The injuries continue…


June 03, 2008


The Big Show, who initially was thought to merely suffer a cut at “One Night Stand,“ has now been diagnosed with a fractured sinus cavity and orbital bone.

There are pictures up at http://www.wwe.com showing Big Show’s eye Monday morning. It’s pretty rough to look at, as it’s swollen beyond belief. Show is pretty much my favorite big-man worker in the business, sans the Undertaker, and is a better wrestler than any legit seven-footer I’ve ever seen.

R-K-No!


June 02, 2008


Former WWE and World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton suffered a broken collarbone during last night’s Last Man Standing match against WWE Champion Triple H at “One Night Stand.“

I was watching the show, and the injury was obvious as soon as it happened. Orton went for an RKO, which Triple H countered by tossing Orton over the top. What went wrong, it seems, is that there were overturned steps outside the ring where Trips tossed Orton. Seeing the steps, Orton seemed to adjust a bit, getting his right foot caught on the top rope. Because of this, he fell straight to the floor, landing on his shoulder. Trips rolled outside, at which point he recognized the injury and abruptly rushed the finish of the match.

The crowd gave Orton a standing ovation after he finally got to his feet, but in classic heel fashion, he cursed the crowd before going backstage for what could be the last time for a long while. No word on how long he’ll be out, but I would think it’s somewhere in the four-to-six-month range.

Aw hell, King Regal


May 22, 2008


World Wrestling Entertainment announced Tuesday that 2008 King of the Ring winner William Regal is serving a 60-day suspension for violating the company’s substance abuse policy.

This couldn’t have come at a worse time for Regal, as he was enjoying the most significant on-screen role of his career, and this all but guarantees he’ll never get another sustained push. This explains the seemingly odd choice of removing him from Raw after a match with Kennedy this week.

As a fan of the performer, I just hope he hasn’t fallen back on the addictions that nearly cost him so much 10 years ago.

Hardy says MVP screwed him, MVP says Hardy is jealous. Hardy says he is certain that he will win on Sunday, MVP hits him with the US Title belt and leaves.

Edge b. CM Punk
This was described to me as a very good match. Lots of nears falls throughout, our correspondent says Punk ends up hitting Go to Sleep but Edge falls to the outside. Punk goes to get him and Zack Ryder gets involved. Edge ends up hitting the spear for the win.

Vladimir Kozlov b ????

Video of Batista thanking Vickie Guerrero for his match tonight against The Undertaker.

Batista comes out for his match against The Undertaker.

The Undertaker b. Batista
They give this some time. Undertaker dominates early and the action eventually spills to the outside. On the outside, Undertaker throws Batista into the ring stairs. Undertaker gives a leg drop to Batista off the apron. Both try finishers but miss. Undertaker ends up hitting a chokeslam for a two count. Batista a spear for a two count. Undertaker puts the steps in the ring. Undertaker goes for the Tombstone but Batista counters with a spear. Batista goes for the Batista Bomb but Shawn Michaels comes out. He gives him a superkick. Undertaker ends up getting the win.


Overall, sounds like a pretty good show. Batista-Taker is being hyped pretty heavily by most of the reports I’ve read, so it should be another in a long line of great matches between the two. Edge-Punk was good the first time (several months back), so hopefully this one lives up to the hype.
