    Still one of the worst injuries I’ve ever seen. Still makes me cringe just thinking about it and how painful it must have been

      Bro I was 8 years old at the Richmond Coliseum watching this live. You could tell how serious it was by the reaction of the crew. He was lifted off his feet and the blood was everywhere

    I remember when the ladder hit him I first didn't think anything happened, then Joey kept his hands over his face while sitting on the apron with blood coming out, that's when you saw something went terribly wrong!

    I love the hardy boys, but that was a reckless spot that you guys should’ve never done it happened too quick neither Morrison or mercury had a chance to block. They both took into the face except Joey, got the worst of it.

    I've watched this on slow motion replay multiple times. The ladder didn't go straight up, it tilted, and Joey caught the high end, Morrison barely even got hit, he didn't protect his face either, he kinda just got lucky, while Joey did not.

    That move was too risky. And Joey Mercury pay the price for making a wrong moves. And if the moves botches Jeff could injured his tailbones and John and Matt could injured their throat or what worse their faces too.
