5. Tyson Kidd suffers severe neck injury
Tyson Kidd faced Samoa Joe in a dark match before WWE Raw. Joe won the match with the Muscle Buster.
Tyson Kidd suffered a neck injury due to Joe’s finisher. Referee threw the “X” sign which indicates that a wrestler is legitimately injured. As soon as the match was over, Natalya rushed to the back & Cesaro got in the to check on Kidd. Kidd left the ring and was nursing his neck area as he headed backstage.
Tyson Kidd’s neck injury is seen as a complete fluke and not the result of Samoa Joe dangerously executing a move. There is reportedly no heat on Joe for the injury. Tyson Kidd had a successful surgery and is expected to be out for 14 months. However, Bret Hart blamed Samoa Joe for injuring Tyson Kidd. Here’s what Bret had to say about Samoa Joe’s Muscle Buster:
“It’s extremely dangerous. The move that Samoa Joe did was reckless, and the way they rushed that match beforehand in the back without giving Tyson time to prepare was mistake. Tyson is, pound for pound, one of the best wrestlers in the world. And that includes his mind. If you went behind the scenes at WWE, Tyson is an intricate piece of so many other matches.
It’s a shame that a guy who is that talented and given so much to the company is hurt, but I just hope it’s not so serious that his career is over.”
