The one whom I'm concerned for is Cena's surgeon.
How insanely difficult must it be to operate on something you can't see?

You know what's sadder?
Cena isn't going to make some super recovery like previous times because NBC loves the guy and they and the WWE will be damned if Cena risks himself like that again. The whole point of Cena doing this Hollywood stuff was to promote the WWE, NBC is probably just as pissed tbh.
Man, I'm just shocked.
I have no idea how this WM will go.

Well that sucks for him. Maybe some of his smaller film roles can lead him into an eventual exit strategy from wrestling. He seems like a really good dude, he's accomplished everything he can, hopefully he can get out before he's broken down.

I feel terrible for John. I think in this case, you need to promote Balor, Corbin and Joe and rely on Nakamura and AJ Styles. Might have to clear Bryan and maybe even make a phone call to this guy in Chicago and see if anything can be worked out. I don't think Road Warrior Animal is the answer here. Well played, my friend!!

As I said earlier, no chance on Punk because he has the UFC deal and is a big part of their whole deal in 2016 and Bryan I don't see at all because of the concussion stuff, especially when one of the lawsuits is in Dallas courts.

That sucks, hope he makes a quick recovery because I want to see Big Match John vs The Big Dog and he is also one of the few people left in the company that I would get excited about seeing Undertaker wrestle.
Meanwhile, there are no other choices for Vince... it's Heath Slater's time.

This is beyond huge considering the timing. It likely means a very big role will be asked of Rock, who possibly will not be able to wrestle depending on insurance issues with films but that can be mitigated if WWE foots the bill, but time is of the essence as the build will have to begin in a month. Daniel Bryan absolutely needs to be given consideration health permitting. And Bullet Club coming in makes an extreme amount of sense if that is true.
Roman Reigns alone is not capable enough to carry this load as of now, but I guess its sink or swim time for him. They need to be careful because if he got injured, oh boy. Its going to be real interesting to see what exactly the plan for him is, because putting him up against Brock may not be smart b/c of how people like Lesnar even if they went full heel with Lesnar and aligned him with Vince.
This past year I've learned to really like John Cena inside the ring which is something I never thought I'd say so I wish him well and have no ill will, but at the same time you know what? This is actually kind of exciting. This is actually an opportunity for this company to take a chance and perhaps some drastic steps to reconfigure the product and regain some interest. Obviously, I'm looking at the bright side.
They could potentially kill two birds with one stone and have Taker/Reigns for a big money match as well. IMO Reigns/HHH or Reigns/Brock is almost too safe. If Bryan can go and is returning at the Rumble have him eliminate Brock and then have him vs Lesnar.

Well, there you have it. WWE World Heavyweight Championship Iron Man Match: Roman Reigns (c) vs. Dean Ambrose Brock Lesnar vs. Rock Reigns vs. Ambrose Undertaker vs. Owens HHH vs. NJPW guys That's a big enough top of the card, I guess. Or better yet, Shawn Michaels enters the rumble as #30. Wins the WWE title. Then we get. Shawn Michaels vs. Rock Brock Lesnar vs. Owens Undertaker vs. NJPW guys HHH vs. Ambrose

Isn't Reigns dealing with bone chips in his elbow too?

In all seriousness I hope he gets better. Along with the physical pain, this mist be incredibly mentally tasking for him as well. I just finished reading his interview in this month's Muscle and Fitness, and it sounds like it overhauled his gym regimen a few years ago to avoid such a susceptibility to this kind of injury that comes with age.

Rats. Might be cool then to work a deal with some other promotions and try some talent exchanges or showcases.

Who is out there for WWE to throw a dump truck of cash at for Mania? And don't give me the "Use the guys you got" excuse, this is WrestleMania at AT&T Stadium, 100k people, they need a draw and Mania has always been about the outrageous and celebrity. Punk, UFC deal so a no go. Jeff Hardy, injured and TNA. Hogan, old, broken and racist. Austin? He's been saying no but in this case? He'd have 3 months to get in shape. HBK? Said that if an emergency he'd be back but that was years ago. Is Batista a possibility? Him vs. Brock might have some potential. Can't see Batista doing it, even if he wanted to. He starts shooting Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 in February and NO WAY is Marvel going to run the risk of having one of its key actors getting hurt midway through filming one of its biggest movies in its cinematic universe.
