10 times an injury actually helped a wrestler's career

#6 Cesaro’s teeth get smashed into his gums

This injury must've been unimaginably painful

Cesaro has long been praised by WWE fans for a lot of reasons. His combination of strength and agility are considered by many to be second to none. He has an incredible sense of charisma and connection with the audience. And he showed incredible toughness when he got his front teeth smashed into his gums.

At No Mercy 2017, Cesaro botched a move and ended up getting tossed face-first into the steel ring post (not the padded turnbuckle, mind you, the actual steel post). Seconds later, he was bleeding profusely from the mouth (and must’ve also been in a terrible amount of pain).

But he continued the match – which went at least another ten minutes – as if nothing had happened. If that isn’t an example of commitment and toughness, I don’t know what is.
