| #4 Posted on 8.3.03 0226.22 | My (anal-retentive, Virgo) list, with best-case expected "clearance" date:
Chris Kanyon -- complications (early Jan'03)
Mark Henry -- ankle (early Jan'03)
Billy Gunn -- shoulder disloc & numbness (reeval Dec'02)
Bradshaw -- biceps tear (Mar/Apr '03)
Kevin Nash -- quad tear (Mar+ '03)
Scotty 2 Hotty -- cervical fusion (May'03)
Batista -- triceps tear (Jun-Dec/03 (3/03+3-6 mos))
Lita -- cervical fusion (June-July'03)
Bob Holly -- cervical fusion (Oct '03)
Randy Orton -- broken foot: 3 places, surg w/rods (Sep/03-Mar/04 (3/03+6-12mos))
Edge -- cervical fusion (Mar '04)
Kurt Angle (champ) -- cervical fusion (Mar'04(3/03+12+mos))
Remember that the dates they usually give for "will be out for" means til they're fully cleared -- there's generally some non-trivial time to get back in ring-shape from that point til they're really ready to work again. | The Vile1

| #5 Posted on 8.3.03 0318.57 | Just wondering. I know Chris Benoit is still on the active roster, but doesn't he have some sort of arm or bicep injury? I don't know if its going to keep him out of the ring.

TAKA asked for his release, and got it, a while ago. I think he's either wrestling in Japan or training in Japan. Either way, he's in Japan.
The Chase Is On:
8th: Oilers [28-23-8-8] 72pts; 15 games left
14th: Flames [21-31-10-4] 56pts; 16 games left
Flames must win 7 more games than the Oilers do to make playoffs

| #11 Posted on 8.3.03 1339.36 | Benoit has a tear in his bicep that doesn't need surgery at this point.
The Undertaker never got his elbow surgery and isn't working a full schedule.
Triple H's quad is still all taped up but he seems to be working more now so maybe its a little better.
Scott Steiner is always injured and one step away from a major injury.
Big Show's back is in bad shape.
Eddie Guerrero has been working through an injury but I can't recall what it is.

| #12 Posted on 9.3.03 0043.03 | See, this is why I miss the Ross Report. Is John Cena out with a legit injury, or did they merely write him out for a month or so? And if not, why would they work an injury ankle with a perfectly healthy guy?

|  #13 Posted on 9.3.03 0101.17 | The monthly "where's TAKA response": TAKA was injured and recovering in Japan a year or so ago, when his contract expired. He started his own federation (K-DOJO) which is all guys trained by him, and does the occasional work at other shows. He's gonna wrestle in an M-Pro show against the Great Sasuke, and if he loses, he'll take the Michinoku out of his name.

I was always of the mind that "Michonoku" was his actual last name. I guess it's like the sumo term "Yokozuna" (i.e. Grand Champion). Do other Japanese sports have cool-sounding titles for their champions?

| #15 Posted on 9.3.03 0155.35 | Michinoku means "north east," which is where Michinoku Pro runs their shows. M-Pro doesn't have any titles, although their guys occasionally win titles in other federations.
Few, if any, of the titles in Japan are named after the company that the title is defended in. Also, there's interpromotional shows fairly often as of late, so titles might go to another promotion. For example: All Japan's Triple Crown (it is three seperate titles unified into one) was recently won by Shinya Hashimoto, who is in Zero-One. At the Zero-One show I went to last week, Hashimoto and Ohtani fought Mutoh and somebody else (I already forgot who), who are from All Japan, and Takayama and some guy fought two Zero-One regulars, The Predator and Jimmy Snuka Jr. Takayama and his partner are from UFO, which is not a federation but a bunch of guys that hang out. Or something like that. Takayama is also the NWF champion, which is primarily a New Japan title.
Check out www.puroresu.com for more information. I'm too hungover to explain it any better.
edit: M-Pro does have some titles in its roster, but they aren't really "M-Pro" titles. It's more like titles that ended up there. For example, Sasuke is the NWA Lightweight champ (or something like that) and they also have the NWA Welterweight title.

Triple H has a calcified...something... in his thigh muscle. He couldn't wrestle Brock at the MSG show and has been working a lighter schedule since.
I think it was Zenk who made the point that alot of the injuries are coming from working twice the dates a year.

Have you got a reference for that? (The "something" is the hematoma, which becomes a much more problematic thing if it actually calcifies. Last I'd heard, it was resolving itself without calcification. Do we have a new update?)
If we're going to start to list all the injuries that the guys have that they continue to work through ... well, it'd be easier to try to come up with the list of who's completely healthy. |
