Back in June, AEW star Trent underwent successful neck fusion surgery. Trent suffered an injury to his neck during a match with Penta El Zero Miedo on April 21.
On a recent episode of Rasslin’ along with Best Friends Orange Cassidy and Chuck Taylor, Trent was asked how his recovery is going. Trent explained the process in-depth.
“I just gotta wait for my bones to grow together. Do you know what I mean? They put the plate they put the plates in and they take the discs out and then in between they put, he said, it’s like a crushed coral. I don’t understand why it’s not just floating around… Then the bone grows into where the crushed coral is. I think it’s like a little disc thing with the coral in it.”
Trent also revealed in the interview that he had struggled with sleep apnea prior to the surgery. After the neck was cleaned up, he found relief from the condition.
“I got my neck fused. I had so much extra bone growth and stuff, my discs were crushed and my bones were starting to fuse themselves together. I was getting sleep apnea. I was waking up gasping for air in the middle of the night and sometimes, I’d have trouble swallowing my own spit and I just thought it was nothing, but post-surgery — I guess I had so many extra bones and sh*t growing in my [throat] that my sleep apnea was gone.”
There is no estimated timetable for Trent’s return but until then all the members of Best Freind will surely hold down the fort.
