Following surgery on Tuesday, it is expected that former ECW champion Bobby Lashley will be out of action for three to five months. The good news is that he didn't have a torn rotator cuff.

WWE.com is reporting that during a standard Wellness policy physical, an abnormal accessory pathway to the heart (Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome) was discovered in US Heavyweight MVP. It is a potentially life threatening condition that could lead to a heart attack if untreated. He will be able to continue wrestling because according to WWE.com, MVP "underwent a precarious radio frequency treatment this past Monday – a procedure that is equally dangerous in that one in 1,000 individuals die during it. Next week, tests will be performed again to see if the procedure was a success."

WWE.com says that the testing took place at the Great American Bash. The body of the story is written to explain how The Wellness Policy caught this condition early. A cynic might say that mentioning the Bash and the benefits of the policy are a calculated move by WWE. A cynic may be right, but you also can't deny that the policy did what people want it to do either.

Following elbow surgery, Hardcore Holly was sent to Ohio Valley Wrestling on a rehab stint. He told the company that he had no feeling from the elbow to the hand. At this point, his elbow injury is considered career threatening. Apparently WWE had plans to bring him back to television to form a tag team with Eugene as an odd couple team, with a monkey as their manager.

More on Bob Holly:

From Wrestlezone (http://www.wrestlezone.com/article.php?articleid=190778853):
Bob "Hardcore" Holly might be done as an active pro wrestler. Holly is reportedly having issues with his arm as a result of recent surgery and was slated to return to the Smackdown brand very soon.

The word that made the rounds at WWE's TV tapings yesterday was that his condition got worse after the surgery and he has having problems with feeling in his arm. A majority of the blame is being put on the doctors who operated on him.

[The Dark Vampire]

I'm pretty sure WWE will keep him around in some kind of backstage or trainer role he's been very loyal to them over the last 15 or so years

[Denzil]

Going by his reputation he can go down to Developmental and beat the crap out of the new recruits. ;)

PWInsider.com is reporting Candice Michelle was diagnosed with a concussion and a broken collar bone following the scary bump she took on RAW last night in the match with WWE Women's Champion Beth Phoenix.

[Spade]

Yeah she fell pretty hard.

[NW77]

The good thing is that she will be out for few weeks instead of several months. I read she will be out for like 4-6 weeks from Wrestlezone. Oddly enough, it said she fell on her face before on the recent RAW tour in the UK beside last night. She must be a unlucky person to have another injury that is quite the same. I hope it don't make her lose her confidence in wrestling thought. Some injury in sports can make some people concern with getting hurt again, that they can't focus on playing hard anymore.

[Kane Lives]

Candice Michelle was diagnosed with a concussion and a broken collar bone


Not as bad as I thought she would be injured when I first saw that fall. But still, it's bad enough.

Does anyone have a clip from that match? I turned channels for a moment and happened to miss this :mad:

Here's a gif of it

[NW77]

Now source are saying she will be out 6-8 weeks instead of 4-6 as I mention eariler. Another good thing is she won't need surgery at all for her collarbone. I thought she would need surgery on that, 'cause many football players that hurt their collarbone needed surgery. Get well soon, Candice!!

[Nick Michalak]

They probably just need to set the bone, and then, bandage her up or put on a brace of sorts. In any case, she'll be back for the New Year. Until then, maybe Mickey James will get another shot at the title. Real shame she's barely been seen or used since losing the title many, many, many months ago.

-NJM

[Apocalypto]

I don't see how they have much of a choice but to have her fued with Mickey, there are no other heroic faces left with Candice out of the picture for a while.

[NW77]

Until then, maybe Mickey James will get another shot at the title. Real shame she's barely been seen or used since losing the title many, many, many months ago.



Same here. I want Mickie to have another title shot. She is great in the ring beside being cute as a button. They should have her resume her feud with Beth when Beth was a face & Mickie was a crazy heel before it was canned when Beth hurt her jaws. I want to see that feud again.

Looking at the video again, Beth grab the ropes that many done when the other is on the turnbuckle. But for some reason, Michelle's legs fall awardly the rope before she fell on the mat. I always seen wrestling fall on just the turnbuckle & not their legs on the rope, falling to the mat. Anyone else have a theory on how Michelle fall compare to others who fall on the turnbuckle instead?

Matt Hardy’s face was made up to look worse than it was on last night’s pay-per-view. While the real injury did cause some bruising under one eye, it was not near as bad as it looked during his backstage segment with MVP. However, the stitches that Hardy had to receive because of the injury were very real and were the reason he was pulled off of the pay-per-view.

- Gregory Helms issued the following statement on his MySpace page:

"Hey everyone! First of all, I want to thank everyone for the over-whelming support that's been shown me since my injury. I know I'm way past due in letting my supporter's know how I'm doing, so without further ado (you have to say that with a foreigh accent of some sort) here we go. :) The neck seems to be doing good. But, and there's always a "but" isn't there, the difference in my neck injury and others in the sport of pro wrestling that have suffered a similar injury is the amount of actual nerve damage that I sustained. So while my neck seems to be okay, I have nerve damage in both arms that pretty much keeps me in pain on a daily basis. On a good day, it's tolerable, on a bad day I can't even hold a book. Which for someone who reads as much as I do, that is a significant pain in the ass as well as arms. On a bad day, video games are completely out of the question, which doesn't seem to bother me too much as Talia takes entirely too much enjoyment at beating my ass in whatever video games we play. Although, she has learned first hand why I've never ever lost a game of Trivia Pursuit! :) The physical therapy at this point mainly consists of walking and slight stretching movements to keep the old "bag of bones" from getting too stiff and out of shape. Nerve damage, it appears heals at about 1/10 the rate of muscle or bone, so it's just going to take time to fully recover, how much time is the question? So there ya go, once again, thanks for all the support, I look forward to coming back and kicking people in the head as soon as I can! :) I'll be posting another blog soon letting you know about what I've been up to lately. Trust me, it's been wild!"

