AEW star Eddie Kingston spoke with Cezar Bononi about several topics, including suffering a nasty ankle injury in 2007.
Kingston said, “I had ankle surgery…I broke it in January 2007 in a match and I tried to finish the match and broke it again. I took a back body drop. I landed with this leg on my ass, it broke. I went, ‘Okay, maybe it’s just torn ligaments.’ So I’m on the outside, moving it. I get back in the ring, limping, moving it. I go to throw a punch [makes snapping sound].”
On how he broke his ankle again:
“I get back up, I go, ‘Come on,’ moving it. I threw both guys out of the ring. You can see me [grimacing], okay, it’s just ligaments. That’s what I did before. Went to throw another punch, it broke again.”
