Cesaro’s Teeth Injury Is Actually More Gruesome Than Originally Thought

WWE.com posted an update on Cesaro’s injury from No Mercy, where it appeared that he got his two front teeth knocked out after being catapulted face-first into the ring post.

However, the injury is actually even more gruesome and terrible-seeming than that. The teeth were not broken or knocked out, but actually pushed up into his gums… Jesus…

“Cesaro’s teeth were pushed up into his upper jaw by about 3 to 4 mm,” WWE medical personnel Dr. Daquino explained. “The next step is for him to see a maxillofacial surgeon today, most likely removing the teeth and then having some implants made. So hopeful we will have him up and running after Tuesday or so.”

Here’s how the gross, horrible injury happened:
