Wrestling fans — This wrestling legend has competed for WWE in the past

A wrestling veteran suffered a severe injury at an independent show recently.

Tommy Dreamer is known to be one of the most extreme and toughest wrestlers in the world. Right from his days in ECW, Dreamer has shown a penchant to absorb massive amounts of pain.

Given that he has put himself in danger so many times, it shouldn't come as a surprise that Dreamer has also suffered his fair share of injuries. Even at the age of 52, he isn't afraid to put his body on the line, which resulted in yet another injury.

Tommy Dreamer took to Twitter to inform fans that he suffered a broken nose at an independent show. He also revealed that it was his fourth time suffering a broken nose, with the previous three being in ECW and WWE.
