Top WWE Stars Address The Worst Bumps They’ve Taken

Several other WWE stars spoke to ESPN about their worst bumps. For Kevin Owens, his was a chokeslam onto the ramp.

Owens recalled, “The chokeslam from Braun Strowman onto the steel ramp at SummerSlam 2018. I felt a ringing in my body for about four months after. I don’t know if anything was structurally wrong, but not long after, I took six months off. I don’t know if that was related, but it didn’t help. I felt that for a long time.”

WWE Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley mentioned that she’s taken a lot of rough bumps throughout her career, but perhaps the worst one was during her “NXT” Last Woman Standing match against Raquel Rodriguez in 2021. Ripley revealed that a back bump onto the announcer’s desk didn’t quite go as planned. She hit her back on the edge, and while the table did break, her back hasn’t been the same since.

In a more recent story, Bayley explained how she felt after taking a typical suplex onto the ramp during her Last Woman Standing match against Bianca Belair at WWE Crown Jewel last November.

“That was one of the worst feelings I’ve ever had in wrestling,” Bayley said. “It just knocked the wind out of me. I don’t know what kind of ramp that was. I don’t know if I wasn’t ready for it or what, but it knocked the wind out of me. That was bad. I was not expecting that.”
