Veteran WWE referee Scott Armstrong took to social media on Sunday to reveal that he recently underwent successful surgery to repair his L4-L5 discs in his spine.
Armstrong noted that he suffered the injury while helping someone move a recliner and he turned the wrong way, herniating two discs in his spine in the process.
“My story: few weeks ago I helped someone move,” wrote Armstrong via his official Twitter page yesterday. “I lifted a recliner n turned at the same time…WRONG MOVE..forgot I wasn’t 21 again!”
Armstrong continued, “Herniated L4-L5 disc n surgery! Out till June! Now: baby steps n lift nothing over 10lbs 2 weeks. Like I said BABY STEPS #familymeansEVERYTHING.”
