Edge injured; out of action for undetermined length of time

[Mecca 0]

They will ALWAYS go back to Batista for several reasons.......1 being that he's H's buddy, it helps having someone back you in creative meetings.

[Nate 0]

Khali is ok, but he should not be a WHC, i guess at this point they are desperate

[MarvinisaLunatic 0]

I wonder what Nitro's announcement is tonight?

 

 

[Perfection 0]

"Two world champions in a row that have to forfeit their titles due to injury."

 

Plus, you've got Lashley forfeiting the ECW World Title. And the "title reign" of Vince McMahon. And Johnny Nitro holding a major title, much less a World Title. Plus, Taker's Streak/Batista's Run in a mid-card WM match.

 

Not a good year to be a champion unless you're John Cena the Monster Slayer.

 

 

Very true....yet amazingly enough every promo he gives he makes it out like he's the fucking underdog. If I have to hear another "im going to give it all I have and I don't back down" speech, I think I'm going to puke.

WWE.com have announced that Edge was forced to relinquish the world title due to an injury and that a battle royal will be held to determine the new champion.

[AntiLeaf33 0]

Sucks for Edge, but injuries happen. I wouldn't be surprised to see him become Champ shortly after returning again.

Chris Jericho!

As awesome as that would be, I'd rather see Jericho take over Cena's title, and have Cena chase Jericho.

 

Yeah but is Jericho even in ring shape? I mean, he looks like he's dropped a lot of mass (the bulk of what he had anyway) during his hiatus. Plus, when was the last time that he was in the ring?

True. I don't know. I guess we'll just have to wait and see if he even comes back in the first place.

[Hunter's Torn Quad 0]

And Khali won the battle royal and is the new champion.

[AntiLeaf33 0]

and there will be a Number 1 contenders match between Kane and Batisa to see who he faces at the Bash

[JimmyHendricks 0]

Khali as champ is pathetic. Hopefully he'll be jobbing it to Batista on Sunday. I always liked Dave as WHC, and he can carry it until Edge gets back. That's a pretty good feud right there, to me at least.

 

How long is Edge supposed to be out?

 

Also, why the quick battle royal? Why not a quick 4 man tournament or a Final Four type match? They immediately go to DEFCON-4 when something like this happens.

[Prophet of Mike Zagurski 0]

Batista has been involved with all the SD PPV main event matches this year. Just pointing it out.

[Human Fly 0]

The funny thing is, I think they could have made money off of Khali as champ earlier this year. When they had that string of PPVs one right after the other he could have beat Cena and then jobbed it right back to him 3 weeks later.

 

Road Warrior Batista Luger needs to win the title. I think even holding off until Summerslam is a risk.

 

Say what you want about Batista but he is still mightily over.

 

Edit - On WWE.com they have a picture of Khali holding the belt and he is holding it upside down. Ha! What a dick.

I haven't watch Smackdown in a bit, but WHO is that dude in the suit? I'm pretty sure that's not Davari.

It's Indian Bischoff, his new manager/translator.

Umm..... is that REALLY his name? If so, WWE.com needs a profile on him now!

 

I'd never thought I see the day with that banner:

No, but it might as well be.

Update on Edge:

 

Former World Heavyweight Champion Edge tore his left pectoral muscle at last weeks Smackdown tapings. This injury will require surgery to repair. His expected time out of the ring is four months. This is the reason why he was stripped of his title at tonights Smackdown tapings.

 

Edge commented on Smackdown on the list of injuries he has receieved, he said "I’ve broken my neck, dislocated my shoulder twice, torn my other pec, my elbows are mush, I have two protruding discs in my lower back. I even got bit by a brown recluse spider that turned into a flesh-eating disease – the list goes on."

I'm sorry but has anyone seen this: http://www.cakegiant.com/media.php

 

Fucking hilarious!

[UseTheSledgehammerUh 0]

Another Edge injury.

 

Don't forget when Edge was doing steroids to "heal his neck" in 2004 when he came back as The Worst Received Babyface Ever and tore his groin in the middle of his shitty comeback IC Title program with Jericho & Batista...and had to...wait for it...vacate the title.

 

"even got bit by a brown recluse spider that turned into a flesh-eating disease – the list goes on."

 

Is this legit or is he alluding to Lita giving him an STD?

Meltzer just posted the SD ME for GAB. I think we have found this generation's Steamboat - Flair:

 

Khali v. Batista v. Kane

Nice to see the WWE backing up Cena's claim on Larry King and giving the World Heavyweight Title to such a great entertainer, rather than someone who is simply big and muscular.

[Hawk 34 0]

Add that with Lashley-Cena and it's McMahon's dream card. Might as well strip Morrison of the title and shove Punk out. Put Big V and Thorn in for the title match.

[Kristianna 0]

I want Kane to win the belt. Are there any other Kane fans?

[UseTheSledgehammerUh 0]

Scroby, shut the fuck up.

 

I've been hyping Khali for forever and claiming he'd get a World Title run.

 

Go referee your backyard feds.

 

"I want Kane to win the belt. Are there any other Kane fans?"

 

Kane's taking the pin. Khali/Batty at SummerSham.

[Mecca 0]

I liked Kane once.....then he took his mask off and cut off his hair and well since then it hasn't been the same.

[UseTheSledgehammerUh 0]

With Coachman dropping the "10 month" bomb on Raw, I'm pretty sure Bobby Lashley, The Great Khali, and John Morrison are walking out of The Great American Bash as the WWE World Champs. What a sentence.

[Jingus 0]

Um... go announce your garbage fed? Sounds kinda the same, calm down gentlemen. (Khali sucks.)

 

I want Kane to win the belt. Are there any other Kane fans?

Yeah. Me. They dangle Kane as a #1 contender on a yearly basis, but for some reason never put the belt on him.

 

Another Edge injury.

Yeah, Edge gets hurt a lot. What do you expect from a guy who specialized for years in falling off ladders?
