New Jack's matches rarely stayed in the ring, and he was known for his propensity not just for violence, but for hurling himself off balconies at his opponents. His frequent foe, Vic Grimes, was cut from the same mold and was known to be fearless.
It was that bravery which nearly proved his undoing. Grimes and New Jack were battling in the rafters above a carefully erected pyramid of folding tables. The idea was for Grimes to be 'thrown' off the balcony and land on the pile of tables, which would break and take some of the momentum out of his fall. However, what happened next left the wrestling fans shocked.
Unfortunately, either Grimes jumped too far or New Jack pushed him too hard. Grimes barely grazed the edge of the table pyramid and nearly broke his neck. Wrestling fans were shocked not just by the spot, but because they could plainly see it had not gone as planned and Grimes was badly hurt.
