Guest Incandenza Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 EDIT: Argh. I got this from PWBTS and put up a link, but it's been giving me pop-ups out the ass, so here's the article, lest anyone run into the same problem: Bradshaw on Tuesday had surgery to repair a torn biceps muscle in his left arm. The big Texan will require four to six months of rehabilitation and recovery time before he can return to the ring. The injury occurred during the first segment of RAW, when he and Kane teamed to take on Christian and Lance Storm. But Bradshaw finished his match and completed his duties on RAW -- he even ran in during the Booker T & Goldust vs. William Regal & Test match -- in spite of the pain. On Tuesday morning, Bradshaw and World Wrestling Entertainment trainer Chris Brennan flew to Birmingham, Ala., to see Dr. James Andrews. The surgeon examined the big Texan and diagnosed a tear; a subsequent MRI confirmed the tear, and Bradshaw went under the knife on Tuesday afternoon. Andrews reportedly deemed the surgery a complete success. The injury is apparently very similar to the one suffered by Kane last May. Wearing a hard cast from his shoulder to his elbow, Bradshaw flew home on Wednesday. WWE.com hopes to speak with Bradshaw later this week
Guest oldschoolwrestling Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Poor Hoss, Now we definately need The Wall to come back.
Guest Kinetic Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 I don't usually use these things, but this is a special occasion:
Guest creativename Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Cue anti-smark rant: "You people make me sick!!! Why how in the hell can you possibly take joy in the misfortunes of another human being! This man is injured bah gawd! And you internet smarks sneering at this unfortunate situation! How dare you, I am so much cooler than you because I am anti-you! blah blah blah blah...."
Guest PuzzyBludPopzicle Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Strange thing happened when I read that. The sun started shining brighter, my cat came and nuzzled up against my leg purring, and my toothache went away for a moment. Coincidence?
Guest Incandenza Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 I'm glad Bradshaw's gone, but I don't find this funny. It lacks the subtle social commentary of Kevin Nash's quad tear.
Guest PuzzyBludPopzicle Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 or it could be leading to an epidemic of hosses tearing up their arms trying to carry the company back to greatness
Guest D'Lo White Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Raw is missing a great face hoss now, Mark Henry must defect NOW!
Guest Kinetic Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 No injury will ever be quite as humorous as Kevin Nash's quad tear. In addition to the aforementioned social commentary, it also had the added benefit of Big Lazy going down five seconds after tagging in for no apparent reason. His screaming added a lot, as well. Not to mention HBK doing a promo after the match saying that if Triple H didn't join the nWo, he'd be "face down like all the rest" as fellow nWo member Kevin Nash laid in the corner of the ring, screaming like a girl. It was just perfect on every level. Nothing could even hope to top it.
Guest Olympic Slam Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Raw is missing a great face hoss now, Mark Henry must defect NOW! <Cole> What a coup that would be!
Guest D'Lo White Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Raw is missing a great face hoss now, Mark Henry must defect NOW! <Cole> What a coup that would be! All kidding aside, they probaly will do this so Henry could take Bradshaw's spot in feuding with the Un-Americans.
Guest RavishingRickRudo Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 That's what he gets for rippin off the lariat, the bullhorns, the cowboy hat, and the bullrope. The Ghost of Stan Hansen lives on - righting all the wrongs in professional wrestling.
Guest BoboBrazil Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 The hosses that Jim Ross loves so much sure do get injured alot...
Guest Masked Heel Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Get well soon but he won't be missed please don't put Henry in his place put him in OVW again or something
Guest BionicRedneck Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Well, thats bad for him. Sounds painful. I'm genuinely sorry for the guy. However, I don't, nor did I ever, enjoy any of his work, so its no loss at all to me entertainment wise.
Guest Rob Edwards Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 A good injection of Hoss roids should see him back in no time. Hey we could have that dream Crutch vs Sling match now Nash v Bradshaw who wants tickets?
EL DANDY~! Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 That's what he gets for rippin off the lariat, the bullhorns, the cowboy hat, and the bullrope. The Ghost of Stan Hansen lives on - righting all the wrongs in professional wrestling. That's what he gets for rippin off the lariat, the bullhorns, the cowboy hat, and the bullrope. The Ghost of Stan Hansen lives on - righting all the wrongs in professional wrestling. Wait a minute...Hansen really didn't suck...HA HA HA! Oh I slay me... But seriously, this DOES mean that THE WALL will be coming in...shit..
Guest deadbeater Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Bradshaw is not as bad as Test. Justin was once part of the APA, which had some of the best skits in the WWE programs. I know, I know, his current Midnight Cowboy gimmick is not a good one. I do hope he recovers fully, with an improved gimmick. Kevin Nash tearing his quad was so funny in so many levels. I mean, Gerwitz can't write anything funny, but he sets up things so that wacky uninentionally funny things happen.
Guest Kinetic Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 The hosses that Jim Ross loves so much sure do get injured alot... Probably due to poor training on their part. This ain't ballet, you know.
Guest The Mighty Damaramu Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 The ghost of Stan Hansen? I must be lost....when did he die?
Guest Strike Force! Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Cue anti-smark rant: "You people make me sick!!! Why how in the hell can you possibly take joy in the misfortunes of another human being! This man is injured bah gawd! And you internet smarks sneering at this unfortunate situation! How dare you, I am so much cooler than you because I am anti-you! blah blah blah blah...." Lord help us all if Benoit gets hurt. I don't know if I could do without his restholds with psychology.
Guest BionicRedneck Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Stan Hansen is still alive.
Guest DJ Jeff Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Well, so much for Kane and Bradshaw fueding with the Un-Americans. I wonder who will replace Bradshaw now?
Guest Angle-plex Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Damn! He's only out for 4-6 months!
Guest The Tino Standard Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 The hosses that Jim Ross loves so much sure do get injured alot... Probably due to poor training on their part. This ain't ballet, you know. Damn it! You beat me to the punch! But yeah, Nash... Kane... now Bradshaw. "... and another hoss bites the dust."
Guest Spaceman Spiff Posted September 11, 2002 Report Posted September 11, 2002 Bradshaw is not as bad as Test. Hey, I'm no fan of Test, but I'd rather watch a Test match than a Bradshaw match. Well, so much for Kane and Bradshaw fueding with the Un-Americans. I wonder who will replace Bradshaw now? *whew* Hopefully, somebody who doesn't suck in every possible way.
Guest Goodear Posted September 12, 2002 Report Posted September 12, 2002 Well, thats bad for him. Sounds painful. I'm genuinely sorry for the guy. However, I don't, nor did I ever, enjoy any of his work, so its no loss at all to me entertainment wise. I'm with you. Sucking in the ring doesn't make me wish you an injury, I just won't miss you while you're gone.
EL DANDY~! Posted September 12, 2002 Report Posted September 12, 2002 The whole Stan Hansen thing is like this. When he got mega over in Japan for doing the MEGA-HUGE HEAD RIPPING LARIATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS, Vince took it upon himself to try and create somebody like that. He chose Bradshaw, which in reality is really stupid. Sure he's a Texan, but he can't do much else. Hansen could do a LOT better than Bradshaw could.
Guest bravesfan Posted September 12, 2002 Report Posted September 12, 2002 Whatzup with all the HOSSES~! tearing their biceps?!? First Nash, then Kane, then Bradshaw...
Guest LaParkaMarka Posted September 12, 2002 Report Posted September 12, 2002 Maybe they'll turn Bull Buchanan or Albert face. *cries at the thought of seeing them on tv again*
