The Dames Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 For a torn bicep (or is tricep?) that he received during the SD taping by the way. Dames
Guest godthedog Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 um...any details? is this after the ppv, or are they cancelling the match, or what?
Guest BoboBrazil Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Meltzer says Benoit will probably take his place, but he isn't sure.
The Dames Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Most likely, he'll be replaced in the Ladder Match. Dames
The Dames Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 I heard that same thing, but Benoit already has a match on the card. Dames
Guest RedJed Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Benoit will probably be replaced by Rikishi or something....and then he will take Chavos place in the ladder match.
Guest HollywoodSpikeJenkins Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 He does?????????? Spoiler (Highlight to Read): 6 man vs. Cena/FBI
Guest Will Scarlet Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Ouch. That sucks. Chavo was fast becoming one of my favourite's on Smackdown. I wonder what shall become of the only somewhat promising match on the PPV now.
B. Brian Brunzell Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 That's a damn shame for Chavo. He was really starting to shine in his pairing with Uncle Eddie. Get well soon, Chavo.
Guest The Superstar Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Nooooooooooooooooooooooo. Talk about your bad timing. Here's hoping he can come back better than ever.
Bored Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Wow Smackdown is just on a downward spiral because of injuries. Now from reading what Meltzer said its just speculation that Benoit will take his place but he also doesn't list the six-man tag on his site so maybe they've scrapped that, although they could just have Undertaker (if healthy) take Benoit's spot in the six-man and it would make sense storyline wise. It'll be interesting if they shoot a taped injury segment on Smackdown or Velocity for Chavo to explain it as I imagine they'll cut out his match where he got hurt because it was so early in the match. In all honesty as great a tag team Eddy & Benoit would make they are a little above as a team to hold the titles as really who would compete with them? Personally I'd just keep the titles on Team Angle at this point.
Guest Coffey Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Benoit will probably be replaced by Rikishi or something....and then he will take Chavos place in the ladder match. That sounds about right...
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 And Judgement Day is officially the worst PPV ever.
Bored Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 And Judgement Day is officially the worst PPV ever. Well they aren't scrapping the ladder match and it could be even better if Benoit is the replacement.
ChrisMWaters Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 One has to wonder though... Will they use the Velocity match to explain things....or do like they did with Edge?
Guest Zack Malibu Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 They could make Ultimo Dragon or Rey Mysterio the replacement if they're looking to keep the ladder match good and Benoit in the match he's scheduled for.
Bored Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 One has to wonder though... Will they use the Velocity match to explain things....or do like they did with Edge? I'm guessing do like Edge because Chavo was wrestling a jobber and the injury happend about a minute into the match and was immediately stopped.
Guest The Amazing Rando Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Rey is still recovering...soooooo... ULTIMO~!
Garth Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Storyline wise Rey's still recovering, he's fine and was on the house show tour of England last week so theoretically he could take the place. But heres hoping for a speedy return from Chavo, i've been a big fan of Chavo's since i met him at fan axxess last year at Mania.
Zetterberg is God Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 The could always scrap the six man and put in Benoit. It's not like that match is important or anything.
Guest acnx Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Ouch, that's awful. Chavo has become one of my favorites lately, this is just horrible news. Get well soon Chavo... Who's going to replace him? Ultimo? I highly doubt that, but that would kick all kinds of ass.
Guest Lightning Flik Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 I think that the best probable choice would either have the six man tag changed into a two on two (with Nunzio just at ringside) and have Benoit team up with Eddie. Or say fuck to Ultros not doing anything, and toss him in. Cause now, he was at least right about particpating in JD in some way (even though that's not what he or I meant by it )
Guest AndrewTS Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Damnit...*sigh* What caused the injury, exactly? This sucks...I really like Chavo, and this may ruin the ladder match planned, as well as cause more of the "slowing down" of the WWE style. Some one has cursed WWE, I swear...
Guest saturnmark4life Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Personally, I'm not sure a ladder match is the best place to start with Ultimo. Too sudden, they need to establish who he is first, because he has little or no name value to the casual fan. Vid packages with current cruisers discussing his influence on the current style should help with that, and he should function as part of the cruiserweight division specifically, showing that 'high flying' wrestlers don't have to be spot monkeys. Debuting him on ppv in a dangerous match with two heavyweight rookies has a few things wrong with it for me. I think that spanky's a better choice, personally.
Guest HartFan86 Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 That sucks...I see Ultimo being the replacement.
Guest Downhome Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Even though this might mean a more higher profile match for Benoit, I am not happy as it means Chavo looses his shot to keep on shining. Oh well, get well soon Chavo!
Guest Lightning Flik Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 I think that spanky's a better choice, personally. ^^^He's in the 6 man tag. Seriously though, if Los Guerreros were walking out with the tag titles now, it's pretty much confirmed that Team Angle's going to be keeping them.
Guest Trivia247 Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 is Kendrick in the 6man? Gee Captain Obvious your question was answered dooyyyyy
