Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Report post Posted June 20, 2004 A Broken hand is thankfully not TOO serious. I'm sure he can wrestle safely with a cast. Didn't Edge recently wrestle with a broken hand, or was that just a fake injury to add to the match vs. Kane? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Fook Report post Posted June 20, 2004 They'll probably shoot an angle where Orton breaks his hand to explain the absence and keep the feud going. Benjamin should be back in time for Summerslam where they can blow off the feud. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Jimbo Report post Posted June 21, 2004 Goddamnit, all this does is give Shelton more of a "reason" to ignore anything related to a wrestling hold in the ring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
