Under The Knife: Vince McMahon Reportedly Undergoes "Extensive" Surgery

That’s a serious issue. Wrestles are athletes who work hard every time they are in the ring and often get rather banged up in the process. While training and experience can make things a lot safer, there is no way to completely guarantee a wrestler’s health in the ring. This is true no matter how often you wrestle, and now a rather famous occasional wrestler is having to get fixed up.

According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful.com, WWE Chairman Of The Board Vince McMahon, 77 years old, underwent “major” spinal surgery last week. The surgery reportedly lasted five hours and was described as “pretty extensive”. There is no word on how long McMahon might be away from his jobs at WWE, though he only appears at occasional television tapings in the first place.

McMahon can be quite the force when he is around. Check out some of what he does when he is in front of a WWE camera:

Opinion: It’s almost hard to fathom the idea of McMahon having to undergo this kind of a procedure, as he seems almost immune to major medical issues a lot of the time. Hopefully he is back on his feet sooner than later, but also hopefully he is willing to slow things down a bit. Having that kind of a surgery is a serious issue and resting a bit more should help him keep going.
