Top Dolla: My Leg Is Still Recovering From Botched Dive
On the December 16 episode of WWE SmackDown, Top Dolla didn’t make it over the top rope smoothly on a dive and ended up getting caught up on the rope, flipping over the top, hitting his head on the apron, and then landing on his feet on the outside.
After the show, Top Dolla took to social media to say he was okay.
Speaking to Kay Adams on Up & Adams, Top Dolla was asked if anything had ever gone wrong in the ring, and he referenced the botched dive.
“I went to do a dive one time and my leg was like, ‘You ain’t got that big fella.’ I got caught on the top rope. It happens, it’s live TV, but you have to keep going with it. I’m still recovering, my leg is still recovering from that, and that was months ago. You still have to push through,” he said.
Top Dolla noted that he played an NFL game with a torn meniscus to further highlight pushing through the pain.
Top Dolla is set to compete in the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal on Friday’s WWE SmackDown.
