News on How the WWE is Currently Dealing With Concussions

The Wrestling Observer has recently provided us with news on how the WWE is currently dealing with concussions. There has been a surplus of talent suffering concussions as of late, even one certain superstar suffering from a fake one, but with this currently growing number of superstars getting injured, WWE officials are wanting people to know how much care and consideration they are taking with them.

If a superstar shows any  indication of a concussion, or is actually diagnosed with one, they are instantly removed from active competition and are not allowed to return until they pass the company’s Impact testing. If talents have passed the test but aren’t immediately put back into the ring, it is because they must also show zero signs of having post-concussion syndrome. This means they have to be able to engage in physical activity without suffering from any headaches, dizziness, or nausea. Only when the Impact testing and further evaluations are complete will a WWE doctor clear them for a return to the ring.
