5 Times WWE Superstars were assaulted by non-wrestlers

Becky Lynch sported quite a nasty shiner for a while

#5 Ole Anderson

One tough sun of a gun – Ole Anderson

Being a professional wrestler in the 1970s was a difficult job as any veteran will tell you, especially when it came to dealing with deranged fans and this one was far from what you’d call a fair fight.

After a match in 1976, Anderson was stabbed in the chest and arm by a 79-year-old wrestling fan. Thankfully, he survived.

Anderson was back in the ring 48 hours later, proving how tough the man was and how much of a professional he really was.
