Left leg seems to be the problem right now with nerve damage. Not sure if we will ever see him at Sammy’s old level but this is still a great story.        Discussion Topic: Sammy Sasso update Nick Lecklider added to this discussion on March 17, 2024 https://youtu.be/5SKciy_2rxA?si=FlenFTCZYIpFU0J9 Mini documentary on Sammy. I am willing to bet Sammy wrestles next season. Even if it’s just for one match. His determination will have him walk out at Covelli one last time at minimum.        Discussion Topic: Sammy Sasso update Justin Hayes added to this discussion on March 17, 2024 Any update on the criminal case?        Discussion Topic: Sammy Sasso update Jared Ball added to this discussion on March 19, 2024 Doubtful much is public since they are minors. With the way the Franklin county prosecutor has been handling juvenile crime in central Ohio I’d imagine the punishment won’t be nearly as harsh as many of us think it should be. Maybe I’m off on that.        Discussion Topic: Sammy Sasso update Roe Fox added to this discussion on March 19, 2024 Quote from Jared Ball's post: "Doubtful much is public since they are minors.

Sammy’s appreciation and gratitude for surviving that attack is inspirational.        Discussion Topic: Sammy Sasso update J.P.

DDon't know if this is the same thing, but B10 Network had a nice piece on Sammy last night as well. Great attitude - wish him the very best in whatever he does.        Discussion Topic: Sammy Sasso update Jim Behrens added to this discussion on March 19, 2024 I came across the documentary completely by chance and I was amazed by it. While no shooting is ever good, I had no idea that it was as bad as it was. I can only hope that he has a complete recovery and a great life from here on, wrestling or not.        Discussion Topic: Sammy Sasso update Jeff Fortman added to this discussion on March 19, 2024 I worked in the juvenile sector for a while before switching to adults. We have cases of murder when kids were 15 16ish and at 21 they were out, if not before. The only saving grace these kids get hard time is the media press on it. My guess is with sassos outlook on life he probably wants them to have every opportunity to change. Unfortunately, no matter how much programming / help you give these kids based upon what has been said about their background, the outlook for them is terrible.        ► Add to the Discussion
