Paul London Suffered A Truly Disgusting Head Injury During A Match


If you’ve been a pro wrestling fan for longer than — oh, I dunno, a year — you’ve probably seen a pretty gross injury. It’s wrestling; people get their shins broken or their ACLs mangled on the reg. But sometimes, there’s a PARTICULARLY gross head injury that really makes you sit up and barf. Like a couple years ago, when Reed Bentley basically got scalped. Well, today’s Massive Head Wound Harry is none other than your favorite Lucha Underground codpiece-wearer, Paul London.

London was on a tour of Europe the past couple of weeks, which included wrestling in and scouting potential Lucha Underground talent at Germany’s famed wXw 16 Carat Gold Tournament. Well, on the final day of his trip, he went to Amsterdam and had a match, and … it … did not go as he wanted it to, we can only assume. Based on the head wound and all.

Seriously, this is a very, very gross injury and you definitely should not continue reading if you don’t like gross stuff, because I don’t know whether I’ve mentioned, but it is grossss.

Okay, you asked for it.

JESUS HOW WOULD THAT EVEN

WHYYYYYY

[deep breath]

Okay, we got this. It’s probably not as bad as it looks, right?

Oh, that seems bad.

GAH. After an indeterminate amount of time in the hospital, he finally got fixed up and was sent on his way.

So the good news is, now he gets to fly home with a head injury! Safe travels, Paul. Thanks for sharing this grossness with us. We’re glad you dealt with it as only you can, and we’re glad you’re out of the hospital and doing well.
