Given that his wrestling career spanned over 15 years, it's obvious that Stone Cold Steve Austin has had his fair share of injuries.
The Texas Rattlesnake suffered a legitimate broken neck back in 1997 after the late Owen Hart delivered a botched pile driver to him in a match for the Intercontinental Championship. The injury left Austin temporarily paralysed, leaving his neck to give him troubles for the rest of his career.
Fortunately for the 51-year-old, he retired from in-ring competition in 2003, having his last official match against The Rock at Wrestlemania XIX. Since then, sipping on a couple of Steveweisers has been a lot more relaxing and injuries are certainly less frequent.

Or are they?
The former wrestler shared a picture to his personal Twitter account which showed his elbow ahead of his latest podcast. His elbow? That's an odd way to promote a podcast, what's he on abou - oh God, OH GOD, OH FUCKING GOD.
It's definitely not for the faint-hearted, but, weirdly, it does look like his head.

Speaking on his podcast, he said: "I bent down to pick up a weight and I used my left arm, and my fucking left arm didn't wanna bend. And I'm like 'man, what the fuck's wrong with my arm?' So I grabbed my left arm with my right hand, and it's like someone had buried a golf ball in my elbow."
His followers were rightly grossed out by his injury.
