1. Darren Drozdov



A terrifying incident for WWE and for himself, Darren Drozdov’s injury earns a spot on our list. In a match, facing D’Lo Brown, Droz was supposed to be finished off with D’Lo’s signature move. Although, what happened next was a nightmare.

In the Running Powerbomb move, the rival finds himself in between D’Lo’s legs (head under the crotch too. Oh, the ickiness), only to be thrown into the air and landed on his head. However, during the D’Lo and Droz match, a badly-executed throw had Droz fracturing his neck. While conspiracy theorists claim foul play with the likes of Pepsi and Mirinda thrown onto the stage (What in the world…), poor Droz faced quadriplegia. Occurring in 1999, this injury led to Droz being confined to a wheelchair. So, basically, if life hands you a bad blow to the neck, you go on to become Professor X. Cool, or what?
