      @@Illusive1313 the amount of stab wounds really don't have a thing to say about self-defense. When a guy is on you, stabbing you with a pair of scissors, you stab back unitl either he doesn't move or you are free to run. In a life threatening situation you can't be expected to reason like "oh, I'll stab him 2 times, otherwise I could get sued." You just keep stabbing until you feel safe.

      Vader is the ONE big man who has defied ALL odds his whole career. And probably the busiest wrestler of all time. This man never stopped. From WWE, WCW NJPW NoA TNA, he was ALWAYS doing something. It's amazing that he was able ot keep up with that work ethic. If there is one person who can defy the doctors odds, it's Leon. He maybe big, but that man is strong as all hell. I think he will make it!

Ric Flair is on record as saying that after 25 + years in the business, as many times as Vader hit the Moon Sault off the top rope he has NEVER hurt him... He said it always felt like a pillow. Vader was VERY Good at protecting people from his huge size and strength, that is why the greats in the business loved working with him. He was a MONSTER of a man,.. a MASSIVE heel, and fucking A+ Good at doing his job!!!!

      Just a heads up.. if you are in that situation... most of us don't have thumbs the size of Leon.. If that happens, start yelling for a tampon from the ladies to plug the hole. In military training we were taught how to plug bullet wounds with tampons during urban assault situations as they are readily available If none are, the fingers are the next option.

      Dave Johnson Considering how far back they're trying to remember this stuff, then think of all the drugs, all the alcohol, all the concussions, etc. plus the inevitable health decline of your 50s+. They aren't lying, dude, they're telling events as they remember them happening, and it just so happens that, after multiple decades, head trauma, substance abuse, etc. the events that took place are a little fuzzier for some guys than others. They're misremembering, not trying to be deceptive. Fact is, we'll never know EXACTLY what happened in these stories unless it's caught on tape, we can only piece together patterns from multiple stories to get a general idea of what went down.

    Vader is remembering it wrong, from what Sid, 2 Cold Scorpi and Vader said in previous shoots, when they fought at the bar it got broken up and they all went up to there rooms. Sid later went to Arn's room, he said he wanted to just talk it out but Arn opened the door and straight away stabbed Sid. Scorpio got there first and got Sid to stop stabbing Arn by saying 'you're killing him'. Sid looked down and saw the blood and freaked out even more, he ran down the corridor, Vader was asleep at the time and woke up only after he heard Sid smash a glass door which he couldn't open.
