“Makes Me Sick”: Former WWE Star Calls Out the NFL After Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa Rushed to Hospital After Brutal Head Injury

NFL is one of the most popular sports in the USA. Over the years, it has gathered a huge fan base, second to none. Several top teams compete in the league filled with wins, losses, and injuries. Dwayne Johnson bought XFL from Vince McMahon to develop it as a direct competitor to the NFL.

Speaking of injuries, the NFL has witnessed quite a lot. Several players have been injured while playing the sport, but their passion for it keeps returning. In 2018, Alex Smith suffered a gruesome leg injury. Meanwhile, in 2020, the career of Destry Wright ended no sooner than it began after he fell victim to one of the ugliest injuries.

However, the match between Cincinnati Bengals and Miami Dolphins witnessed Tua Tagovailoa suffer a dangerous injury after being chased down and thrown off by Josh Tupou of the Bengals in the first half.

The gruesome injury suffered overshadowed Cincinnati Bengals’ win. Tagovailoa was later stretchered down to the hospital and is reported to have suffered neck and head injuries. He was down on the ground for over seven minutes after being tackled.

Several wrestling and former WWE personalities took to Twitter to show their love and support for the quarterback. Former WWE ring announcer Renee Paquette aka Renee Young showed her love for Tua while also ranting against the protocols of the NFL.

Former WWE Superstar, The Iron Sheik, also came on Twitter to show his love and respect for the 24-year-old young player.

However, the most surprising one came from James Ellsworth, who prayed for Tagovailoa.

Former WWE superstar and author Christopher Nowinski also showcased his frustrations and blamed everyone involved.

Nowinski himself was a victim of a concussion suffered because of a mistimed move by Edge. The concussion would later turn into post-concussion syndrome, leading to his eventual retirement.

Was Tua Tagovailoa deemed fit enough to play?

The 24-year-old had suffered a similar injury last week, which left him dizzy. Also, he was later slated to have a sore back and was listed as questionable for the rest of the week. Last week’s tackle by Matt Milano left him dizzy.

Last week, what seemed like a head injury, was later ruled out by Miami Dolphins. They stated it was a back injury that made Tagovailoa fall. They also clarified that the player was not under concussion protocol. However, playing him so soon after last week’s injury scare was criticized by many, and not taken well by the fans.
