4 wrestlers who got injured at the wrong time

#1 ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin

The impact of this move was really so strong.

A wrongly placed move shattered the whole bright career of ‘The Rattlesnake’.

On March 23, 1997, everyone in the arena saw Austin’s best performance till that day and more importantly, he performed at WrestleMania.

That night, we saw Bret Hart vs ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin in a Submission match and match lasts for 22 minutes and 5 seconds and Austin won that night. After his incredible performance, Austin quickly became everyone’s favourite.

Their feud didn’t end here and they were scheduled to fight again in SummerSlam 1997 but this time it was for the Intercontinental Championship.

But this match didn’t go as WWE planned it to be and Hart accidentally dropped a bad sit-out Piledriver to Austin and the impact of this move was so strong that it broke Austin’s neck.

And after this incident without Austin WWE’s war with WCW looked so weak. But the time was with WWE and after a month Austin returned back to the ring and he defeated Shawn Michaels (c) at WrestleMania 14 to win the WWF (now-WWE) Heavyweight Championship.

But the injury became so painful for Austin that he had to go for surgery in late 1999. The whole next year he was out of action and finally, the time came when in 2003 he announced his retirement.

He became the most famous professional wrestler in a short period and he was able to sell the show on his own. But, one wrong sit-out Tombstone Piledriver ruined his whole bright career.
