Former WWE wrestler Chris Nowinski says top star Randy Orton is now advocating for time off to heal from injuries, specifically bumps around the head, after learning more about concussions. Nowinski said on the Busted Open satellite radio show that wrestlers requesting time off for concussions were viewed as soft during his era (2002-2003), but Orton is helping change the culture. "A guy like Randy Orton just didn't buy into it, and I ran into him in March, and he started talking about his concussion experiences and he was like, 'Gosh I didn't know it was that bad”.' He is an advocate for himself now to take time off and so it's interesting to see this turn."
