Matt Cardona Comments on His Torn Pec Injury
As noted before, Matt Cardona has been out of action for TNA Wrestling and the indies since this past April due to a torn pectoral injury and surgery.
A recent episode of the Busted Open Radio podcast featured Cardona as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Cardona’s thoughts about the exact cause of his recent torn pectoral injury.
“So, long story short, I clotheslined someone over the top rope and I tore my pec. Stuff happens, this ain’t ballet, nobody’s fault. It’s an unfortunate situation. There’s no good time to get injured. But this is not a good time, you know? Especially for me. But, I’m already back on the road making shows like you said. I’m the new General Manager of GCW so I’ll be out of in-ring competition for the next few months. But I’ll still be making towns. I’ve built up a skillset. I don’t need to wrestle. I can cut a promo, I can be the General Manager, I can do commentary, meet and greets. So, GCW this week, I was on the show more times than normal. I opened the show with a promo, I did commentary, I did backstage stuff, I came out at the end so, you know, yeah, of course I can wrestle but so can everybody — well, in theory, they should be able to. I can do everything else so that’s the appeal to me.”
