Jack competed at GCW The Wrld On Lucha against Galeno Del Mal. Unfortunately, the match was stopped by the referee after Cartwheel hit a springboard phoenix splash off the top rope and grabbed his arm. Now, Cartwheel is looking at some time on the shelf for the first time in his wrestling career.
While speaking to The Wrestling Pedigree podcast in a new interview, Jack Cartwheel reflected on the moment where he suffered his injury.
“The thing that’s so interesting about what happened is if you watch it, you watch it in slow-mo, my right foot slips a little bit on the rope, and I come down at a little bit of an angle, which isn’t how you’re supposed to do it, but all things considered, it didn’t seem like that bad of a landing as well until, yeah, it must have been. There just was too much force, too much pressure going down into that elbow that all of this kinetic energy was supposed to go down right onto Galeno Del Mal. It all came down on my elbow instead, and, yeah, it was a very scary moment. I never thought I would like look down at my elbow and kind of see the the imprints of a different part of my bone that was there. I think that was kind of the most bone chilling part is looking down and not seeing that point that you’re usually used to that this point wasn’t there that this point was over this way. So I was seeing the end of this arm over here. It was or this bone. Bone chilling stuff, but what I have to do as Jack Cartwheel is be ready to be upside down for a little bit that I might be upside down, but I’m going to start on my feet and I’m going to end on my feet. This might be just a hitch in the road and these wheels are still rolling.”
