Dude was having his best year so far, wishing a speedy recovery.
a herniated disk is terrible business for an athlete, here’s hoping he recovers but it will take a while
Aww man that sucks I hope he’s okay.

>Sorry to all the fans out there. I have dealt with herniation issues for the past 8 years or so, but this one is different. Those who know me know that to miss a week like this, you would darn near have to kill me. And that is about the case right now.

>Normally I deal with sciatic pain down my left leg. In this case, it has been a bilateral chronic pain that has affected my entire cauda equina bundle of nerves. Because of the location of the injury, we have to be extra vigilant about the next few days, as symptoms can lead to paralysis and loss of other lower body extremity function.

>I am on bed rest now, but do feel an improvement from when it occurred. Sorry to @ElDesperado5 @TIMEBOMB1105 @RichardsWesley and @rennarita_njpw that l won’t be there to fight them. Now it is the time to heal up and planning my return. There is no timetable yet. Might be quick, might be a while. No matter what, I’m coming back with a fire burning under my ass (probably from the residual nerve pain lol). Either way enjoy the shows this week and remember, Let’s Get Wild!
Edit: missed the last part, thanks EffingKENTA.
Terrible luck. He had the rocket strapped to him.
Just listen to him on the Jericho pod, he’s got real heart. I’m sure Shibata will take good care of him. Can’t wait for the return
Gutted. Absolutely terrible timing for the guy.
i’ve had herniated disc and it’s terrible wouldn’t wish my worst enemy that
that sucks but I’d rather he’d be safe and healthy then risking fucking himself up more
Damm was really impressed by him at forbidden door. Hopes he’s back soon and maintains his momentum
