JOHN CENA INJURED IN RAW MAIN EVENT, FULL DETAILS
by Mike Johnson @ 12:10:21 AM on 10/2/2007
Details are still sketchy but the word coming from backstage at the Raw taping is that WWE champion John Cena is believed to have suffered a torn right pectoral muscle during his main event match against Ken Kennedy. He is tentatively scheduled to undergo a MRI tomorrow to examine the severity of the injury. I don't have to tell anyone reading this what a major blow this would be to the entire company if Cena needs to be out for any extended period of time.
The injury appeared to happen during a botched hiptoss on Kennedy that ended awkwardly with Kennedy landing atop Cena. Cena then nailed an armdrag. The two ended up in the corner, which led to a clean break. Cena backed up to the opposite corner and was obviously favoring his arm immediately. Cena gutted through the match and post-bout angle with Randy Orton, where he was laid out following a RKO on the announcer's table.
Cena is scheduled to main event the No Mercy PPV this Sunday in Chicago, Illinois against Orton in a Last Man Standing Man.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – WWE Champion John Cena has suffered a complete tear of his right pectoral tendon and is heading into surgery, according to noted orthopedic surgeon Dr. James Andrews. Because of the seriousness of the injury, WWE officials will not allow Cena to compete this Sunday at No Mercy, and he will have no choice but to surrender the title.
Dr. Andrews said Cena could miss between six and eight months of action. Cena was injured during his match Monday night on Raw with Mr. Kennedy. Before visiting Dr. Andrews, Cena had said, “No matter how serious, the injury, one way or another I’ll be ready to compete on Sunday.”
But despite Cena’s vow, WWE officials will not allow him to compete at No Mercy. Therefore, he must surrender the WWE Championship.
WWE officials vow that there will be a WWE Championship Match this Sunday at No Mercy and a new WWE Champion will be crowned.
Stay with WWE.com for further updates on Cena’s condition and on No Mercy as they become available.

Man...I'm happy that there will be a new Champ on Sunday.....but now as long as they don't screw Orton out of a title match like the did Kane when Edge got injured.
I see Kennedy vs. Orton as the Main Event

My resentment of Cena has cooled over the last 6 months or so too. One thing that I'm sure of is that I am very sad that a person is injured entertaining me.
As for what this means for WWE? An even thinner roster with unless the Jericho rumours are true. I hope for WWE (and our) sake, they are.

 DAMN! ---- No real big loss, i mean how many people are sick of Cena being the champion? A lot. How many people want guys like Orton, Kennedy and co in the main event scene for a change? A lot i guess. This gives RAW a chance to change, i mean Kennedy, Orton hell Lashley when he gets back can take center stage. Then again HHH will likely come into the fold again, but i'd rather watch him feud with Orton or Kennedy than see yet another successful Cena title defense. So for me it's not bad news, it will make RAW better for the meantime till this era's Hogan gets back..  |

yea, and thats the sad part, is that they will build up Orton, Kennedy or whoever else (lashley won't be back until close to December) and then when Cena comes back, he will just dominate them despite them actually being good.

I am going to No Mercy on Sunday. Didn't want to as I spent way to much money for tickets, hotel, Cubs tickets, gas, hopefully some hookers...  It will all be worth it if Jericho shows up. Still, a fun day though. |

Still, a fun day though. I sold my No Mercy ticket on ebay for almost twice what I payed for it. All I had to do was hype Jericho and the bids came flooding in ;D Now if only the Cubs can make it to game 4  |