From WZ:


Candice Michelle is tentively scheduled to return to the road on 12/29.

[Darth Sinister]

Man I didn't know his injury was that bad.

It was bad, but he made it worse by ignoring it and continuing to wrestle until he couldn't do it anymore. Then when he got it checked out, he found that if he didn't get it worked on, he could become paralyzed.

[freako104]

Then I hope he does not come back, he should not have to be a parapalegic. I will admit though, that, I will miss seeing him in the ring and on the mic. But for his own safety and health, I think he should stop before more damage is done.

Rory McAlister of the Highlanders tag team suffered a complete pectoral tear and underwent surgery yesterday to repair it. Here's what he had to say about it on his Myspace page:

I have received countless e-mail asking how I am doing as of late and asking how my injury is. Well I had no clue anyone knew I was hurt as I never told anyone and I don't read the dirt sheets so I have no clue how they know but it's always nice that people show they care.
In a match recently I hurt my chest. Didn't know how, but I knew something was wrong. WWE had me see a surgeon immediately and after an MRI I discovered I had torn my right pectoral completely off the bone. I went in for surgery yesterday morning and all went well. The tear was worse than first thought but the Doc assures me it has been anchored securely and he is more than happy with the results. I had an amazing team of surgeons and I have an amazing physical therapy team. Both of whom are the teams the Cincinnati Reds use. I made the joke that I hoped they know medicine better than the Reds know baseball but that joke dropped like a lead fart.
I am totally confident to be back very soon in better shape than I left both physically and mentally. Again thank you for all the e-mails of well being. I will keep you all updated!

More on Rory:

Rory McAlister underwent surgery yesterday to repair a pectoral tear - which was torn completely off the bone. McAlister posted a blog on his MySpace page saying that he doesn't know how the injury happened, but he had incredible pain in his chest. WWE immediately sent him for an MRI. The tear was discovered and he went for surgery. During the surgery, surgeons realized his injury was worse than expected. No word on when he'll be back, but it won't be anytime soon.

Rey Mysterio suffered an apparent biceps injury at last night's SmackDown/ECW brand house show in Santiago, Chile. He is returning to the states to be medically evaluated. Mysterio is scheduled to wrestle Edge for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship this Sunday at No Way Out.

Here is WWE.com's statement regarding Mysterio's sudden injury:

Rey Mysterio injured during South American tour
Written: February 14, 2008

Rey Mysterio’s quest to regain the World Championship may have suffered a severe setback in Santiago, Chile, on Wednesday night.

The injury occurred during Wednesday’s live event at Arena Santiago, where Mysterio teamed with Kane against Zack Ryder & Curt Hawkins. During the tag contest, Rey suffered an apparent injury to his right arm, specifically his bicep. Clearly in pain, the Master of the 619 gutted it out and finished the match, then was quickly examined by WWE athletic trainer Jason Crivello upon leaving the ring.

Mysterio flew back to the United States late Wednesday night, and is currently in Gulf Breeze, Fla., waiting to meet with world-renowned surgeon Dr. James Andrews, who will determine the extent of the injury. Regardless of Dr. Andrews’ findings, Mysterio has his heart set on competing this Sunday night at No Way Out, where he is scheduled to face Edge for the World Championship.

Stay with WWE.com as more updates become available regarding Mysterio’s condition.

[nottidelterrore]

Poor Rey. Seems to be getting hurt a good bit lately. I hope it's nothing serious & that he can recover quickly.

[NW77]

Dang!! Rey really get hurt a lot. It like he is so injury-prone. I wonder how much his body going to handle this if this kind of thing keep happening. I imagine he might be done before he even reach 40 yrs. old. :|

[Denzil]

That is a damn shame.

He isn't that long back from getting his knee fixed and this happens.

Sources - Wrestling Observer, WrestleZone

We reported yesterday that on Wednesday night, Rey Mysterio suffered what is believed to be a torn right bicepsin in a match in Santiago, Chile. Mysterio flew back to the U.S. to meet with Dr. James Andrews. He hasn't had an MRI done. His mentality right now is that at all costs, he does not want to miss Wrestlemania, so if surgery is recommended, he's going to have a major decision to make. We won't know about Sunday's PPV until after he sees Andrews and they determine the severity of the injury. They could have him show up and do an injury angle because there are no TV's left before No Way Out, where he was scheduled to face Edge for the World title. Surgery would put him out around six months.

So, no real updates yet.

