Leon Slater Reacts To Not Being Caught, Hitting Floor During Scary Dive At TNA Rebellion

Leon Slater is doing fine after a scary-looking dive at TNA Rebellion had fans concerned for his well-being.

Slater was one of six competitors in the Ultimate X match that took place at TNA Rebellion. There, he competed against Moose, KC Navarro, Matt Cardona, El Hijo del Vikingo and Sidney Akeem for the X Division title. At one point in the match, Leon Slater climbed the X structure and did a senton 450º splash on the floor towards all of his opponents.

Normally, Slater would be caught by his opponents on the way down. However, a miscommunication or poor placement led to Slater crashing down hard and hitting the floor without anything to break his fall.

Leon Slater is thankful for everyone’s concern

Several pro wrestlers reacted to a clip of the sequence, which shows AJ Francis and Moose immediately checking on Slater after he hit the floor. Slater has also commented on the spot, issuing the following statement on Twitter/X:

“Thank you everyone that has showed concern or sent a message I appreciate it more than you know,” Leon Slater wrote on Twitter/X. “I LIVE TO TELL THA TALE ? MOMENT MAKA.”

Francis also praised Slater after the match, writing the following on Twitter/X:

“That @LEONSLATER_ Kid is a DEMON ?,” Francis wrote.

Moose also added the following:

“Leon this MOMENT will LIVE forever my friend….Very happy and proud of you. Too bad The Greatest X Division champion of all time was in the match maybe you would have won.”

Moose successfully retained his X Division Championship at Rebellion. Catch up on everything that went down at TNA Rebellion, including NXT star Trick Williams’ surprise appearance, here.
