Tokyo Sports provided another update today on Daisuke Sekimoto, who was hospitalized after being seriously injured during a Big Japan match on 5/29. Now home and recovering, he went to a hospital in Yokohama yesterday for further testing and diagnosis. Traumatic cervical spine injury per translation, no paralysis or muscle weakness, it’s considered a low grade injury which hopefully is good and also no concussion. He will be re-examined in 2 weeks and decisions about going forward will be made then. Sekimoto is out at least this month and will not participate in the annual Fire Festival tournament in Pro Wrestling ZERO1 starting Friday. Further decisions about his future will be made after upcoming exams.
More as it becomes available.
