I'm torn because while I don't totally dislike HHH, and for goodness' sakes I don't wish injury on anybody, I feel he is on TV waay too much. So part of me won't be upset at not seeing him on TV as much. I do wish it was because he went on hiatus or vacation.

Horrible news I really hope HHH can get through this injury and come back soom... Other than that, it'll show again how Triple H is important to RAW... you don't realize how good he is until you don't see him regularly. And now let's see what's gonna happen! Not that WWE had plans to get the belt off Cena I guess, but... RAW's now missing the most important name/worker. And with HBK half-injured, it's not looking great. Rated RKO will probably go against Cena. Nothing new nor interesting!

I don't care how much money you have to throw at him, WWE...
...Bring back Jericho.
Because you're going to need him now...

He'll still come out in a wheel chair and cut a promo then sit at ring side while Shawn has a match with either Edge or Orton (it will probably change every week). While HHH is sitting in his wheel chair cutting the promo Michaels will run around him in a circle. I can see it now.

No...everyone gets injured, and at least Trips has the balls to work the rest of the match, putting the business before his own body. One more reason to respect the man. I agree, I gained a lot of respect for him just on the fact that he worked a whole match after blowing his quad, even getting put in the Walls of Jericho

Not that HHH isn't brave for finishing the match (and possibly screwing his leg up even more) but that's the general rule anyway when an injury is suffered in a televised match. You always finish the match.

Actually, I hear he wasn't fired...but is still training/waiting while they finish tying up the last few loose ends that occured with him being on probation. *sigh* Long story. But yeah, Marty should come back and team up with Shawn for some Rockers/RKO vengeance. Maybe its just me, but if Marty can still go like he did against Angle, I'd DIE for a Rockers vs RKO tag title ladder match. If that was on PPV I'd actually order it, so long as the undercard wasnt total crap. No, I'd mark like a child too. That would be a hell of a tag match considering we'd get a chance to see more tandem offense rather than "Hunter? Your spots. Shawn? Your turn." Besides, I'm an unashamed Rockers mark. VRS: yeah, there definitely seems to be confusion among the ranks re: Marty's employment but I'd like to give Marty the benefit of the doubt (for the zillionth time, I know) and hope that he's on his way back in. The Angle match Godz and I are talking about is proof that he can still go.

What U2 song is best for the comeback video? Exit? Or I Fall Down ;D Though Triple H would want it to be God, Part 2.

Oh yeah, he's out now. www.pwtorch.com/artman/publish/article_18861.shtmlTriple H is in Birmingham, Ala. right now having his leg injury from last night's PPV examined. Today's diagnosis is a quadriceps tear on the opposite leg of his last injury. He is scheduled to have surgery tomorrow. He tore his other quad on May 21, 2001 and returned about eight months later. Typical recovery time for this injury is nine months. After surgery, he will be in a wheel chair for a month or two, then on crutches for another two months, and then wear a leg immobilizer for another stretch of time, before moving into the rehab stage. If he follows a typical recovery time pattern, he won't be able to return to action until around October 2007, missing WrestleMania and Summerslam. The tentative main event for WrestleMania was Triple H challenging John Cena for the WWE Title. That will not happen now, obviously. A new WrestleMania main event will have to be devised, and the DX gimmick will probably be discontinued, barring Shawn Michaels "recruiting" a new member to take Hunter's place. Vince McMahon and Kevin Nash suffered similar quad tears in recent years. Nash was out nine month. He did not continue wrestling his match when he tore his quad. Hunter did, putting other body parts and his opponents at risk of injury as he finished the match. Hunter wraps his knees tightly before wrestling to protect the knee, but it could also conceivably lead to a tendency to more easily tear a quad. It also might stabilize his legs even with a torn quad so he was more able to complete a match than someone suffering the same injury without his knees wrapped. Having suffered the same injury on his other leg in 2001, he probably immediately knew what happened. Michaels, meanwhile, has shown signs of being very worn down by the schedule and in need of time off himself, increasingly so over the last year. The Triple H injury puts more pressure on him to work through his fatigue and nagging injuries (including continuing issues with his lower back, which forced his retirement at one point) at least through fall.

Wow...never mind the fact that they had HHH vs. Cena brewing...now they really are kinda f***ed.
I think it's going to have to be a unification match between Batista and Cena.

I didnt watch the ppv last night so my question is, How did the injury take place? Was it a fluke or a result of a move or whatever?

Best thing they could do now: Let Orton/Edge tear Michaels apart like they did with Flair a couple of weeks ago, so he can recover for a couple of weeks. On the road to Wrestlemania, he could return seeking vengeance with a new partner at his side and HHH as some sort of manager ringside. Besides: I agree that HHH will return to TV asap, even if it is for cutting promos in a wheelchair. It could make the feud between DX/Rated RKO seem even more personal.

Apparently Orton landed on Trips leg and screwed it up. Id like to see footage, because I dunno how exactly that could be done on a spinebuster unless he was getting back up and Randy tripped him up.
