On a recent edition of the “Irish Wrestling & Entertainment” podcast, Lio Rush recalled the injuries that have plagued his career as of late and gave an update. He said,
“I had two slight issues with my shoulder, one separated AC joint and a second injury that required surgery, and that had me out for about 11 months. I can go now, I feel great, I feel I’m in the best shape that I’ve been in a very long time, I feel quick on my feet. But I feel pretty heavy, pretty stocked up, so I’m ready to go.”
Rush has previously retired due to injuries. In the interview, he spoke about going through such problems with patience and trying not to be frustrated. He said,
“I feel like we beat ourselves up more than anybody else. It’s a process just like everything else is a process. It taught me a lot, it showed me a lot about myself. It made me do a deep mental dive and ultimately it helped the recovery process, that’s a big part of it. You can get through things physically, but if you get through things physically and we’re not right up here all the way that process can be slowed down slightly. Be patient with yourself.”
Rush’s most recent match happened last Saturday at the Limitless ‘Bitter Taste’ event in Yarmouth, Maine, where he lost to Alec Price.
