Cena wrestled through a concussion?

[andrew8798]

Washington Redskins Offensive Lineman Adam Gettis recently appeared on Turnbuckle Weekly with Chuck Carroll, and during the interview, Gettis says he think John Cena suffered an injury during his SummerSlam match with Brock Lesnar. Gettis had the following to say:

“After that second suplex, you could just see it in his face,” Gettis said. “He started turning red and he was holding his neck and he just had that glazed look over his eyes. I just knew after that it wasn’t a good deal at all.”

Cena would seem the type to lie about it

So its okay to let Cena wrestle with a concussion but when the likes of Daniel Bryan or Corey Graves get them they are immediately told to not wrestle anymore.

I'm going to guess there's nothing to this given the only source saying this at all is some guy saying, "Yeah, he sure looked like he had a concussion." It was probably just selling, particularly he had some action after the SmackDown tapings.

It would be like Cena to lie about it, he's come back WAY too soon with injuries before.

I don't think they generally stop a match for a concussion and he hasn't wrestled this week has he?

If true, which I doubt, it's not ok to let anyone wrestle with a concussion. So absolutely Bryan and Graves or ANYONE should immediately be made to stop.

Man, y'all just tryin' to hate Cena now, huh? I'm not a fan of the guy but shit, a whole new level bein' discovered here.

[andrew8798]

I believe it this the same guy that would give his life for vince

I'd be more shocked if Cena didn't have a concussion at some point during that match with Brock. 16 suplexes to a guy who already had his neck broken can't be too great for him.

[The Trashman]

I'm pretty sure a concussion is going to be the reason why Cena cant wrestle at Night of Champions. Thats why the announced the match already and the way they did. He can come out on Monday and tell the fans how sorry he is that he cant compete. Him invoking his rematch shows he was willing but the body wont be able. I think he has a movie to film anyway.

Cena and Miz had got concussions during their Wrestlemania match and finished the match. Same for Taker at Mania this year. Ziggler suffered one early in his second World title reign and had to sit out most his title run because of that. They also got checked out after their matches to check the severity of their concussion. WWE don't send people out until they pass their Impact testing. Bryan finished his angle with Bray in the steel cage with a concussion. Bryan had to wait until pass his for clearance. Graves hasn't and rumored to be so bad that he may never get in the ring again. Last thing WWE wants is any of the talent to go back in the ring to soon and suffer worst brain injuries.

Don't forget Christian who got one, missed months because of it, then returned and suffered another within weeks. WWE won't let him back for his own good and Christian seems to be in agreement.

Hope it's false but it wouldn't be surprising to me. Some of those landings looked real rough.

[Brood Lone Wolf Funker]

Also Cena has a history of neck injuries so it could a aggravation of those injuries and not a concussion

[hisinsanity]

We're really going to trust some football player's "expert" analysis?

Did he do a neck and spine fellowship at Johns Hopkins after performing hundreds of surgeries? Hell no he didn't. He's a football player. He probably has to have a handler tie his shoes for him.

Ok we love Brock, but since his return, everytime he wrestles he hurts someone.

How so? Taker got injured, but there are reports of him getting banged up in every single match he has these days. This is just baseless speculation from someone nowhere close to the situation that is outright contradicted by Cena getting physical at the SmackDown tapings, and no one else got injured against him.

[andrew8798]

True but reports the brock made it worse. and as for Cena taken 16 suplexes not good for no one

On an interview triple h did just before wrestlemania of last year he mentioned that he got hurt on their Summerslam match. I trusts a football player's opinion, based on his experiences to recognize concussions, and as far as Taker, he got concussed after that single leg takedown on the outside, I never heard a story of Taker being sent to the hospital right after his match.
I'm not saying that Brock does it on purpose, it's just that he never acclimated himself to the wwe "light" style since his return, it's also not his fault he signed to wrestle 3 times a year. He even got concussed on his wrestlemania match with triple h.
He's like Vader, his stuff looks awesome but it hurts.
