How Chris Bey Learned To Walk Again

Talk Is Jericho

About this episode

TNA’s Chris Bey shares the incredible story of his near-career-ending neck injury — and how he defied the odds to walk again! He details the moment in Detroit when a missed neckbreaker with Matt Hardy left him paralyzed in the ring, what he remembers from the chaos that followed, and the emergency double-fusion surgery that saved his life. Chris recounts his long road to recovery – from being told he had only a 10–25% chance of walking again, to months of intense rehab, to that emotional first moment he wiggled his toes. He explains how he relearned to move, stand, and finally take his first steps again all while battling pain, fear, and uncertainty. He also talks about the amazing support he received from his TNA family, the outpouring of love from fans and friends across the wrestling world, and how the experience changed his outlook on life, faith, and what it really means to be strong. Plus, Chris reveals details about the documentary being made about his recovery, and whether he’ll ever return to the wrestling ring.
