5 things you (maybe) didn't know about WWE Hall of Famer Beth Phoenix

#2 She broke her jaw in her first WWE singles match

This was the match

Beth had been tearing it up in Ohio Valley Wrestling (WWE's developmental brand at the time) before getting called up to wrestle in WWE proper. In 2006, she debuted as a face, helping Trish Stratus in her feud with Mickie James (still one of the greatest feuds in modern WWE history, in my opinion). After being involved in some tag matches, she had her first singles match, against Victoria, on the June 5, 2006 episode of RAW.

OK, brace yourselves.

During the match, Phoenix suffered a legitimately fractured mandible in which her jaw was entirely severed.

I'll give you a moment to stop screaming.

Phoenix still managed to finish the match, even winning, giving even more testament to her awesomeness. However, she was out for a whole year as she recovered from her injuries and surgeries.

Just kidding, she was out for two months. She went back to OVW for a while, and she still faced a year of surgeries and having a titanium plate put on her jaw, but she still worked during that time. I'll say that again - her jaw was nearly ripped off her face and she was only out for two months.

I... I just can't.... let's just move on to #1.
