2009 Royal Rumble Location, Major Update On HBK!

[Outsiders]

Right now the 2009 WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view is set to be held in Detroit, Michigan. WWE last held a pay-per-view in Detroit last year for the big WrestleMania 23 that brought a lot of money to the city.

 

There was a lot of talk backstage at RAW last night how Shawn Michaels’ injury will be changing the RAW booking and storylines if he has to take some time off. There was a bit of chaos after the tapings with people hanging around and wondering what the deal with Michaels was. There was some concern last night over how well Shawn will be able to perform in an Unsanctioned match this Sunday, which is essentially a brawl. There is still no confirmation on the injury but belief backstage last night was that Shawn tore his triceps. WWE probably won’t acknowledge the injury, if they do at all, until after RAW tonight because in their minds RAW is still live to the fans. Typically an injury like this can keep you out of action for 4-6 months. The worse case scenario would see Shawn Michaels out until around WrestleMania time next year and the best case, he will be back in about a month.
