In a recent chat with Marty Jannetty, wrestling superstar Buff Bagwell admitted he is unable to execute his customary double bicep pose due to an injury. He also highlighted other physical challenges that impinge on his ability to entertain his fans.
Speaking to the WCW icon, Bagwell said, “Supporters often want to see my double bicep pose, Marty. However, my left shoulder doesn’t allow me to do so. It feels like it’s bone on bone. I may need a complete shoulder replacement. My right shoulder has already been replaced. I can no longer perform a double bicep pose, so I just do a single bicep and act like the fan didn’t request a double. They also want me to dance, but I’m unable to do so due to my leg issues. In such cases, I have to simply apologize and say I can’t do it.”
Bagwell stated that he does attempt to please fans by performing his dance moves in slow motion, but he is frustrated that he no longer can perform them as he used to.
