Hayabusa...

I just recently learned of this high flying Japanese wrestler. I've seen a few of his matches from ECW and a handfull of matches with FMW. I was curious about this particular wresler and decided to do some research on him.

What I found was that he is now paralyzed from an incident that occured in the ring. While I was viewing a few of his matches I accidently came across the match which ended his career. It was such a surreal moment and had goosebumps running down my body. He broke his neck in the ring attempting to perform a lionsault. It was just so sad to to see.

Something that felt heartfelt about it was as he lay on the mat he actually gave his goodbye speech to the crowd only minutes after the incident. I thought it was a real tribute of a class act, someone who wasn't wrestling for the money but for the people.
