Major Cena News Possible Spoiler

[Tr(uth)iple H]

John Cena is having serious problems with his neck which is causing numbness in one of his arms.

After having an MRI done on Saturday before the show in Madison Square Garden, he returned to MSG and said, "Long story short, my neck is fucked up badly."

That's the reason singles matches with Cena for this weekend were turned into tags, and why Batista worked most of the matches at all three shows.

Cena hasn't indicated if he's going to take time off at this point or not.

I was just going to post this.

I have read he will appear at Raw tonight but not wrestling.

As much as it's going to suck that he may be gone at the same time I wish him a speedy recovery.

The following is from WWE.com:

Three-time WWE Champion John Cena will be out of action indefinitely with a herniated disk in his neck. Requiring surgery, this injury is the result of several Batista Bombs delivered by The Animal at SummerSlam.

According to WWE?s Dr. Chris Amann, who reviewed the MRI results with Cena, the injury sustained by the Chain Gang Commander was considerably worse than originally thought with large disk herniation.

?It needs to be dealt with because I lost most of the feeling in my right arm and am having pain in my shoulder,? Cena told WWE.com. ?I?m losing 20 percent of my strength per day. If I don?t do anything about it, the injury will end up rupturing and then the surgery will be more difficult. It?s not easy, because surgery never is.?

Last year, Cena missed considerable time when he tore his pectoral muscle after receiving an RKO by Randy Orton on an announce table. He later made a remarkable return to the ring months ahead of schedule at the Royal Rumble this past January.

?It?s a different injury than the pectoral tear because that was more of a muscle injury; this is concerning my bones, which has a lot less blood flow than muscle tissue. It also has to do with my neck, which is a very fragile area,? Cena described.

?Every moment I stay away from the table is another moment something bad can happen. The disk is so bulged out and inflamed that any sudden move could make it worse.?

But when it comes to the Chain Gang Commander, the pain associated with this type of injury is perhaps second only to the anguish of being forced away from sports-entertainment ? his home. Still, Cena recognizes what he needs to do, even if it means stepping away from the ring for some time.

?You can either do one or two things: You can be upset or pout or you can know what to do to get better,? Cena said. ?I?m already in the mode of getting the surgery as quick as I can.?

He continued, ?In the last ten months, I?ve really focused on functional strength training and I?m stronger than I?ve ever been. My goal is to talk to the neurosurgeon about how quickly I can get back to full-throttle training and getting back into the ring. And that?s the ultimate goal ? to be strong as I can and get back into the ring as soon as possible.?

Cena is scheduled to see doctors on Tuesday morning with neurosurgeon Dr. Joseph Maroon at the University of Pittsburgh. Be sure to check back with WWE.com for updates on the condition of the Chain Gang Commander and his imminent surgery.

That sucks. Good luck, and a speedy recovery John.

Not overly annoyed at this but certainly wouldn't wish an injury on anyone. Was actually starting to get some entertainment out of Cena again now that they had stopped booking him as Super Cena. Shame. Oh well I'm sure he'll make it back for the Batista vs Cena rematch at Mania.

[Corey]

Kinda weird...He was injured before Unforgiven last time too wasn't he?

[Tr(uth)iple H]

^^^^^No Mercy.

[HULK IS JOB!]

Hmm wonder which neck he hurt.
Adamle said Cena hurt his NECKS..... idiot.

There is reportedly a lot of fear within the WWE when it comes to John Cena's neck injury. The belief is that the prognosis is going to be a neck fusion that would keep him out until at least the fall of 2009. This would mean he would miss WrestleMania and even SummerSlam, at least from a wrestling standpoint.

As we reported yesterday, Cena is in Pittsburgh today visiting a neurosurgeon and flying to San Antonio, Texas tomorrow to visit with Dr. Lloyd Youngblood, who has done numerous neck fusions for WWE performers in the past.


Got damn.

-- In great news for WWE, John Cena's surgery was a success today and the new prognosis is that he'll be able to return within two to four months. He didn't require fusion surgery, they just removed a fragment from his spinal cord that was blocking a nerve. Dr. Joseph Maroon told WWE.com that he was very positive about how the hour and a half operation went.

He should still take the year off, I don't want him to end up like Angle or Austin.

[GinoCan]