[freako104]

I hope Rey will be able to compete tommorrow. And hope Rory comes back soon

[ChoKo]

Regarding Rey Mysterio's apparent biceps injury, it is being said that the muscle rolled up the arm, which would be a full tear. Mysterio is looking to avoid surgery at all costs because he doesn't want to miss WrestleMania. No word yet on what will happen with his title match with Edge at No Way Out tomorrow night.


Source - WZ

[Nick Michalak]

I don't think there's anyway to avoid surgery with a torn muscle. They're not gonna re-attach it with therapy or drugs.

-NJM

[Denzil]

Rey better be careful and think of his future rather than just WM. He may work with that injury and make it much much worse.

[ChoKo]

If Rey's not careful, he could injure himself more by trying to compete with such an injury.

[Special Killa B]

If Rey really wants to do WM, then I think he should just drop out of tonight's match and rest up till WM. They can easily find a replacement for Rey considering Edge is expected to retain the WHC anyway.

[ChoKo]

As we reported late last week, Rey Mysterio suffered an injury to his right bicep muscle. The injury occurred during Wednesday’s live event at Arena Santiago (Chile), where Mysterio teamed with Kane against Zack Ryder & Curt Hawkins.

Clearly in pain, he gutted it out and finished the match, then was quickly examined by WWE athletic trainer Jason Crivello upon leaving the ring.

Mysterio flew back to the United States late Wednesday night. He met with world-renowned sports surgeon Dr. James Andrews to determine the extent of the injury. No word yet on how that went.

WWE.com reports that regardless of Dr. Andrews’ findings, Mysterio has his heart set on competing tonight at No Way Out. As of this writing, he is still scheduled to compete. Instead of pulling him from the match completely, there has been talk of doing an angle tonight where Edge injures Mysterio to keep him out of action for the next several weeks.

Whether he returns in time for WrestleMania depends on Dr. Andrews' diagnosis. Hopefully he did not suffer a full tear. Last year the Undertaker suffered a biceps tear and was out of action for four months.

Rey needs to rest up. He's going to severely injure himself if he wants to keep pushing himself like this.

ADDED:
From WrestleZone:

There are fears in WWE about Rey Mysterio's ability to stay healthy. He had been working a reduced travel schedule as requested, and yet suffered another serious injury. Despite the torn biceps, Mysterio, 33, doesn't want to go through with the surgery right now, and prefers to work Wrestlemania this year since he missed the event last year.

[Nick Michalak]

Rey's only gonna make things worse. If he doesn't get that surgery right away, that bicep might get entirely worse before WrestleMania, and he could end up being on the shelf for longer. I understand not wanting to miss out on WrestleMania, but there are more important things to worry about. At worst, that bicep could get fucked up to the point where it's career ending.

-NJM

[ChoKo]

From WZ and prowrestling.net:

Rey Mysterio will not be wrestling at WrestleMania after all. Mysterio is scheduled to undergo surgery to repair his torn biceps muscle this Friday, reports prowrestling.NET. He will miss between four and six months.

After missing WrestleMania last year, Mysterio had his sights set on wrestling at this year's event as there were plans to do a Mysterio & Floyd Mayweather vs. Big Show & Shane McMahon match. As a consolation prize, Mysterio, who was seen briefly shown backstage on Raw tonight with Mayweather, has been been assured that he will still be involved in the angle in some way.

Best of luck to Rey.

Paul London hasn't fully healed from his foot injury, which has put him out of action since the middle of December. In case you didn't notice, he never actually tagged in his return match on the 2/4 Raw. He didn't work the taping for the next week's show, and at last night's Heat taping, he accompanied Brian Kendrick to the ring for a singles match with Lance Cade. The 2/4 Raw happened to take place in London's hometown of Austin, Texas, and he didn't know that he was going to be working the show until he arrived to the building.

Regarding the severity of Rory McAllister's pec tear injury, it will keep him sidelined for about six months. Rory, the bald Highlander, wasn't aware of the injury until he hurt his chest in a match. WWE had him see a doctor to check it out. After an MRI, the doctor informed him that he had torn his right pectoral completely off the bone. Rory underwent surgery on 2/10. With Rory out of action for six months, that puts his tag partner Robbie McAllister in a quandary to say the least as he rarely wrestles in singles matches, let alone coming out victorious in them. Robbie lost to "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan in a dark match last night.

[ChoKo]

I was told that Rey Mysterio will undergo surgery for his torn right biceps on Friday. WWE is going with the storyline that he will undergo the surgery on Saturday; however, they are probably doing so because he is wrestling on SmackDown and they want it to appear more realistic. Mysterio is expected to be out anywhere from four to six months depending on the severity of the injury.

I hope Rey gets well soon!! He just got back from an injury so that sucks!!

The following is from WWE.com:


SmackDown Superstar Rey Mysterio underwent successful surgery to repair his torn right bicep in his hometown of San Diego. The hour-long surgery was performed by Dr. David Chao of the Oasis Sports Medical Group, and Dr. Chao told WWE.com, “Mysterio is recovering well after the procedure.”

Chao also said that the tear was one of the most significant he has seen, because it was a complete rupture of the tendon. Dr. Chao added, “We brought the tendon back down to the elbow bone where it was needed, and then used suture anchors to keep it in place.”

Mysterio injured the right arm while in action overseas in Chile. Despite the injury, the Master of the 619 continued to compete, including challenging World Heavyweight Champion Edge for the gold at No Way Out �" competition that Dr. Chao says did not help Rey’s well-being.

