Rey Mysterio's Return Status, Randy Orton!

[Outsiders]

Rey Mysterio is ready to return to the ring, however has been kept off for several additional weeks to tend to his lingering biceps injury. Creative also wanted to keep him off TV to allow the seeds to be planted for his return feud with Kane. It's now just a matter of when they want to bring him back to television.

 

The only update we have on Randy Orton's status is that there is growing concern backstage the "accident" may indeed be a work. Many backstage have become suspicious considering the accident wasn't covered by the local media. Orton is a local TV celebrity, and from his description, the accident could have been fatal. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch was alerted about the supposed accident, but couldn't find any evidence on it being true. Orton claimed he struck a curb and was thrown from his bike on to the ground, which knocked him unconscious.

What? Orton's motorcycle accident could be a work? And, that's a concern, really?

 

If anything, it's smart booking. Makes the return beatdown by Orton on whomever that much more of a surprise.

 

Plus, it's not like "potentially tragic andlife altering" things have not been worked before in the business in order to work an angle. Fritz Von Erich had a heart attack, The Sandman feigned blindness, and countless other incidents have happened. That whole angle last year is gonna really pay off when Benoit returns and take down someone... think of the pop the crowd will have.

I guess that's good that Orton's accident wasn't real. I'm not thrilled it means he will be back sooner but I wouldn't wish a motorcycle accident on him.

 

Any one want to take bets on how long Rey lasts this run before tearing something else ?

WWE is indeed smart if this is the route they're going. Case in point, before Royal Rumble, it was said that John Cena was months from returning and his recovery was gonna be longer than expected then boom, Cena shows up out of nowhere and the crowd pops out of their minds. I detest Cena so I felt like throwing furniture, but it was indeed very smart by the WWE to pull this off and kudos to them for actually keeping it secret from the net community.
