A pattern has emerged on this planet of professional wrestling. At any time when an aging wrestler is coping with severe pain and limited mobility, there’s one person they turn to – Diamond Dallas Page. DDP’s transition from WCW legend to WWE Hall of Famer to healer of the people is nothing in need of astounding.
One in every of Page’s contemporaries, D-Von Dudley, has been coping with back pain for years since his retirement from in-ring competition. Speaking with Chris Van Vliet on his “Insight” podcast, Dudley talked concerning the severity of his injury.
“Mainly what happened was I had a difficulty even after the back surgery where all the pieces was tight. I could not walk barely, I used to be walking with a limp, like a few of those old timers you’ll see who never really took care of their bodies, and they might pay for it in the long run. I could not even exit with the family without hanging on to something. Then, someone told me, perhaps you need to attempt to call Dallas.”
The tag team legend talks about Page’s fame and the outcomes he got after working with him.
“Take a look at what Dallas did for thus many individuals. He principally helped out Scott Hall, Jake Roberts, Butterbean,” Dudley said. “He sent me two documentaries on food and said, I would like you to observe it. And I watched it and realized just how bad food is nowadays, how we expect our food is healthy, but it surely’s not … DDP Yoga is the best thing I’ve ever done. It got to the purpose where after two to a few weeks, I used to be in a position to walk.”
Page’s legacy outside of the ring may surpass what he achieved inside it. He recently opened up about helping AJ Styles together with his recovery.
