Sean Waltman Recalls Nearly Losing His Arm Due To Injury

Sean Waltman made an appearance on Insight with Chris Van Vilet to discuss a wide range of topics. 

The WWE Hall of Famer recalled a story about how he almost lost his arm due to not taking care of an injury.

“I was in a match.  You know Nick Aldis.  Nick and I were in a tag match.  I don’t want to get into the specifics of how it happened, but it had to do with a clothesline.  I hit him, and I tore my pec completely, and my bicep.  My pec is gone.  I only have half a pec on this side. 

My bicep is torn.  It’s guts into a ball.  That was brutal.  That was the most f*cking pain I’ve ever had in my life.  I drove four hours home because I was living in Philly at the time.  My arm, everything swelled up, and they almost had to cut my arm off.  I had this thing called compartment syndrome.  Everything started filling up with blood.  I should have gone to the hospital instead of driving home for four hours.”
