Lio Rush retires from Wrestling

[Apoho Creed]

I'm so shocked right now I can't believe it. Do what makes you happy I say Rush good luck in life brother.​

The fuck?

 

[Canadian Dragon]

The fuck?

no but seriously the fuck!

 

[RDK]

must have been a bad injury

 

[Marty McFourth]

Good luck to him. Definitely didn't expect this after seeing him in AEW recently.

Well it was a perfectly okay run for the fellow.

At his age, almost impossible to buy this as being permanent. An AC separation in most cases is not anything career threatening after all. Seems to me like he mostly just wants more time with his family and to try to make it in a different field that he's also passionate about. My guess is once his kid is a few years older, he'll be ready to get back to business.

So let me debut on your PPV, Tony. And now that you've given me that opportunity, I'd like to formally retire. Thank you.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

At least I feel even more justified in laughing my ass off when he was the surprise at DON.

 

[Deezy]

TK rescinded his offer......shouldn't have publicly dragged Mark Henry and made him an Uncle Tom

Karma a motherfucker ain't it?

Here's his full statement:

I have written and erased this post so many times purely out of not being able to wrap my head around this. The moment I went home in a sling, I kept saying to myself “this was like any other time I got a little bruise or strain and I will shrug it off and continue on my new journey.” Once the pain subsided and I started to feel just how uncomfortable it was to feel my arm hanging from my body, I sunk into an immediate and rapidly growing depression because I knew something was wrong.
Got the news that I’d be taking some time off due to this injury. Me thinking it would only affect my wrestling obligations, I still tried to go on about my days as I knew them. Realized just how much this would affect my everyday life. For anyone who knows me, you know that I work endlessly for me and my family. It became more and more frustrating everyday finding little things that I could no longer do. Like simply putting on a shirt and a much harder fact to deal with, not being able to pick up my newborn son...
Now here comes the part that kept me up every night since #DoubleorNothing...knowing that I just made my surprise debut in one of the most exciting times in my career. That part sucked. But I’m grateful. Grateful for the opportunities that I’ve had this past year since my WWE release. So cool of #AEW still wanting to sign me despite separating my AC in the Casino Battle Royal. Which would have led to me being the first person in history to be signed to two major wrestling organizations simultaneously. This is an unexpected turn down a road I would have and could have never saw coming...
But I’m looking at this as a blessing in disguise. Since the injury, it’s given me some time to think. Think about what I want in life. What I want for my wife and my kids, and what’s going to make me happy as far as my mental health is concerned. The timing of this injury has forced me to to stop and reevaluate and ultimately it’s resulted in making the decision to retire from professional wrestling...
Thank you to the fans who have fought it out with me for the past 7 years and the people in my corner. Thank you to all the promoters and friends that ‘ve met along the way who believe in me and my vision. This has been a great ride, but it’s time to get off and do what truly makes me happy. Due to contractual obligations with NJPW, I will be making final appearances once I am healed. But for now, thank you all from the Bottom of my heart and I’ll see you all soon.
For future business inquiries, email RushLioRush@gmail.com.

Hope when he's finishing up those NJPW dates once he's heeled he just says fuck it and re-signs to keep going tbh
