Mark Canterbury recently recalled how he broke his neck during a match against The Road Warriors in WWE. Mark Canterbury, who teamed with Dennis Knight as the Godwinns, was a guest along with Knight on The Two Man Power Trip.
During the conversation he talked about how he took a Doomsday Device in the match against the famed tag team (who worked as the Legion of Doom in WWE) and due to a combination of Hawk not hitting him right and Animal not being able to elevate him properly due to his size, he landed wrong on his neck and broke it.

On breaking his neck against the team: “It happened. And I didn’t stooge nobody out that night.. I knew the state Hawk was in [due to alcohol abuse], so I felt uncomfortable, so I didn’t say nothing. But it happened. Can’t do nothing about it now. [I wrestled] 7 weeks with a broken neck.”
On how the break happened: “Hawk just didn’t hit me right [on the Doomsday Device], with enough force… We’re too big [for that bump.]”
