During a recent interview with WebIsJericho ahead of FTR’s rematch with The Briscoes at ROH Death Before Dishonor, Dax Harwood recalled suffering a torn labrum before the first match between them. He still has lingering issues from the injury. Also, he talks about the impact of bumps in wrestling. Here’s what Harwood had to say:

Dax Harwood on suffering a torn labrum before FTR’s first match with The Briscoes at Supercard of Honor:

“I got that [a torn labrum] right before the match with The Briscoes. I took a suplex on the floor, and it’s still very uncomfortable just to sit down. To walk or to run it doesn’t bother me, but to sit down, it just kills me. Every match you have, I don’t care how old you are or how young you are, every match is gonna take a toll on your body.”

On the impact of bumps in wrestling:

“We’ll take a move, even just a shoulder tackle — a shoulder tackle hurts so bad. We’ll take this move, and you’ll watch guys get right back up and smile and laugh. And in my mind, I’m like, ‘I gotta go home to my daughter, and that one tackle, that one bump hurt so bad that I can’t play with her.’ So why are we telling these fans this doesn’t hurt? ‘Watch. The ring is springy, it’s like a trampoline.’ It’s the complete opposite. Everything hurts.”
