With staples in WWE as big as Triple H, The Undertaker, Bobby Lashley and Mr.Kennedy suffering from lingering and major injuries it makes you wonder just what is going to happen in the World Wrestling Entertainment story line. With the loss of Triple H this past January, we all watched the recently united Degeneration X slowly fizzle out, into extinction. Recently, a large number of main event-ers have sustained major injuries themselves.

It has previously been reported that Mr.Kennedy former Wrestlemania 23, "Money In The Bank" winner sustained a major tear to his tricept which would lead to iminent surgery. It has recently been reported by several online wrestling sites that Mr.Kennedy will only be out six to eight weeks. Even though his injury is not as bad as it may have been conceived to be, he did loose his Money In The Bank Contract to Edge this past Monday night on Raw. Edge then capitalized on the Undertaker's injury and cashed in his Money In The Bank contract to become the new Smackdown Heavy Weight Champion.

The Undertaker's short lived Heavy Weight Championship reign came to an end this past Tuesday at the Smackdown taping. Edge capitalizing not just on Mr.Kennedy but also Taker's injury claiming The Deadman's title belt for his own. It's been reported that The Undertaker suffered a significant bicep tear at the Backlash pay per view. The timing of this injury couldn't be any worse as The Undertaker recently defeated former Heavy Weight Champion Batista at Wrestelmania 23 just over a month ago. If The Undertaker is to have surgery on his bicep he could possibly be out for the next six to eight months.

Right... no offense but read the date that the article was published. No doubt they are "juiced up" like you say however, this is in reference to REAL injuries not story line suspensions. Dr.James Andrews is a real physician and the surgeries that can be seen on wwe.com are indeed real. Wrestling is entertainment but in no way is wrestling fake, just ask Matt Hardee (if you didn't catch Friday night Smackdown on 10/26/07 which was taped 10/23/07). Some injuries may be story line, but the ones I wrote about are real.

These "injuries" are fake and planned.They are used to give the wrestler time to get off the steroids they're on. Triple H, Edge, Snitsky, Bobby Lashley, Mr. Kennedy, and now John Cena, The champ, ..how ironic. Look at the before and afters, all these juiced up "athletes" come back much leaner, "smaller", and they can blame it on their injury. With Congress looking in to WWE like baseball, its the WWe's way of getting their "juiced up" stars out of the spotlight. Batista is next..watch.

This article was actually written May 10th, so if it seems a tad out-dated I appologize. :(
