10 Most Ridiculous WWE Injuries Ever
8. Bang Your Head
As an industry where injuries aren't supposed to happen despite the performers constantly having to act as if they're hurt, there can be great benefit from replaying convincing-looking spots that can make protagonists look like superheroes for surviving such onslaught, or antagonists look pained in their comeuppance.
Sadly for Taka Michinoku, neither motivation spurred Jerry Lawler's giggly request to see the former Light Heavyweight Champion smash his head off the floor mats again and again and again.
If it wasn't offensive enough hearing 'The King' revel in Michinoku's clear agony, he went a step further with his endless requests to see the footage. 'Show me the little Chinese guy again' was the choice call, reigned in slightly by Jim Ross, who himself had issued a grand 'sayonara' as Taka hit the deck.
It wasn't a great night for the Kai En Tai member, all told. He only entered the match alongside Funaki in protest that both had actually been left out of the thirty man war. The intended comedy spot in which the insurgents were promptly dump left him with a legitimate concussion that has been, for nearly two decades, considered one of the funniest real life injuries in wrestling history.
