Tyson Kidd recently had successful neck surgery after getting injured in a dark match vs Samoa Joe. In the wrestling business there are always injuries and it’s kind of easy to just brush it off as ‘just another injury’ but this was a serious accident that could threaten his career. Tyson tweeted out an inspirational verse from an Eminem song along with a picture of his surgery scar after they removed the bandages and it is not pretty. You’ve been warned.

This is a similar injury that cut short Steve Austin’s career. Tyson Kidd got some love from wife Nattie.
.@KiddWWE you're the strongest person I know… Who else is this strong days after surgery?! Love you!! ❤️❤️❤️

Tyson Kidd used to be a character I would just shrug my shoulders about. I wasn’t really into him but thought he was a good wrestler. In the past six months to a year he’s been real interesting and bringing his smug character to life on screen. The beats headsets, the gloves, and Nattie by his side could have led to some great television. We will have to wait and see how it goes from here but we wish Tyson Kidd a speedy and safe recovery.
