Wrestler shot 3 times saving rape victim
 

Former WWE , WCW and ECW wrestler Perry Saturn will make his wrestling return after suffering a very serious injury this past April. This was a very serious, and private situation, which he did not want public until he was able to recover.

We are proud to announce that he has recovered, and will return to the wrestling ring on Sept 17th for USA Pro (Jamaica, NY @ The Amazura Concert Hall).

In April of 2004 Perry Saturn was driving his girlfriend to work when he heard what he thought was an argument next to a vehicle. When he approached the vehicle, he saw two men trying to restrain a woman as they were raping her. Without hesitation, he grabbed both men off her, and started fighting with them. As he was able to get the woman free from her attackers, he felt a burning sensation in his neck. He thought originally it was a cut stemming from a punch. However, he learned soonafter he was shot three times in the neck with a 25 caliber handgun.

Perry Saturn now has a steel plate and 3 stainless steel screws where his C-5, C-6 and C-7 vertabre in his neck were badly injured. The good news is that after a very tough and extensive amount of physical therapy and training, he is able to return to wrestling. When you think about it, it's amazing he is even alive, or even able to walk!

Unfortunately, we learned that he did not have medical insurance, and has incurred quite a bit of medical expenses. I'm sure if needed, the wrestling community will open up their arms and assist if the expenses become overwhelming.

As far as his attackers, one man was arrested for attempted murder and rape. That case is still ongoing. No word if the other individual was arrested as well.

On behalf of everyone here at Wrestling-News.com and USA Pro Wrestling, we are very proud of your actions, your determination to recover, and your instinct without thought to risk your life like you did.

If anyone would like to send a private message via email, you can send them to [email protected] and the messages will be forwarded to Perry.

Too bad the highlight of his WWE career was a love triangle with Goldust's ex-wife and a wooden mop :1orglaugh

:thumbsup

nice to know that there are still ppl out there who will help strangers out!:thumbsup

Yeah i am fuckin impressed. I wish there were a lot more people out there like that. I wish him the best and i know people will find it in there hearts to help out a guy who would do something like that:thumbsup

Dude what a good guy. I will donate money to his medical fund. He just got a new fan. :thumbsup

He was also one half of one of the greatest tagteams in ECW, The Eliminators...he can mat wrestle, high fly, high spot and just plain out brawl with the best of them...

It's a shame that WWE turned him into a psychotic pussy and totally mishandled him...here was a guy who worked his ass off and would run with any gimmisk he was strapped with...it's a shame his career went no where in WWE and an even bigger shame this had to happen to him.

I've always been a fan of the wrestler, now I'm a fan of the man...

:thumbsup
so well said
je's just great in the ring - and amazing out if too it now appears.

Absoultely amazing physique - imagine thinking the bullets were a cut!
thats fucking hardcore!!!

wasn't he also a navy SEAL?

thats an amzing story:thumbsup

not sure if he was a seal or not but I do remember reading or hearing during one of the shows that he was in the military, who knows though, sometimes the line between fake and reality as far as there backgrounds go is very thin.

where's raven?




nevermore

great story

Total Elimination had to be one of the better looking tag finishers, esp. when the opponent sold it :thumbsup

What a difference though: Perry, a real-life hero; Kronus, a drunk in a trailer.

I think he was...

lmao i remember that way to funny:1orglaugh

damn, no way in hell i would take that guy on.. even with a gun

That dude looks and acts like a fairy every time I see him on TV.
