Bobby Fish Details Tearing His Triceps During WWE NXT: WarGames 2020

Bobby Fish has detailed suffering a torn triceps during the WarGames match at NXT TakeOver: WarGames in 2020.

Fish sustained the injury just a few minutes following his entrant into the bout, when a piece of the steel structure pierced into his elbow and severed the muscle.

While the injury wasn't a traditional torn triceps, Fish would learn of the severity of the setback following the violent outing.

Speaking on the All Real Wrestling Podcast, Fish said: "I tore my tricep is what it was called, but it was actually that my tricep was severed. So I had a big laceration on my elbow in that match. Whatever it was, that caused the laceration, cut through the skin and cut deep enough that it actually severed part of my tricep tendon from the bone. So people will tear their tricep, but it'll be you know, a tear, it'll be ripped away.

"Mine was cut away as if you took a pair of scissors or an Exacto knife and chopped it. That happened maybe 10 minutes into the match. So like, I didn't know, the extent of the injury. I just knew like, something doesn't feel right back there. However, part of it was still attached. So because I thought like, man, 'Did I tear my tricep?' But it hadn't rolled up the way that you would expect a tear to roll up. So I didn't think that that was the case.

"It wasn't until the match was over, and Tara, one of our medical staff, was cleaning out my elbow to make sure there was no infection and she noticed because where she was looking, she should have seen tendon, and instead, she saw a bone and knew tendon was supposed to be covering a bone she was seeing and she's like, 'Okay, your tendons not attached.' So I went into what would amount to emergency surgery. It was supposed to be that evening. It ended up being the following morning."
