In a recent interview with Renee Paquette, AEW wrestler Willow Nightingale talked about overcoming a broken neck injury.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On her scar from her neck surgery: “I’m a wrestler, at the end of the day like I think our scars, all of the physical ailments that we carry with us are like a part of it, and it’s part of our lore if you will, but I never wanted to shy away from it or hide it because if was a pretty major obstacle for me to get over. That was probably the first time in wrestling where I really did think to myself ‘maybe I should quit.’”
On overcoming the injury: “This very tiny voice in my head was like ‘just keep going, You got this far, you broke your neck, like make it for something.’”
