You read that right, WWE is trying to kayfabe that Michael Cole suffered the same injury that killed El Hijo Del Perro Aguayo. Just completely disrespectful of the company.

Of course, there is a possibility that that actually happened. I mean probably not, but it could be real.

Well this is gonna go over well here.
To play devils advocate, I can see someone faxing a memo about this to Vince and him saying "What the hell is Aaah?"

Like I said in the RAW running commentary, they could have said CONCUSSION. They could have said "He's shaken up but THANK GOD he's okay."
Unbelievable.

I think the reactions in this thread are overblown. Its the medical nomenclature for a broken neck. I highly doubt that the majority of people reading this in a kayfabe sense will correlate that with Aguayo since the majority of people will have no idea who he even was.
I can understand giving them grief over other things they've done, but this is a little bit nitpicky overkill. An F5 could break a neck and they regularly use medical terminology in this type of things.

I'll put that one down to stupidity rather than malice. For those who seek the truth, consult wikipedia:

Yikes.
WWE's tendency to just go through Wikipedia articles to find a suitable fake injury is so pointless when they can, as someone else said, just say the guy suffered something like a concussion. It's infinitely more believable and would certainly prevent genius timing like this.

I just wonder if someone backstage remember hearing "Cervical Fracture" and went with it not remember where it came from or they just asked the doc for an injury that could come from the F5 and sounds bad?

I highly doubt Perro was in anyone's mind when they came up with this. It's an unfortunate coincidence. There's no reason to goof on his death.
