During the main event of the December 1st event, Tiger Johnson was defeated by Ash in an unsuccessful bid for the NRWL Championship. Following the match, Tiger Johnson was motionless in the ring. NRWL medical staff rushed to the ring when they realized something had gone horribly wrong.
We now have an update on Tiger Johnson's condition. Johnson's face bounced off the mat after a second facebuster slam. That impact jerked his neck in such a way that major damage was done to several vertebrae. While we are happy to report that there is no paralysis, doctors are not confident that Tiger will be able to recover for in-ring competition again.
As we get more news we will update you here on the NRWL website. All of us at NRWL wish Tiger Johnson a speedy recovery.