“Rey made it [the tear] worse by trying to compete with this injury on more than one occasion, but we are confident the surgery has repaired all damage.”

As far as a timetable for Rey Mysterio’s return to action, Dr. Chao estimates, “this type of injury normally requires a recovery period of six to nine months.” However, Chao was quick to point out, “but Rey has shown his body recovers quickly from injury.”

According to a July 2005 article in the San Diego Union-Tribune, David Chao, the doctor who performed biceps surgery on Rey Mysterio yesterday, has been sued 18 times in San Diego Superior Court, including four times by San Diego Chargers football players, for medical malpractice, negligence, or fraud. Five of the suits have been settled with undisclosed payouts to the plaintiffs, and eight others were dropped for various reasons. Former NFL quarterback Ryan Leaf is among the former players who claims his career was cut short because of malpractice by Chau’s company Oasis Sports Medical Group. However, Leaf later dropped his claim against Chao and his former business partner because he didn’t feel like pursuing it. You can read the article at SignOnSandiego.com.

At Friday night's WWE house show in Cape Girardeau, MO Chris Jericho seemed to get injured. Jericho went for the Lionsault but Mr. Kennedy was too far away and Y2J landed awkwardly on his head. The referee tossed up the X sign with his hands a few times but Jericho was able to get back up and lock on a very poor Walls of Jericho for the win. Following the match several trainers came out and helped him to the back. Jericho did compete at last night's event in Louisville, KY so he seems to be fine. Those in attendance in MO though, said it was a very scary situation and it seems as if Y2J is very lucky he wasn't majorly injured.

LAFAYETTE, La. �" WWE Diva Candice Michelle injured her left shoulder tonight during her tag team match with Maria against Jillian and Victoria on Raw Monday, WWE.com has learned. Candice has been sent to a Lafayette medical center for X-rays.

“Candice has pain in her left clavicle area,” said WWE Athletic Trainer Chris Brannon.

Her shoulder is iced down and is immobilized. She was sent in for X-rays to rule out a fracture.”

Last October, Michelle broke her left clavicle during her match against WWE Women’s Champion Beth Phoenix, forcing her to miss five months of action. This was Candice’s first live-action since that injury.

Candice and March 2008 Playboy cover girl Maria are scheduled to face The Glamazon and Melina at WrestleMania XXIV in Orlando, Fla., in a BunnyMania Lumberjack Match on March 30. Check back with WWE.com for further updates as they become available.

[ChoKo]

The latest on Candice Michelle is that she will see a doctor later in the week to determine how bad she re-aggravated her broken clavicle injury that she originally suffered back in October. All indications are that Candice will work through the pain if she is medically cleared to wrestle as she does not want to miss out on the WrestleMania bonus pay.

I hate to say but he should seriously consider retirement

[Nick Michalak]

I would have to agree. If he is encountering so many injuries and medical problems on a regular basis, it is time to bow out with grace. Not sure if he'll make it to WrestleMania, but if so, it should be his final match.

-NJM

[The Dark Vampire]

Yeah he has spend a lot of time injured while it's no secret he's my all time favourite truth is over the last 2-3 years he has spend most of his time either injured or recuperating.

The guy has been in WWE for 18 years now and has never been less than a main event guy hell often his match over shadows the title match probably only 2-3 people have spend that much time on top.

At least he should consider not doing the Tombstone Piledriver as much. It's not doing his knee any favors.

The Undertaker's days are numbered, and it's sad to say. I wouldn't doubt that Wrestlemania will be his last in-ring preformance. Maybe he'll rest up for a year or so and do a few appearances but beyond that, it's a wrap.

Another thing I hate to say is that I feel the best way to end the story/legacy of The Undertaker would be a loss at Wrestlemania. If you're going to retire the Deadman for good, it should really look like someone killed him.

[Nick Michalak]

If anyone should get a win over the Undertaker at WrestleMania, Kane would be most fitting. He could use the push, too. Maybe not have it as a heated rivalry, but more of a respected bow out like HBK / Flair.

Kane was offered it and Undertaker was willing but Kane refused he didn't want to be the one.

To be honest Kane's to late now he's close to retirement himself now if Undertaker ever gets beat it should be by a up and comer who just needs that one last thing to put them on top (Edge 2 years ago would of been perfect)

They also have to make sure that the one isn't going to leave 6 months later (Brock Lenser) and waste it

Whoever does it could brag about it for years like Jericho does beating rock and Austin in one night to become 1st ever Undisputed Champ

However I personally would like to see him retire with the win intact

[Nick Michalak]

Still, WWE really cheapens it when they have the Undertaker fired, buried alive, burned, beaten, and taken out of action every 4-6 months. Obviously, it's to cover up injuries, but when it eventually comes down to him retiring, they're gonna have a tough time coming up with a believable storyline.

-NJM

[The Dark Vampire]

True he is my all time favourite but I know his time is up really I agree I don't see how they can believably have him took out for ever

[Violent VictiM]

If that's the case, the only man who should truly put the Undertaker out of business is Randy Orton.

[The Dark Vampire]

If that's the case, the only man who should truly put the Undertaker out of business is Randy Orton.

