New thread 'cos I sick of living in the past.


From WWE.com:

Raw Superstar Jason Jordan underwent successful surgery this morning to repair a neck injury, WWE.com can confirm.

“He had an injury to a disc in his neck which resulted in significant pain that was refractory to all conservative measures,” WWE Medical Director Dr. Joseph Maroon said. “It was decided to do a minimally invasive operation to decompress the nerve, to allow it to heal.”

The procedure Jordan underwent is called a minimally invasive posterior cervical microdiscectomy. It is not known just how long Jordan will be out of action.

So they try to make him look bad because he can't go and then he has IRL surgery....how they booked that makes no sense.

All the best in Jordan's recovery. I liked what they were doing with him lately. He got off to a terrible start once he was named Angle's father but I'm glad they were starting to change his character.

There wasn’t much that made sense last night.

I feel so bad for Jordan. He's so young and was really coming into his character over the last few months (I think the turning point was the Survivor Series build).

On another note, I wonder what that means for Seth's Wrestlemania opponent. That's now two guys he was slated to work that have gone down with injuries and may not be available (Ambrose, Jordan).

Damn that would be quite the storyline.

It would be.

Seth vs ............ C..e..n..a? I guess.. Idk theres no one for Seth at this point.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Guess you could stick Seth with Joe if he is back in time.

Just turn then IC Title Match into a multi-man match.

Seth v Braun v Balor v Miz(c)

 

[M.C.G. 31]

I'm still holding out hope for Dean to return, even if it's being in a protected tag team spot for Wrestlemania with Seth.

Although the downside is the duo being locked in with Cesaro and Sheamus again, which is just ridiculous at this point even if the matches are great.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Finn should be feuding with Cena. Not lost in a multi person IC match.

 

[GKJ]

The easiest thing to do would be Seth vs. Angle

Booker T said on his podcast that Corey Graves is the reason he's not on Monday Night Raw commentary...

Rollins is one of their top guys, they have to give him something at Wrestlemania, maybe put him in the IC title match as was mentioned?

Is he? His promos are bland and his matches aren't anything special. I'd put him behind, Brock, Roman, Cena, Finn, Joe, Braun, Bray, Dean and on SD, AJ, Roode, KO, Sami, Shinsuke. He's kind of fell off a cliff since his world title run in terms of appeal. He can add all the fire he wants to his entrance, it's not going to help.

 

[Sheppy]

Rollins > Ambrose. Ambrose has been a dud for a while now.

I think Cena is putting over Elias at WrestleMania

That would only make me respect Graves more.

Supposedly the management was afraid he'd jump on Graves because Graves was constntly giving him jabs.

Rollins is literally a better worker than everybody on that list outside of AJ.

It's also confusing af that you mention he'd bland and has nothing matches while putting him behind Dean who has sucked for 9 years now.

Dean isn't bland and his title run on SD was good. Being a good worker doesn't make you a top guy in the company.

Sounds like Book in his older age can dish it out but can't take it anymore.

 

[Huggy43]

So it wasn't Grave's fault but his inability to control his anger? Bye bye Booker!

Sooo....Shelton Benjamin found a loaded gun in the glove box of his rental car.
