mick fell through, he thought Mick was dead. The sheer will to get back up TWICE after falling off the top of the cell is legendary. Mick Foley is an icon.

My cousin is involved in the more local professional wrestling scene. He used to just be a wrestler, but now mostly sticks to organizing and setting up stuff. He had to take a long break because they had an accident with a chair, it was supposed to be a fake hit over the head, but something happened. It hit him fully in the head, causing a bad concussion and lacerations to his head. He ended up with several stitches and staples in his skull and having to take almost a full year off until his was medically cleared.

There was more with the Mick Foley Hell in a Cell. The chair he fell through the cage with hit him in the head/face, and his tooth went through his mouth. The things he put his body through in his career is insane. And the fact he’s actually an intelligent and well spoken author just makes it even crazier. Massive respect for Mick.

I respect people competing in WWE, staged or not they still go through it all and their stamina is on another level

The fact that not only did Mick Foley get back up from that fall, but forced his dislocated arm back into place, and still tried to continue the match… Just speaks volumes of the diehard endurance that these wrestlers can have (And the fact that, that match in particular could’ve been WAAAAAAY worse than it was, if Mick had hit the concrete floor instead of the table)

What a lot of people forgoe when they say WWE is fake is that you still do things that require extreme athleticism and those often have risks of injury. It's staged and practiced but while the damage on the body may be minimized but it's still there.

The knee injury mentioned used to be a career ending injury not too long ago, it is amazing how much Medical Science has advanced so that they can continue their career after recovery.

There is a reason we watch these people when we know it's "fake". These people are legendary. I remember that cage match with Foley and the Undertaker, it was batshit crazy.

Also that X sign the ref did around 9:17 after Randy dislocated his shoulder to signal a serious injury and that he can't continue wrestling. Love this, I'm really glad I found this video, I mean WWE and medical analysis that's like fireworks for me ❤✨

when i was 16 i was thinking of signing up for wrestling school so i can try and become a wwe wrestler. but when i saw the bts of how often wrestlers get injured got me scared asf because i’ve never broken a bone so i’m scared of breaking anything. so major props to everyone who’s able to do this for a living

Awesome episode for a wrestling fan like me. Dr. Mike mentions not knowing how they can tell legit injuries during the Candice Michelle injury. It actually shows Candice not squeezing the refs hand. He also alludes to that being the finish with the pin versus a let’s finish this and get her help moment. Additionally with the Bret concussion it doesn’t show him hitting the ring post which dazed Bret preventing him from actually blocking Goldberg’s kick.

Lots of true wrestling fans could talk for hours on end with Mike about this, and give a ton of behind the scenes to go over what they do if someone gets hurt in the ring.

Doctor Mike's signature move is the Chest Compression.