I see where your coming from Legend Killer and all that but IMO he just doesn't need that win he's already at that level the main event beating Undertaker at WM wouldn't really help him any more 2 years ago yes but he did it without

[Violent VictiM]

That's true as well, but do you really want 'Taker to be taken out by some mid-carder who needs a push for the future? That's like Ric Flair being retired by Santino, or The Brian Kendrick. He was retired by Shawn Michaels because that's just the way it should go down.

That being said, I would have to say Randy Orton still. But since it's known that Orton isn't well respected/liked in the locker room, I doubt 'Taker wants his career ended by him.

Kane will get the nod, and if he doesn't take it, he'll be forced to take it.

[The Dark Vampire]

Maybe but as I said I don't think Kane has many years left (he's 41) and TBH Undertaker won't retire easy I could even see Kane going before him

It should be someone who needs it not the names you mentioned I agree Chrisitan may return soon (his TNA contact is up next year in March I think) I would pick him he's a main eventer as proven in TNA but in WWE he just needs a bit more I think a UT win could do it

There is nobody in WWE at the moment who is just at the right level as it not to low but just not high enough as I said Orton or Edge from about 2 years ago level.

I did read that Ted DiBiase Jr is been considered as the one if they can build him up enough (that would need about 2 years of work IMO)

[Violent VictiM]

Mark needs to something soon because he's just getting old. His in ring preformance is being effected by it. Granted I don't really watch wrestling too much when Football is on, but I haven't seen him take to the air in a while.

Kane may be 41 but he'll be going until 50 easy given he stays healthy. He hasn't nearly reached the level that he needs to so I can see him staying for a few more years.

[The Dark Vampire]

From what I understand Kane isn't as fit as he used to be either he has injuries to I could live with Kane doing it but he's had 2 chances already.

Thinking about it Ted DiBiase Jr could be cool to take Undertaker out as an idea as his Dad was the guy who brought him in "kayfabe"

As an idea only (as he's not good enough) Deuce would be good as he's Jimmy Snuka Jr and his dad was Undertaker's 1st WM win

[Violent VictiM]

I really would hate to see Ted DiBiase Jr. do it, or any Jr. for that matter (even though I said that Randy Orton would be a good candidate, that's just for the entertainment value in my mind). The Duece thing would be cool considering who he is and what happened between his father and 'Taker but still not worthy enough to me.

I stick by either Orton/Kane.

[HiCkMaN!]

The Undertaker's days are numbered, and it's sad to say. I wouldn't doubt that Wrestlemania will be his last in-ring preformance. Maybe he'll rest up for a year or so and do a few appearances but beyond that, it's a wrap.

Another thing I hate to say is that I feel the best way to end the story/legacy of The Undertaker would be a loss at Wrestlemania. If you're going to retire the Deadman for good, it should really look like someone killed him.

i agree 100%

[Seth]

Matt Hardy's working on a severely screwed-up knee right now. That's the reason why his match with Regal on the last Raw went to a double countout. Hardy actually wrestled 3 times on that taping including a dark match. I can only assume he'll be on the PPV tonight, but his level of activity remains to be seen.

[The Dark Vampire]

According to several fans in attendance at tonight's SmackDown brand house show in Raleigh, North Carolina, reigning WWE Divas Champion Maryse suffered a traumatic injury during her match.

Maryse and Natalya were wrestling The Bella Twins in the third match on the show. As Maryse worked one of the twins over in the corner, she suddenly crumpled down to the mat. She appeared to have blown out her knee.

What followed was an awkward scene in which Natalya stood on the apron not knowing what to do while The Bella Twins went around the ring playing up to the crowd. Special guest referee Kung Fu Naki stood over Maryse talking to her. The road agent for the match threw up the "X signal" and a number EMTs, referees and road agents hit the ringside area. Meanwhile, Natalya entered the ring and made one of the twins submit to the sharpshooter to put an end to the match. Maryse was then carted off on a stretcher.

This is a horrible break for Maryse as she beat Michelle McCool just last week to become the new WWE Divas Champion. It goes without saying that she'll be forced to relinquish her newly won title and take several months off due to the injury as well.

3. Natalya and Maryse defeated the Bella Twins with Kung Fu Naki as the guest referee in about eight minutes. The news here is that Maryse appeared to injure her knee badly.

The crowd was entirely dead for this. Nothing they did garnered reaction.
After a few minutes, a Bella twin tried to dropkick Maryse. I’m thinking her intent was to either miss entirely or possibly contact her thigh, but she instead landed square on the kneecap. It looked like a freak occurrence. Maryse shrieked loudly and collapsed to the mat. She laid there for a minute before a WWE official came around to check on her. He gave the X symbol and several trainers ran out. She stayed in the same position for the rest of the match.

The other three were scrambling around and trying to improvise the match during all of this. It was a huge mess and looked terrible. Natalya looked to end the match by taking a three count at one point, but Funaki just stopped his count before three for no reason even though she didn’t budge. She eventually used the Sharpshooter on one of the twins for the end.

Maryse probably laid there for at least another five minutes while the trainers looked at her. They eventually brought out a stretcher and carted her out instead of trying to have her walk.

Whilst I would never want to see anybody injured and I do hope she will be ok but it just shows what happens when you put useless eye candy in matches Maryse pretty much sucks and one of the Bella's botched a drop kick

Umaga has suffered an injury to his leg during the last SD! tapings. It is still not confirmed of what exactly the injury is and how long Umaga will miss from the ring.

