BAGWELL HEALTH UPDATE

According to a source who has spoken with the Bagwell family, the former WCW star suffered a broken neck in two places as well as a crushed nose, broken jaw (which is wired shut) and broken cheekbone. Once swelling comes down on the injuries, he is scheduled for neck surgery. The plan is to keep Bagwell sedated and unconscious until his most serious injuries are taken care of. Please keep him in your thoughts folks, as he is nowhere close to being out of the woods following his car wreck on Monday.

Meanwhile, TMZ.com ran the 911 phone call Buff Bagwell's wife made to 911, advising them that her husband had called her fearing he was about to have a seizure. She noted that he had recently had a change in medication, having started a new medication to fight off a "bacteria" that was in his system due to another medication.

Bagwell's wife told the 911 operator, "He's trying to cut back on pain pills, and maybe that’s what's causing [the seizure]"

No other cars were involved in the incident.
