Japanese pro wrestling legend Minoru Suzuki had a scary moment in the ring during a Tenryu Project match, which took place on July 6.
The 56-year old Suzuki collapsed while competing in the main event of the show. The match was stopped by the referee. He was taken to a local hospital and has since been released.
After tests done by doctors, there was no bleeding in his head or anywhere else and the final diagnosis was a concussion.
Suzuki issued the following statement on X regarding his condition.
“I’ll report it for now. I did a CT scan and other tests, but there were no particular problems. I was kicked out of the hospital with a “If you’re feeling fine, go home!” feeling. I remember everything. I even remember how I fell at the end. So there’s no need to worry. For now, I’ll just say one thing… “If I see you again, I’ll beat you all up!”
