Remember when Big Show swung Rey Mysterio like a baseball bat into the steel ring post of the WWE ring while he was strapped down to a stretcher?

Rey Rey does!

The future WWE Hall Of Fame legend reflected back on the memorable spot that resulted in him being hospitalized during his recent appearance on the Not About Wrestling podcast.

Featured below is an excerpt from the interview where Rey Mysterio recounted the spot, the aftermath and revealed that Big Show never really seemed to feel all that bad about what happened.

“So I had this match against The Big Show and for some reason he thought it was a good idea to put me and strap me onto a stretcher and he picked that sucker up from the ground, I was strapped up to the board and he swung it like a baseball bat across the pole on the outside. When it hit, obviously he let it go. I was strapped and my head just went boom and it hit on the ground. I had to go to the hospital that day but that was probably one of the worst times. [Big Show didn’t feel bad afterwards]. Not really. But you know what? That’s how I was raised. I was raised tough and I was the only kid in the wrestling class that was eight-years old. I was training with 16, 18, obviously 20-year olds, and I was the only kid in there and I was raised that way. I was always the smallest in training and still to this day in the ring when I wrestle.”
