I think it's the safest thing he could have done, if I'm being honest here. It gives the ref time to stop christian and alert him something is wrong. The out of ring bit is probably the only reason he didn't really fuck his body up. If he'd have continued in the ring, he wouldn't be able to stop christian and tell him what's going on because they would be going at it pretty heavily. IIRC Christian was a hard ass in the ring and didn't let up much. Subverting christians expectations and throwing him out of the ring is a huge sign something is wrong. Keep in mind, Maven is still very new to the scene and throwing someone over the ropes isn't normally something the rookies do, that's saved for the bigger named people and hardcore competitors. Maven has said quite a number of times the best way you can protect yourself is to trust your opponent to take care of you. Christian may not have been everyone's favorite, but he is definitely an incredibly good wrestler.

Crazy that he's still feeling it. I have three injuries.. One I don't feel at all, and two I still feel. First one I dropped a scooter right on my nail of my big toe. My whole toe turned blue/black which was just the blood needing to be drained which I did and it went back to normal color. Toenail then rotted off, and you can smell it when it's coming off.. yuck.. To this day 8 years later I cannot squeeze that toe without it hurting. Second was playing football I dislocated my left ring finger going up to catch a pass. Our QB was a former college QB so he throws pretty hard. It was a bit high and it dislocated my finger. I didn't notice until I tried to pick the ball up and none of my fingers would work. I wouldn't pick the ball up. I pull off my glove and my left ring finger was sideways lol.. It didn't hurt at all though. I pulled up on the finger and it just felt like I was cracking my knuckles and it went right back in and I continued to play. The next day it was swollen a bit, and I had a little pain for about a week, but I didn't miss any games, and it was my left hand so it was no big. Third was a dislocated thumb. THAT ONE HURT, and I still feel this one today when I bend my thumb. It's gotten better after I started doing thumb stretches so it's not so bad anymore. I got it trying to push a 100lbs box across a metal shelf and it hit the middle lip and immediately stopped in its place, but I was still pushing it. Thumb bent all the way back and then went right back into socket. This one though I tore ligaments, and the next day my hand was swollen and bruised. After it healed I was still pretty stiff and it still hurt a year later so a Dr. started me on stretches and some fidget toys that would use the thumb. Today it hurts only when I bend it wrong to bend it too fast, but the pain is down significantly since I started stretches and playing with fidget toys.

Meh I guess you could say he was under utilized but I think he had a much better career then a lot of people want to look back on. He was entrenched in the middle before he left to go to TNA but he was doing some solid work. He showed he could be an upper level dude there and when he came back to the WWE he was in world title (yeah I get it was the ECW belt) programs for a good chunk of the time when he returned. He was the longest holder of that ECW title while it was with the WWE. He got to win the WHC a couple times. Had a solid IC reign too. And before he was forced to retire the first time he was involved in title programs still. I get that he talent to be more in the title picture then he was for a long time like an Edge let’s say but I think people look down on what he did achieve and discount a ton of accomplishments, especially returning at a higher position after he bet on himself to leave for TNA for a few years, because they think he needed to have been even higher up than he was. Comes across almost like what otherwise would be looked upon as a really strong career overall as being underused because we saw what happened with edge and that since he wasn’t elevated quite that high that it was a failure and I disagree with that take. Sometimes just because a dude wasn’t a forever world champ doesn’t mean he was used badly but rather that he filled an integral role for so long in the middle tiers where he got people to care about more than just the main event on the show compared to a lot of other people in that same position who couldn’t do that and simply filled a role that a lot of people really didn’t care much about either way like we’ve had with the IC and US belts for so much of the recent years with some outlier exceptions happening here and there.

Mark my words. WWE will hire him back. He is becoming a huge name again with this channel. He is amazing on the mic. As good as anyone else in WWE right now. Sign him!

He would be better off with AEW. He’d have far more creative control. I’d love to see him thrive with some independence. We all know WWE allows it’s talent zero creative liberty.

I’m on my 3rd month of workers comp right now because I had a very similar break at work. They had to lift me onto a wheelchair. You were jumping over the top rope. I can’t freaking imagine. You boys don’t get enough credit. Much love from Alberta Canada

A baseball slide looks easy but I've seen it go wrong. A kid that my son's team was playing against slid into third base and broke a bone. That happened during the first game of the season. Definitely a terrible way to start the spring.

True. I remember a major league player (I think it was Robin Ventura) breaking his ankle on a slide into a base.

I burned by gym trousers with one. We were playing that game where one person turns people into nonmoving zombies and you're supposed to go back and forth the hall and survive as long as possible. I was one of the last ones and tried to baseball slide under a zombie's grip. It kinda failed and I noticed why, my polyester trousers couldn't take the friction of the floor and had melted while my skin caught the floor...

I know exactly what you mean about the effects beyond the actual break to the bone Maven - I broke my ankle in 2010 (to be more clear it was broken by somebody else when playing football), and had to get screws in the ankle (still there today). The bones healed fully within 9 months, but the longer term effects have been knock-on issues with my knee due to compensating with the way I've moved on it, and resulted in further surgeries in both 2019 and earlier this year. So more than a decade on the effects of that ankle break remain, but not with the bones. If you've been having similar long-term issues with soft tissue I feel for you man, as most people don't understand this having not gone through it themselves.

It sucks that Maven was seriously injured and he felt obligated to risk even worse injury by continuing the match because the megalomaniac running the company cares more about kayfabe than the health of his "independent contractors."

I think it would be fun to see you and Christian go at it some more. These days he is a father figure helping out those who have no fathers over in AEW and setting them on the right path. Maybe someone from his past could set him a bit straight. Maybe if more people from his past comes to confront him, maybe, just maybe, he could have a change of heart or you all can beat him a lesson into him

I broke my ankle the exact same way, and I still remember to this day how bad it hurt. My angle felt mushy like a soft sponge when i tried standing up. The broken bones healed pretty fast but i had 3rd degree tears on all the 4 major ligaments holding my ankle in place which took almost a year to completely heal on their own. Yup didn't opt for surgery, let my ankle heal the old natural way with a cast and physiotherapy. My respect to you, Maven, for pulling this off.

Notes that I get from this vid: 1. Guy catapulted off the ropes with a broken freakin leg 2. Imagine what kind of momentum Maven coulda got if he didn't break his leg here. Making out with Torrie Wilson, entering a feud with Tajiri, fans got the maven signs. This injury here might have destroyed the whole push. 3. There are people that don't even make 50k today, so I'm thinking the 50k in the early 2000s didn't suck that bad.

Man I swear I really hope someone from Fox becomes aware of your channel and see's just how proffesional and everything you are now. And gives you an opportunity to be a part of the product again as either a presenter or announcer. You would fit so well and would be a great way to finish things up properly.

Hey Mav, alot of respect for you and Christian for pulling thru and coordinating under pressure. I can't imagine the pain of jumping off a broken leg or even constantly banging against the mat. Respect for the pull thru and respect for Christian for knowing what to do. I also have a question for future videos. Does commentary also know how the match is suppose to play out, as far as moves, or do they just react unknowingly to what's happening in the ring?
