Skip Sheffield injured at Houseshow

[Foreign Object]

Skip Sheffield suffered a leg injury at last night's WWE Raw house show from the Blaisdell Center in Honolulu, Hawaii. Sheffield was teaming with David Otunga in a match against The Hart Dynasty when he suffered what was described to us as either a knee or ankle injury. He was carried to the back by referees.

I'm wondering what they're going to do if the injury turns out to be serious.

3 down 5 to go CENATION STAND UP!

At least its a step up from food poisoning at Burger King.

Seriously, though, if this is a serious injury, I hope they have a good plan for the Nexus. They already are down to 6 (although it was by choice). Maybe this might involve recruitment, or showing the mastermind.

Husky Harris can fill the void of Skip.

Ya know, cause he's fat.

[Shaun2k5]

I really hope they bolster the numbers back up. Going down to five is a serious shortage in numbers and given that Otungas still in there, the qualities not exactly high.

good luck to him

if Skip is going to be out for a while they might want to consider adding Husky Harris to Nexus

[Crappler El 0 M]

Just as they kick a member out. I think when NXT is over, they could put Husky in the group. I was going to suggest that they ignore the injury and just not let him wrestle while he heals, but he may not be able too with this injury. If they could hide his injury, it would not be hard to keep him out of the ring since he is part of a big stable where a bunch of other guys could wrestle in that stable.

Mark Henry sits on him on the next live Raw.

Damn I hope it's nothing serious. Skip has been on fire since the angle started.

[Ryback on a Pole!]

This isn't too big of a problem,

If it's not a serious injury they could have Cena take him out for a few weeks, if it is serious bring in Husky Harris as a replacement.

Problem solved

I actually think Husky should join Nexus anyway. He just seems like a perfect fit, a guy who was overlooked and underestimated on NXT because of his physique.

This.

And if it is serious like an ACL or Quad they'll have to right him out, but if it's sprain they just have him just hit a clothesline here and there and help others win until he's healed.

this skip is on his way to being a star for wwe

i think edge and jericho take him out, lead pipe will do nancy kerrigan situation

then in 3 weeks if he returns he takes them both out with lariats.

Next week's Raw has already been recorded, so they've got almost a fortnight to find out the extent, and book round it. You could have the mystery GM come out on Raw in two weeks, and put Barrett in a 1 on 1 match, and ban the Nexus from the building, thus giving three weeks to decide, and with NXT season 2 ending the next day, maybe have a recruitment drive the Raw after, and (if it's long term) have a Sheffield beat down because he didn't want to add any season 2 NXTers.

[AriadosMan]

Problem isn't that hard to solve as long as Barrett is healthy, just use S2 guys or have Miz join Nexus to get revenge.

[KEEZ]

That sucks man, he brought a new level of intimidation with his Crazy Ren and Stimpy-esque expressions.

I hope it's not as bad as Ezekiel Jackson's injury, reading this is exactly what happened at the house show I was at in Glasgow.

[AriadosMan]

And just to clarify, Skip is my second favorite Nexus guy after Barrett. I'm not insulting him, just saying Barrett is the linchpin.

[The Ichi]

If he is injured for a while (and I really, really hope he isn't), I wanna see Kaval take his place.

Or maybe they'll just kayfabe give Darren Young a second chance, though that would look a bit dumb.

[Chainsaw]

Hopefully it's not too serious an injury, like a HHH injury. Him as the monster works really well. I easily think they can bring in Husky into the Nexus to fill in for him, and I already had him pegged to be Darren Young's replacement anyways.

[Sparvid]

Replace him with Daniel Bryan and have everybody act like he's been an uninterrupted member of Nexus since the beginning.

Bryan: "As I said to Otunga last week when we beat Morrison and R-Truth..."

[WorkingInAColeMine]

Percy Watson joins Nexus.
