It said he was tired of experiencing pain in the leg from a 2020 car wreck.  So chose to have it snipped.

Amputation is always an option. That's what I tell my wife when she complains of headaches.

Wrestling is fake. This is all part of a storyline.

Buff lost his leg in a pec vs leg match with Scott Steiner. He will win the leg back at SummerSlam.

You’re all a bunch of marks.

"Buff Bagwell" never heard of him. Sounds like a gayporn actor name, but he is / was a wrestler

From what I read he was DUI when he crashed into a mall?
Dumb idiot, and of course after the crash he started drinking even more. What a cliche guy

"He has an impressive 32,000 followers on YouTube" hahaha

I used to see him around at the Main Event gym in Marietta and the Powerhouse Gym in Alpharetta.  Mostly talking and laughing.  I never saw him working out much.  (This was long after WCW closed and the WWE had fired him after one match)  I posted about it before, but he had the damn skinniest legs I have ever seen in my life.  I don't mean the usual "wrestling is an upper body sport so don't work legs" kind of mentality like Rude had.  But just genetically, they were like popsicle sticks.  Now this was after he had that disaster with the calf implants.  Where he had implants put in and then shortly afterwards had to have them removed because his body rejected them and developed an infection.  This could be why he had horrible legs later on.

He did independent shows for a while and then worked as a gigolo.  He had some tv expo about his time doing that.

Training legs uses more energy and needs more recovery and they used to be wrestling and travelling almost every day.

yes i think there´s some truth to this but you know exercises like Zercher Squats would have been beneficial for them

I believe it were injuries from a car crash, back in 2018.

Buff got done dirty when he got fired WWE.  He and Booker were set up to fail.  Though apparently Buff was really disliked by a lot of people and that was part of the reason he got canned.

I saw an interview clip were Buff said he didn't train heavy to avoid injuries.  Kind of ironic now.  Dude did have a hell of a physique in his prime though.  Once saw him described online as having "a back too big for his body"  ;D
