Professional wrestling can be very cruel sometimes. If a move is not performed with the utmost precision, it can lead to dangerous consequences. Then there is a chance of a mishap that can occur without anyone at the fault. It just can be a case of being at the wrong place at the wrong time.
The insane bumps and high-risk maneuvers might be subdued nowadays. But it still finds its admirers all around the globe. And a recent clip is recently going viral on the web which has shocked many fans. The incident bears eerie similarities to the tragic fall of the WWE legend Owen Hart in 1999, which led to his unfortunate demise.
This recent instance is from a match between Molly Spartan and Rhio in the Insane Championship Wrestling. The latter took a hefty fall from a fan stand onto the ring. To make matters worse, the performer’s head hit the ring apron during the fall. This led those watching the encounter live to fear the worst.