- Candice Michelle is not expected back in the ring
for another two/three weeks. There were originally plans to use her at house shows in non-wrestling roles. She was actually in Las Vegas this week shooting a new GoDaddy commercial with Vanessa Rousso and Danica Patrick. The ads will air during the upcoming NBC National Heads-Up
Poker Championship, and the 2009 NFL season.


- Evan Bourne was medically cleared on 3/2. His return is imminent.

- Kennedy is cleared too but isn't expected back on TV until after Wrestlemania.


- Batista, as noted here is ahead of schedule with rehab, but isn't expected to be in the ring until May.

Seriously she should just quite despite the fact she sucks in the ring (On her very very best day she can only be called kinda Ok) the fact is she has spent about 90% of her time injured

Also she is 30 which for someone who is purely eye candy that is getting kinda old (before anyone says I'm knocking 30 year olds I'm 30 myself this week) plus she is married and just may want to have kids and if she does it's best to have them before she gets much older

[Darth Reaper]

As far as The Undertaker goes I'd rather see him retire with his streak intact. If it's so difficult to have him defeated perminantly then don't. Let him return to the darkness from whence he came on his own terms.

I would however like to see Kane finally get one over on Taker before either of them retires. I don't think it's ever happened before, and I think it may have hurt Kane a bit.

[Nancy Thompson]

-- Edge is currently battling several nagging injuries, reports ProWrestling.net. He’s had problems with knee issues in the past and they may have flared up again. The severity of his current ailments are unknown. Edge has been working some house shows recently so whatever injuries he is battling aren’t bad enough to keep him on the road. That being said, he’s only been working tag matches at those house shows in order to keep his work load in the ring light.

[pa®tci]

Yesterday was reported, that while performing a 691 on a house show this weekend, Rey Misterio has injured his leg and was carried off the ring on a stretcher. It turned out the injury is not that serious, so he will not miss any ring time.

Rey Misterio or Botch Misterio? His doing a lot of them nowadays, guess the pain in his knees is calling again.

[SoulOnFire]

How long was Batista back for before getting injured again? Same with Kennedy and Rey Rey. I know steroids weaken muscle and bone, so maybe that explains it.

Also, how the Hell does someone get hit in the knee on a dropkick?? Unless she was going for a low dropkick. Keep in mind, these divas really shouldn't be wrestling in the first place for the most part. They're pretty inexperienced.

[andrew8798]

Batista was healthy for a about one year and a update on Rey from today's F4W news Update

Update from WWE is that Rey Mysterio was not hurt seriously last night in Lubbock.

[pa®tci]

Consequences Creed has suffered a concussion (it's said it probably happened after (а "suplex") the Tower of Doom). Not sure how much serious it is, but he has been pulled out from the iMPACT!'s tapes this week. He doesn't remember much of the match itself.

Even though I totally hate his gimmick, I wish him full and quick recover. Concussions are no joke (ask Bret Hart).

I don't like him anyway, so if he can hook Batista's hand and walk away from busyness with him, will be some good news for me as well.

To be fair, a lot of the wrestlers are probably injured. Some worse than others. You cannot take this kind of abuse and not have something break. Some can work through it, others cannot.

[The Dark Vampire]

To be fair, a lot of the wrestlers are probably injured. Some worse than others. You cannot take this kind of abuse and not have something break. Some can work through it, others cannot.

True but then they are ones like Candice who get injured most of the time due to the fact they just are no good she can not perform a move or take a bump safely in truth over the last few years she has been injured 90% of the time and when she returns she barely has a few matches before she's injured again

Only injury I wouldn't say is because she sucks was when Beth knocked her off the top rope I don't thik some of the best in the world would of been able to fall safe

[The Dark Vampire]

Matt Hardy broke his hand during the spot Jeff crashed him through a table. He will be out of the ring for four to six weeks.

Dave Meltzer is reporting that The Undertaker missed last week's Smackdown/Superstars tapings at Madison Square Garden because his knees are bothering him, as well as his hip. The word going around is that The Undertaker would be undergoing minor surgery on his knee, but there is a fear that when he undergoes the procedure, more damage could be found. This explains the push of John Morrison as a babyface, and might force WWE to turn up pressure on Jeff Hardy to re-sign. Shawn Michaels, Undertaker's Wrestlemania opponent, was given time off to rest up.

More Undertaker injuries well his main one playing up again I honestily don't think he has many years left

I reckon that next years Mania could be Undertakers retirement match. Heres hoping that he can last until then.

[Special Killa B]

Mr Kennedy always gets hit by an injury or something bad when he's on a decent run, I hope he does get fit and climbs back in the ring

Kennedy should just retire, he's injured more then wrestling. He's been out so long that I completely forgot that he was even a WWE wrestler. When did he wrestle last? Four years ago when he lost the MITB briefcase to Edge? :p:D (That's sarcasim, I know he had a match or two since then)

[The Dark Vampire]

Mr. Kennedy was injured last night on Raw during the Lakers vs. Nuggets ten man tag team match main event. Kennedy injured his wrist when he took the RKO from WWE champion Randy Orton. At this point, the injury is not believed to be serious, and the company is hopeful he won't miss any ring time.
Credit>Gerweck.Net

I think Kennedy should think about hanging up the boots he can't ven have 1 match without getting hurt and TBH he is a good in ring wrestler he just seems to have really bad luck.

