00:00Steve, obviously you had a very scary moment in the ring, you know, a sacrifice recently.
00:04What do you actually remember from that?
00:06Well, I remember everything.
00:07That's the funny thing.
00:08I try to tell people afterwards, like, hey, like, what happened?
00:11I was like, listen, I was like, this is the first time I've ever been rocked in the ring
00:14where from the neck up, everything was fine.
00:17From the neck down, I couldn't feel my arms as well.
00:19Legs were wobbly.
00:21I just, it hit a nerve really good on the left side where all everything is there.
00:25And it just really shocked my system right there.
00:27And then it was a really cool moment because the ref, Katie, who was in charge at that time
00:33in the match and Mike there as well, they handled it perfectly where she stepped in and knew
00:37something was wrong right away.
00:39And the first thing she asked me, she's like, are you okay?
00:41I said, yeah, just tell him to give me a minute.
00:44And it was just trying to gain my bearings, try to get ready for the next spot.
00:47And then as Mike came to pick me up and we're trying, she just knew instantly, she's like,
00:50nope, you're not getting up.
00:51And that's when medical came over, Carlos Silva came over.
00:54And then the icing on the cake for it to let me know was the dad voice that I needed
00:58to
00:59hear was Ace Steel coming back through the back curtain and just tapping the mat.
01:02He goes, you're done.
01:03I'm like, yes, sir.
01:04It was one of those good things where you just, you needed to hear that one person's
01:08voice that you trust the most.
01:09And he was that voice, Ace Steel at that time.
01:11And it was a really good moment for the company.
01:14And I think for the world of pro wrestling as well, to how to handle these certain injuries.
01:17Now, I hate being the guinea pig.
01:19I tend to be the guinea pig for a lot of things in the world of pro wrestling.
01:23I guess I'm that guinea pig in that way.
01:25But it's just, you figure it out kind of afterwards.
01:29But I'm feeling great.
01:29I'm back in the ring.
01:31I'm back on shows.
01:31I'm back in the ring.
