Enigma Posted February 27, 2004 Report Posted February 27, 2004 Edge, who has been talked about a lot here on the site this past week, has suffered an injury as he prepares to return to WWE from his 2003 neck surgery. He was scheduled to start his rehab at Ohio Valley Wrestling last week, but somewhere along the way suffered a badly sprained ankle. As a preventive measure, he is wearing a boot and is expected to be good to go within a month. credit: Dave Scherer/PWInsider
Guest Dynamite Kido Posted February 27, 2004 Report Posted February 27, 2004 Damn, that is TERRIBLE luck for him. But at least it's not serious, hopefully this doesn't become a regular occurance though.
SamoaRowe Posted February 27, 2004 Report Posted February 27, 2004 That is upsetting news. I've been watching some of my older tapes and such, and I'm realizing how much I miss Edge. He brings a lot to the table and I hope he gets a nice push when he returns.
Guest Loss Posted February 27, 2004 Report Posted February 27, 2004 Luckily, it's not a major injury. 'Taker was originally supposed to return in January of 2000 and worked a match in Puerto Rico and re-tore his surgically repaired bicep (or tricep, can't recall which) and was sidelined another four months.
Lightning Flik Posted February 27, 2004 Report Posted February 27, 2004 I think this might change the plans with where Edge goes. Healthy, he probably would've been heading to RAW, so I'm kinda figuring he'll be staying on Smackdown for now. But this probably means Triple H gets someone else to sedate his hunger to squash someone else though.
cawthon777 Posted February 27, 2004 Report Posted February 27, 2004 Couldn't he technically still appear on Raw the day after WrestleMania, which was the plan last I heard? If there are plans for he and Triple H to feud, they can still pull that off as is - it might just be a longer wait before the initial in-ring meeting. The injury can even be played up on camera.

The injury can even be played up on camera. ...shit. Still though, I think The Game's hunger would need to be satisfied quickly, and not wait for the long time needed.... Wait, this might get Triple H to nicely saute his fresh "main eventer" and we get feuds that last for a couple of months! Which could be a good thing.
Youth N Asia Posted February 27, 2004 Report Posted February 27, 2004 That sucks. Who's next on the cHHHopping block HHH: "Hey-uhh, you're Edge's little buddy, right?" Christian: "Yeah, that's me." HHH: "He's hurt again, so-uhhh I'll just have to squash you now-uhhh. You know, for the time being"
CanadianChick Posted February 27, 2004 Report Posted February 27, 2004 Damn, this sucks. At least it's only a small injury though. It'll only take a month to heal, right? I'm just glad his neck is fine.
Celtic Jobber Posted February 28, 2004 Report Posted February 28, 2004 That's a minor injury, he'll be back in time for Backlash. And he'll still get the Title at Summerslam.
Enigma Posted February 28, 2004 Author Report Posted February 28, 2004 I wonder if Edge is going to come back considerably bulked up like Eddie Guerrero did that one time.
King Cucaracha Posted February 28, 2004 Report Posted February 28, 2004 I think the question on everyone's mind is does he still have the beard? Or not... Anyway, that was kind of worrying. Luckily it's not too serious of an injury, because I'm beginning to want Edge back now the rumours have been flying around about him.
Guest Jimbo Posted February 28, 2004 Report Posted February 28, 2004 Bleh, I'm hardly excited by his return anyhow. Hope he gets better.
