Shawn Spears discussed in an interview with Chris Van Vliet his infamous chair shot to Cody Rhodes at Fyter Fest 2019 that left him bleeding from the back of his head. Here is what he had to say:
“It’s funny because if the chair was gimmicked, then nothing would have went wrong, so clearly the chair wasn’t fully gimmicked, it’s a steel chair, there’s gonna be a part of it that isn’t doctored in any way, shape, or form and that was a concern of ours throughout the evening, we were going through the chairs, there was two separate ones, there was one chair and then there was a backup chair just in case we lost one or whatever like that, they were both the exact same, nothing different, it’s just one of those things where a fraction of a centimeter was off, either I was too far away, and when I asked even Cody, he said, ‘I leaned in too much,’ and it’s like, ‘No, it’s no one’s, really, fault, it was a moment in time, it’s what we did, I swang for the fences, you leaned in,’ and it’s just that one little bit caught him.”
