CubbyBr 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2006 -Dave Meltzer is reporting that Konnan did not have hip replacement last week in Mexico as scheduled. Konnan was opened up by doctors, but it was discovered that his kidneys were in poor shape. Due to the condition of his kidneys, the surgery was postponed. Konnan is back in the United States undergoing kidney dialysis. Konnan is now scheduled for surgery next week, and will need a kidney transplant. -gerweck.net Damn that doesn't sound good. Konnan has been unbelievable on the mic for the last 7 months. Hopefully he'll be alright. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2006 Man, you gotta wonder what TNA will do with LAX if Konnan can't come back any time soon. They have a good thing going with him playing the Michael Hayes role to Homicide and Hernandez. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Mos_Def Report post Posted December 26, 2006 This is serious. I dont know if my first concern would be the future career status of LAX or even Konnan's for that matter. Besides, Homicide is a more than able talker...he'll be fine. Best of luck to Konnan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2006 Homicide is a terrible talker, unless he just sucks on purpose in ROH - LAX is finished without Konnan on the mic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2006 Homicide is a great promo and has a history of cutting some hot promos over the years. I'm betting you have issue of his habit of being overly "hip-hop", which is what he is supposed to be. Look at his shoots and other interviews and he can cut a fantastic articulate promos. Calling Homicide a bad promo is like saying he is just a brawler when he can talk and he can wrestle but it suits him better with his character to do the fast paced promos and do the big brawls. Homicide could easily carry LAX if Konnan needs to miss time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Homicide is a fantastic promo...Saying he is bad left me scratching my head, but you're probably right, that in all likelihood speaks to whatever personal biases that poster has.
