Meltz says:

"Chris Benoit had neck surgery today in San Antonio under Dr. Lloyd Youngblood. Surgery was considered a success. He's not expected back in action until early 2002. They taped the surgery and it will air on Sunday Night Heat (thanks to wwf.com)"

Right when he was heading on the right track too..

But what really sucks is how much the WWF has downplayed in on TV, given that he main evented the most recent PPV.

Maybe now with all this spare time he can practise his speaking in the ring ;) He'll never be a Rock, Austin or Foley (speaking wise) but it sure needs to improve.

Cheers,

Has anybody seen the alleged nudes of Tammy Lynn Sytch? If she was going to pose, she should have done it when she was over. Now, she only reminds me of Dana Plato.

Crap, guess it's more serious than they thought. Benoit is my favorite wrestler, oh well. Guess i'll find another for now, even though Austin and Rhyno are close. BTW who marked out at the WWF kicking the WCW Tag Team champions ass tonight? LOL, that was great.

Anyone else notice they are turning Austin into a homosexual? If they keep this up his character is screwed.

No it's not a homosexual angle, it's the &quot;Jealous best friend angle&quot;. He just doesn't want other people to take Vince away from him.

It's not homosexual. They're just trying to make Austin funnier and wierder looking. I mean, if he acted like a badass and just flipped off everyone, the fans would cheer. Now they just think he's wierd, which puts him further into the &quot;heel&quot; catagory.

<< how'd he get injured? >>

It started during the TLC match..and built up for several weeks, including the Smackdown match in Edmonton (or was it Calgary) against Austin. So he essentially gave Austin 10 german suplexes with a bad neck. He also was in that cage match where he fell, or 8 ft and went through a whole lot of nasty bumps there as well.

I'm too busy playing with my GI Joes.

Why don't you go back and play with your Barbies.

man that sucks!
Benoit was on his way too, now this.

I didn't think he would be out this long.



<< - Chris Benoit underwent surgery today in San Antonio, Texas for his injured neck and, by all accounts, the surgery was a success. However, recovery time for the surgery will be at least six months. Benoit had the option of going for a &quot;quick fix&quot; surgery, but that would have required another surgery in a year or two. Benoit is currently resting in hospital and has already met with a therapist. Footage of the surgery as well as an update on Benoit's condition will air on this week's WWF Sunday Night Heat at 7 PM EST on MTV. >>

Lol, Johnny, that's exactly what came to my mind, too!

Sorry to thread crap, but I think wrestling is a bit hokey and stupid.

Then I expect you never to watch another movie or TV show, except for those &quot;reality&quot; shows, because those are real....(note sarcasm here please)

Man this thread hasn't had any responses after 2001. The situation with Benoit is much different now to say the least.

It's pretty safe to assume he's not returning ever.
