Guest converge241 Report post Posted March 24, 2003 I mean come on the injury happened a few weeks ago I NEED TO KNOW THE PERCENTAGE!!!!!!!

Bored 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2003 They probably haven't been doing them because they haven't even acknowledged his injury on t.v. or Batista's for that matter as the Evolution storyline has been completely erased for WWE continuity. Besides even though the updates were funny I think constantly having to push a guy based on him being injured isn't exactly going to get him over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They mentioned his when he came out with crutches and interfered the last monday night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bored 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2003 They mentioned his when he came out with crutches and interfered the last monday night. I forget did they actually say he was injured when he interferred? Yes I know him having crutches would imply that. Having him there seemed pointless since he can't wrestle right now. What are they gonna do have him sit at ringside for the next 6-8 months? I guess that could be his new gimmick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest nikowwf Report post Posted March 24, 2003 This is off topic, but do you know there is a real RNN? I'm not sure what they are. Last thursday, i brought my wife to work at WORLD FINANCIAL CENTER (and there was a news crew asking questions (about the war id presume) and the mikes said RNN. God, i wanted them to ask me a question. I was ready with my RANDY ORTON answer. niko Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest evilhomer Report post Posted March 24, 2003 I might be giving them too much credit, but maybe they were just worried about it getting stale. When the RNN updates were originally introduced, they worked perfectly with how they were shoving him down our throats to enable his heel turn. It's been done now, so doing it again so quickly wouldn't be as effective. There's also the fact that he's at least half a year away from returning, so maybe they don't want to run them for that long. Remember this is the WWE, do you seriously think they can write 30-40 RNN skits and keep them entertaining? I just hope we do get some updates when he gets to around 80.456% Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think its a bit too late to run an injury angle at this point. Besides for the WWE their just more comfortable with the pretend like it never happened angles.

Guest converge241 Report post Posted March 24, 2003 well yes it is too late its more like "why didnt they?" back when it happened..nothing wrong with a babyface taking some people out instead of the heels sometime (in revenge at least) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest humongous2002 Report post Posted March 24, 2003 Well the reason they don't do those RNN skits about Orton's foot it's b/c that broken foot will never be 100% ever again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Imarkout4chrisdaniels Report post Posted March 25, 2003 They gave the injuries to Orton and Batista a slight mention during a Triple H match/segment the week after it happened. Just said they were injured and Triple H/Flair were going it alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
