D-Von Dudley Undergoes Surgery & Can No Longer Wrestle

Legendary tag team wrestler D-Von Dudley currently works for WWE as a producer, having retired from the ring in 2016. Yet, while it isn’t uncommon for a retired star to make an occasional return, that is no longer an option for D-Von as he has just undergone back surgery. The WWE Hall of Famer would divulge this in an Instagram post, where he revealed he has had his spine shifted and now has screws and a plate in his back to repair the damage done by his wrestling career.

They had to fuse L4, L5 and L6. The damage was a lot worse than they thought. The surgery took longer than they anticipated. But God is good and he the DOCTER said I am a new man. I can run, I can jump, I can beat my son Preston in basketball on the basketball court . LOL and racing him down the street lol, he thinks he can beat the old man. They also had to shift my spine a little bit with a curve. Because it was a straight line. That was because of all the wrestling. Then again, all of it was because of wrestling.They put the bolts screws and a plates in my back. They had to go up higher in my back they told me. I was told I could not wrestle anymore because if I do I could do more damage to my back I would have to have surgery again on the upper part. That’s OK I didn’t have plans On going back in there anyway.I would be in the hospital From Tuesday to Friday from My understanding. Unless it changes. Again ,thank you for all the well wishes and love.God is a great all the time . Amen 🙏🏽 and testify.D-Von Dudley

Hopefully, this will be 49-year-old D-Von’s last surgery for the foreseeable future as it was just two years ago he had to be operated on after suffering a stroke. Thankfully, though,  it appears he didn’t suffer any ongoing severe effects from that, and now once recovered from this surgery, he will be able to resume a good quality of life with his young family.