But with his mic skills I do think he could be a good manager or other on screen role maybe even a GM

PWInsider.com is reporting that the new WWE champion Batista is scheduled for surgery on Tuesday morning for a torn bicep, which he sustained prior to his match with Randy Orton at 'Extreme Rules' and was a likely factor for the match being so fast.


Batista just came back from a hamstring injury at the beginning of April and it is no secret that he was rushed back to TV and asked to work a full schedule with house shows.


One would expect an angle to be shot Monday night on 'Raw' and lead to Batista dropping the title.

Why the hell give him the title if they knew he was injured I think that is a pretty stupid move

Plus injured again hell if getting injured all the time was the reason to give Kennedy his walking papers what about Crapzilla he's hurt just as much

Maybe they should book a match Kennedy vs Batista the winner is the one to get injured last (the match would last about 10 minutes and end in a tie)
ADDED:
- The reports last night on PWInsider.com that Batista tore his biceps muscle are inaccurate. He actually has a small tendon tear that will be further assessed by a specialist on Tuesday. (credit: The Wrestling Globe Newsletter)

If that's the case I can see them keeping the title on him at least until next week or they can give him a beat down tonight then if it's not so bad have him return and if it is say they have put him put of action and he is striped of the title
ADDED:
Batista has suffered a completely torn left bicep requiring surgery that will keep him out of action for at least four months.

WWE star Edge could be sidelined for several months after suffering what was described as a serious Achilles injury on Friday.

He was carted from the ring just a few minutes into a match with Jeff Hardy at the Smackdown house show in San Diego, CA.

As trainers and medics took Edge to the backstage area for an awaiting ambulance he grabbed the house microphone and told the crowd he was "sorry."

The 35-year-old WWE unified tag champion has suffered a torrent of injuries over the years including a broken neck in 2003 and a torn pectoral muscle in 2005.

Damn it Edge is one of the top gys at the moment and a tag title run with Jericho would of been great

I do hear they may drop the belts to Legacy (it would be easy this week Ted sr is guest GM so could make the match even give a stipulation what gives Legacy the advantage

[nottidelterrore]

Damnit. It figures that he gets hurt now. He & Jericho are two of my favorite guys in WWE. Seeing both of them as tag team champs is quite an amazing site.

I wish Edge a speedy recovery.

[The Dark Vampire]

From what I've read he will be out until at least The Royal Rumble

[Denzil]

Gutted. Hope he comes back and stays healthy!

Might not like Edge but i do agree he is a good wrestler and i hope he gets well soon. Also hearing when he comes back they might make him a face that be good to see

Might not like Edge but i do agree he is a good wrestler and i hope he gets well soon. Also hearing when he comes back they might make him a face that be good to see

His SD interview was very face like especially as Jericho heeled it up and cut a promo on Edge.

But I did hear even before the injury there was plans to turn Edge face

[Just Jeans]

Would this have been the first time Edge played a face in the last five or six years?

[nottidelterrore]

Would this have been the first time Edge played a face in the last five or six years?

Yep. The last time I remember him being a face was in the summer-fall of 2004 where he was a tag champ with Benoit. Later in the fall is when he began his heel turn, I believe.

Heel or face, I'm a huge Edge fan. He's definitely going to come back as a face. He sounded pretty over with the fans last night. Edge & Jericho should give us a pretty good program since both are talented & good talkers.

[Darth Sinister]

Fans did give him a pop when he won the tag belts. That's most likely why the face turn was coming before the injury. And Edge was face for a long time before turning heel, so it was long overdue then and now.

[Just Jeans]

I think Adam Copeland is cool as hell, but I absolutely cannot stand it when he plays Edge as a heel. He comes on waaaay too strong. That's why I wasn't particularly upset when he was moved from RAW to Smackdown back in 2007. After he's healed, I wonder if they'll go through with the face turn?

[nottidelterrore]

I think he'll turn face. I like him as a heel but he's due for a face turn. Plus, I think he's done all that he can do as a main event heel. I think Jericho is probably the best heel they have in WWE currently. I love Jericho because he can play both roles quite well. Not to mention he's a great wrestler & great on the mic. I love his heel promos over the past year.

Former WWE Divas champion Maryse is currently in Birmingham, AL, to get her knee checked by the always busy Dr. James Andrews. Her knee problem wasn't due to an injury she suffered lately but rather a combination of issues that have been going for almost six months. Maryse dropped the Divas title on Sunday night to Mickie James during the Night of Champions pay-per-view

Well I would never ever wish an injury on anybody no matter how much I dislike them but I will go as far as saying I certainly won't miss having to watch her terrible attempts to wrestle

We can confirm that Maryse underwent knee surgery on Tuesday under Dr. Jeffrey Dugas at the Alabama Sports Medicine and Orthopaedic Center in Birmingham, AL. We understand her left knee was scoped to remove floating cartilage. She is expected to be out for several weeks.

Thought it would be a few months at least.

