Henry O. Godwinn Discusses His Career-Ending Injury, More

Mark Canterbury, aka Henry O. Godwinn, spoke with the Register-Herald for a new interview. Check out the highlights below:

On breaking his C7 vertebra in 1997 and returning too early: “The doctor said it was a clean break. He told me to lay around for 10 weeks and ice it. But six weeks went by, and I was back on the road, lifting weights and getting back in the ring too soon. I wrestled for seven weeks with a broken neck.”

On the downsides of the business: “It’s rough in many ways. We’re not seasonal — one year I was on the road 302 days. We sacrifice a lot. We miss a lot, like our kids’ ballgames and birthdays. We’re just gone from our families too much.”

On making a difference in his local community: “I’d like to visit some schools — do talks on things like gun safety and drugs. I saw plenty of drugs when I was on the road — some really tragic stuff…It feels like I’m finishing up where I started out. My life is coming full circle now.”
