On losing 40% vision in his left eye and almost bleeding to death:
“I just remember being at the top of the escalator. This is one o’clock in the afternoon and I’m going to watch a South American wrestling tournament for three days to try to find guys (for WWE).
I just got off the plane. I’m feeling not quite right. I felt the wheel of the bag catching the banister, the rubber thing, and next thing I felt, smash. That’s all I can remember. I fell forward. I fell down the escalator. I hit the rubber rail.
It completely shattered my left eye socket and knocked me out. I had three weeks of amnesia after that. I have no idea what happened. I was in hospital for a week in Costa Rica. I lost 40% vision in my left eye, which I still haven’t gotten back. I can see, but it’s all gray.
I have no recollection of the next three weeks but that three weeks in itself is a full show of insanity and I mean nearly bleeding to death at one point, losing two pints of blood.”
