AEW star reveals he "wasn't feeling anything" after career-threatening injury

An AEW star recalled suffering an injury during a match and how he felt about it during the match. The star being discussed is Dante Martin.

Dante Martin is one-half of the Top Flight tag team. He is known for his high-flying maneuvers. In 2023, AEW's Top Flight participated in a ladder match at the ROH Supercard of Honor pay-per-view.

While speaking on Talk is Jericho, Dante revealed that he broke his fibula during the match and wasn't able to feel anything.

“Luckily, I had the adrenaline going. As soon as it happened, weirdly, I looked at it, and it felt like I was in a dream. I took a Canadian (destroyer) off the top rope through four stacked tables. My left leg hit the ground slightly before my right. I had a broken fibula and a dislocated ankle. Super weird because the first thing I did was look at it, and you can see me roll over to my b**t and, I tried to put it back. Doc Sampson, luckily we had Doc come running over, ‘No, no, no, don’t touch it.’ It felt like I was in a dream because I wasn’t feeling anything, the adrenaline was going," Dante Martin said.
