Welcome to the Busted Open After Dark podcast. I'm your host, Tommy Dreamer. And tonight I have to talk about the knee injury by WWE Superstar Zoe Stark that happened on Monday Night Raw. And I will break down from my past experiences as well as what I saw on television right here on the Busted Open after Dark podcast.

This is the Busted Open podcast. Obviously. This is the busted open podcast.

Obviously, we had an injury tonight, someone that, you know, friend of the show,

as well as someone who I've been rooting for for a long, long time, and that's Zoe Stark.

Zoe Stark suffered an apparent knee injury tonight in her, early on in her match in the three-way

Money in the Bank qualifier versus Ria Ripley and Carrie Sane. And man, oh man, I've been there.

There's other parts of it too. This is, you know, the human nature of this game.

So I'm going to try to take it like from a couple of different ways. Number one, the professional athlete, right? The move happens. The moment the move happens, you know something is wrong with your body.

I could get into all the injuries that I've had. I broke my neck. I broke my back. I broke every bone in my heel.

I was able to continue. I was able to wrestle. I was able to,

yes, I missed shows. I tore my peck, my bicep and shoulder in one move. Again, I broke my back

and I was able to get out of the ring. I crawled to the back.

I couldn't get up afterwards, but days later I got up.

Recently, on an indie show, someone did a front flip into my knee, and it buckled me.

And I felt this shock of pain that I've never felt.

And again, I broke my neck. I didn't feel that pain. I broke my back. I didn't feel that pain.

I got knocked out from a shot to my testicles by Jerry Lawler. My knee cracked my sternum when Taz suplexed me off of the stage. And own knee cracked my sternman. It hurt to breathe,

but I was able to get up and walk out on my own power. The only time I was able to actually,

I had to pause the match was when something happened to my knee. It was recent. I was very,

very fortunate that the injury wasn't as bad as I thought,

but I literally laid there on the floor in Toronto, a Greek town, and said, holy crap,

it's over. And it was the most humanizing guys and everybody listening.
