The Latest On Vince McMahon’s Major Spinal Surgery; Details Emerge

In a development previously covered, Vince McMahon, underwent significant spinal surgery last month and has since been on a hiatus to facilitate his recuperation. Recent insights from The Wrestling Observer Newsletter have now clarified that the surgical procedure pertained to McMahon’s back, rather than his neck, contrary to initial speculation. Notably, McMahon’s historical neck surgery in 1994, conducted prior to the steroid trial, had spurred speculations about a recurrence.

The WON report delves further into the circumstances, shedding light on McMahon’s enduring commitment to rigorous physical activity, even as he navigates his 70s. This penchant for demanding tasks, including heavy lifting and rigorous squats, is believed to have contributed to his back ailment. Over time, the cumulative impact of these physically taxing routines on the hips and back could have triggered the need for surgery. Remarkably, McMahon had also grappled with hip issues, a condition he opted not to address through surgery due to his reluctance to relinquish the practice of intense squats. Notably, McMahon once cautioned wrestler Mick Foley against undergoing hip replacement surgery, citing the same rationale.
