10 Most Depressing Injuries In WWE History

10. The Undertaker (Broken Orbital Bone)

Fans watching in 1995 may have noticed a change in look for The Undertaker. There would have been people who didn't really know what was happening behind the scenes, because the internet wasn't quite as available as it is today. Therefore, some folks might have been wondering why Undertaker decided to wear a white mask all of a sudden, one that covered most of his face. This wasn't a grand aesthetic change for 'The Deadman', it was born out of necessity. 'King' Mabel can take the blame, clumsily crushing 'Taker's face during one match between the pair. A leg drop from the gargantuan big man is often handed the blame, but it was actually a routine clothesline that caused the damage. Mabel's arm went high on Undertaker, colliding with his face instead of his chest. Breaking The Undertaker's orbital bone, the move forced the man to adopt the new mask. Unfortunately, his face was altered by surgery, and the bone was weakened. Years later, Undertaker suffered a similar injury during a match against Rey Mysterio in 2010. On that occasion, he simply elected to take some time off. In 1995, he kept wrestling, albeit with the mask.
