TJ Wilson Wrestling Return ‘ Very Unlikely’

TJ Wilson took a Muscle Buster from Samoa Joe and injured his neck in 2015. The injury was life-threatening and Wilson was forced to retire from professional wrestling.

After retiring from the ring, TJ Wilson found a new lease of life in his career after becoming a producer.

In fact, he is now revered as one of the best producers WWE has ever had, especially when it comes to women’s matches.

While chatting with Chris Van Vilet, Natalya talked about the type of injury TJ Wilson suffered and why it prevented him from making contact, let alone competing in the squared circle again.

He had a hanging fracture, which is a C1 injury and has close involvement to the brain, which is why he couldn’t risk it.

”He can’t do anything that would require him to take a bump. So he can show little techniques, and TJ is like a wrestling savant.

I think in the same way that Daniel Bryan did. He sees the industry in wrestling and everything, like he could ask him about a finish from a Bret Hart, match that’s very obscure, he’ll be able to tell you, he could tell you any single girl’s move set.

He could, if you if you said, TJ, when did I have that match? Who was it against what arena what town, he’s like that with moves too.

He just knows how to dissect it and pick it apart. He was working with Nia Jax on something and he was just helping her figure out exactly how to do it so that it was just perfect technique.

And I was like, I didn’t even know TJ ever knew about that move. And he’s just so gifted, and he’s so good, but he just can’t bump.”

TJ Wilson has previously said that working as a WWE producer has helped him cope with retirement.

Wilson is a respected figure behind the scenes and talent loves working with him, which is what matters most to Kidd right now.
