In response to "it takes a pretty significant blow to the head or possibly body, to get a concussion." by groiny

I've had 2 concussions. Both involved me getting shoved and flat-back landing on the ground to the point inertia snapped my head back.

it's simple. Any sudden stop will risk a concussion. Each choke slam, each German Suplex carries a risk.

That's not even counting the absurd ladder matches and chair-shots that happen.

a hard ground with no give in it, versus a ring mat, which is slightly padded and gives way on impact. -- nm - groiny Jul 25, 09:03 4

  - the helmets are part of the problem. -- nm - groiny Jul 25, 09:08
- Sure, it's not hard concrete or hard ground, but it's not a foam pit. It's solid. - Will Hunting Jul 25, 09:06
- I am not saying that it does not happen, but no way to the degree of football. -- nm - groiny Jul 25, 09:04
