Hiroshi Tanahashi is slated to challenge MJF for the AEW World Heavyweight Title in one of the top matches at the AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door pay-per-view event.
Before that, he’ll be taking on Swerve Strickland on the second episode of Collision tonight.
Ahead of the bouts, he spoke with Mirashiru by Dai-ichi Life about dealing with injuries and when he consults a doctor about it. He noted that unless something is torn then he’ll just tape up the nagging injury himself.
“I think it (consulting a doctor) depends on whether the ligament is torn or not. If the ligament is just stretched, then I tape it myself. That’s how I deal with it.”
