AEW star and current FTW Champion Ricky Starks recently revealed that he became pessimistic when he suffered a neck injury earlier this year.
Speaking with Sirius XM’s Busted Open Radio, Ricky Starks discussed numerous topics, notably his thought process when he suffered a fracture to his neck. The FTW champion stated that he had fleeting thoughts about his in-ring career being over during his recovery time:
“I did have the thought of…ya know, when it happened that ‘this is where it goes downhill’. I’ve gone to school for physical therapy and I know an injury to the neck is a huge deal because when you have an injury like that, especially with the neck, pretty much everything else starts to follow, you start to have issues in other places and whatnot. I’m not saying you can’t come back from a neck injury but for 11 years, from never having an injury to getting a neck injury, the worst ideas came into my head in that this is pretty much it. I never thought I’d be the same and pretty much the in-ring career was over," Ricky Starks said. (H/T- Wrestlezone)