I should say whilst I think Maryse sucks as a wrestler I do think she has good heel mannerisms and would make a good valet to someone like The Miz

[The Dark Vampire]

McCool injured what appeared to be her left knee. It’s unclear how the injury occured, but after a rollup attempt by Torres, McCool rolled to the outside. The referee, who seemed puzzled, began a 10-count. A second referee (Jack Doan) came to ringside to check on McCool and immediatley put up the cross arms, signifying a legit injury.

Hampton Beach fire fighters and paramedics immediatley came to ringside to attend to McCool, who stayed on the floor for several minutes.

WWE road agent Arn Anderson emerged from backstage to check on McCool as well. Eventually, McCool was assisted to her feet and was helped to the backstage area. It appeared that if the injury was to her left knee, however the severity is not known at this time.

The match was ruled a no-contest.
Credit> Gerweck.net and thewrestleblog.com

Again even though I dislike her I hate to see anyone injured

I bet Undertaker is pissed she won't be able to kneel in front of him for the next few months now (yes I went there)

I wonder what will happen to the title either Nattie or Melina should get it

[Darth Sinister]

In a WWE Universe blog on Jeff Hardy's WWE exit, Matt Hardy thanks his departing brother for "breaking his back for the sake of our business day in and day out." He adds that even Internet fans who dislike Jeff Hardy should appreciate how he got CM Punk over this summer, while he asks Jeff Hardy fans to thank the "Charismatic Enigma" for his unselfish entertainment.

Matt partially attributes Jeff Hardy's departure to nagging neck and back injuries ("He needs time away to heal physically and mentally"), before putting over the likelihood of Jeff making a return down the road.

So Jeff is out for now, but will probably be back once he's healed enough.

[The Dark Vampire]

Melina was injured at last night's WWE house show in Manchester, NH.

Mike McMahon wrote on his blog:

Maryese/Katie Lea/Alicia Fox def. Melina/Kelly Kelly/Gail Kim

The story of this match was an injury to WWE DIVAS CHAMPION Melina. From my vantage point, it was hard to see what happened to Melina and it's tough to even speculate on what the injury is. It appeared that the injury occurred while she was giving Katie Lea Burchill a clothesline. I will say that it didn't appear to be all that serious, but you never know with these things. She was helped to her feet by referee Jack Doan and Kelly Kelly. Then Doan and Kelly helped her to the back where she went through an exit on the opposite side of the wrestlers'. As the doctor was examining Melina in the ring, paramedics brought a stretch to ringside, but it was never used, again pointing to the injury being not of a serious manner. Regardless, it was a scary moment for the crowd and certainly for Melina. She wasn't visibly limping when brought to her feet, but clearly seemed to shaken up and walking gingerly, with help. Kim and Kelly were clearly concerned, and stayed in the ring and left with Melina.

The Wrestling Observer is reporting that Melina's injury from the Tuesday night WWE house show in Manchester, NH, was a torn ACL.

John Cena was involved in a cage match with Wade Barrett at the live Raw show. Barrett hit his finisher on Cena and he looked to have landed awkwardly on his leg or his knee. Trainers ran out immediately for a few minutes. Wade walked around to give Cena some time and walked close and Cena put a submission on him. Barrett tapped out instantly to stop the match. John Cena then cut a promo after saying he might have to take time off. He clearly could not put any weight on his leg.

After what happened on Raw this could be a good or bad thing for Punk and the new Punk lead Nexus.

It would be bad in the sense that Punk had a big storyline coming but now that has to be put on hold on the other hand Punk can now say Nexus with him on their 1st night did what Barrett never could do in 6-7 months and that is put Cena out of action.

Plus this is Cena he heals faster than Superman he's come back from both a broken neck and a torn pec in 3 months so if that;s the case he'll be back by WM then have his match with Punk which was the plan anyway

WWE broke the news on Twitter on Tuesday night that Randy Orton was injured at the SmackDown tapings from Indianapolis, Indiana.

We are hearing conflicting reports as to whether the injury took place during Orton’s Falls Count Anywhere match on SmackDown with Wade Barrett, or if it was a previous injury. The match ended when Barrett threw Orton down a flight of stairs, a sign that Orton had pre-existing injury and the angle was used as a way to write Orton off television. Several readers have noted that Orton has not wrestled much in previous weeks, another sign that it’s been a nagging injury.

As noted before, Sheamus will be taking Orton’s place in SmackDown live events this week against Barrett. There’s talk that one of the RAW brand live event matches will be moved over to the SmackDown tour to add more talent in Randy Orton’s absence.

Orton will be undergoing medical tests this week to assess the extent of the situation.
Rumors are he'll be out up to six months.

[The Dark Vampire]

The word going around at the Impact Wrestling tapings is that all the news on Jesse Sorensen's recovery is positive. While he is still in serious condition, doctors are happy with Sorensen continuing to regain feeling and movement in his extremities. The hope is that he will eventually make a full recovery.


Spike TV president Kevin Kay was at the TNA Impact Wrestling taping on Monday. He threw a party for talent and staff after the show.

Injured TNA wrestler Jesse Sorensen showed significant improvement on Monday after fracturing his C1 vertebrae at Sunday's Against All Odds pay-per-view. He is said to be getting the feeling back in his legs slowly but surely, and doctors now expect a full recovery.

Dixie Carter flew Sorensen's mother to Florida to be with him. Spirits are said to be high. Obviously, the expectation of a full recovery is the best possible news that we could have hoped for.
