Buff Bagwell believes he can wrestle again following his right leg amputation and has set his sights on making a return in TNA Wrestling.
Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Buff Bagwell detailed a recent physical therapy session that convinced him a comeback could be possible, explaining how regaining mobility changed his outlook.
“I was getting down on the floor and getting up pretty good in the session, and I started thinking, if I can get down and get up, I can wrestle again,” Bagwell said. “Within a few minutes of physical therapy, two things I learn real quick, I needed two elbow pads, and I need one kneepad. I really think I can do this.”
Bagwell added that he believes a return, even for a limited capacity, is achievable under the right conditions.
“On flat ground, I think I can pull this off and at least have one good match for somebody, and I hope it’s TNA.”
He also revealed that discussions have already taken place, noting he attended a recent TNA taping and is expected to step back into the ring in the near future as part of that process.
Buff Bagwell Has Made Appearances Since His Leg Amputation
