Rob Van Dam Comments On The Injuries He’s Dealing With Right Now

Posted By: WrestlingNewsSource.com on Sep 06, 2019

Rob Van Dam was recently interviewed by WrestlingInc. about the various injuries he’s currently dealing. Below are the highlights:

On the status of his health:

“I still stretch and I’m still able to move. I still have my flexibility and can still do the splits and leap up to the top rope for the frog splash. But all of the banging I’ve done has added up to bone spurs, arthritis, compressed discs and also undiagnosed injuries. But I feel pretty good and at the end of this month, I will be going to South America and getting stem cell therapy. I’m pretty excited about that as there’s a doctor down there who’s been hooking the boys up. They’ve been coming back with miraculous results.”

On stem cell treatment:

“You’ll probably be hearing about this quite a bit in the business. They are able to do stuff down there that they are not able to do here. They say it doesn’t cure cancer but it seems just about everything else, stem cells might be an option. Hey I feel pretty good but it sounds like I’ll feel even better. There’s nothing better than quality of life, right?”

On if he’s worried about going out of the country and what does concern him about it:

“Nope, not in that matter because Ryback told me he had 11 stem cell procedures in the US before this. Then he went there and said it was night and day how much it helped him. Also, he said the facilities were the same as far as sanitary and the environment. But I am concerned about getting needles in my back. Most fans wouldn’t know how banged up we are and people don’t know that I’ve had a broken wrist for 26 years. I broke it in a much with Dory Funk Jr. and it never set right. I have deteriorating bone in there with no blood supply but I just live with it. So it would be amazing if this could fix it. Unfortunately, they are gonna have to shoot an epidural needle into me to numb me before sticking a whole bunch of needles into my spine. I am very concerned about that and my hands get sweaty just thinking about that.”
