Author’s take
For those of you who haven’t watched footage of the ill-fated match during which Young sustained the injury – a word of advice – don’t!
Darren Young’s elbow injury has got to be one of the most brutal mishaps I’ve ever witnessed in all these years as a professional wrestling fan. Agreed that it may not top what happened to Sycho Sid years ago, but still. Darren Young is one tough customer and we here at Sportskeeda hope he makes a quick and speedy recovery.
