10. Stone Cold Steve Austin Shortly After His Neck Break
This shocking backstage photo illustrates the darker side of pro wrestling. Stone Cold Steve Austin had just been dropped on his head by a careless Owen Hart. The botched piledriver at SummerSlam 1997 would ultimately wipe years off Steve's career. It also temporarily paralysed him in the ring for a few minutes that night. As you can see from this image, the cracked neck was a very serious incident. A neck brace is next to the wrestler, who is sweating profusely and is unable to keep his eyes open.
