Kalisto: 7 Little known facts about him you probably didn't know

#1 Kalisto almost died once

Close shave with death

The life of a professional wrestler is filled with risks, period. And when the style of wrestling is hardcore, the risk doubles. During 2011, Kalisto landed in a hardcore wrestling promotion named Desastre Total Ultraviolento.

Working there took a lot out of Kalisto and once he injured himself badly. Once, he was trying to pull off a flip from the ring to the floor but unfortunately, his head hit the guard rail. This left him with a concussion and if the jump was a bit more misplaced, it would have taken the life of Kalisto.

“It literally felt like I was drunk every day,” Kalisto once said about his near-death experience.
