8. X-Pac Tears His Anus

Yeah, you read that right. His anus. X-Pac -- real name, Sean Waltman -- was competing at an independent event in Minneapolis, Minnesota when it happened. The show was in honor of Jerry Lynn, who was retiring. Waltman competed in a three-way dance against Lynn and Horace the Psychopath. During the match, Waltman went for his signature Bronco Buster on Horace, but the big man moved, leaving the former D-Generation X member to go crashing into the turnbuckle. It€™s a spot that Waltman has performed countless times throughout his career, but this one went wrong. As Sean explained it -- tweeting from the hospital following the injury, €œMy landing should have been 45 degrees. I ended up landing hard and horizontal.€ As you can see in the video, Waltman slides past the pad and hits the metal turnbuckle, which ripped him a new one -- for lack of a better description. Surprisingly, Waltman finished the match, which included a few more table spots. Sean said, €œMy concern was Jerry getting the proper send off, not my butt hole.€ Waltman returned to his hotel room after the show, but continued bleeding profusely. An ambulance was called, and he was transported to the hospital where doctors performed sphincteroplasty -- a real procedure.
