WWE's R-Truth Triumphs Over Severe Quad Injury and Life-Threatening Infection

After multiple surgeries and a grueling recovery, the wrestling superstar returns to the ring, overcoming the threat of career-ending amputation.

WWE Superstar R-Truth suffered a severe quad injury during a match in November 2022, which led to a life-threatening infection.
The infection resulted in a hole in his knee, caused by five different bacteria, including MRSA and staph, threatening not only his career but also the possibility of amputation.
R-Truth underwent multiple surgeries and extensive treatment, including the use of a wound VAC and a PICC line for extended medication delivery.
Despite the physical and emotional ordeal, R-Truth managed to maintain a positive mindset with the support of his family and faith.
R-Truth has since returned to wrestling, continuing his legacy as a 53-time WWE 24/7 Champion and a two-time WWE U.S. Champion.
