That's the current word going around backstage. No Cena and now possibly no HBK. You gotta be kidding me. NOW I think they need to bring over either Trips or Taker after Unforgiven if he's out for a while with a triceps tear. We'll be watching this story closely today!

To me, to be a conservative means to conserve the good parts of America and to conserve our Constitution. Posts: 4,910 Group: Administrator Member #1 Joined: Aug 26, 2008	Not that it matters in light of injury, but I was really looking forward to Jericho/Michaels at Unforgiven. Hopefully the injury isn't as severe as initially reported and the match can still happen without any real risk for Michaels. I think having Jericho demolish Michaels at Unforgiven and put him again would be good for the feud, which I hope will culminate in a Michaels victory at WM25. Here's to hoping he's okay and/or has a speedy (yet healthy) recovery.

He is getting the injury evaluated by doctors today. After last night's show, Michaels said he was working his match with Chris Jericho at Unforgiven no matter what. Nothing has been said regarding the match being pulled, but of course, the doctors may say otherwise today. Long-term, Michaels is probably going to be out for four to six months. A tricep tear is something that looks nasty and can be easily seen a mile away. I have no idea how these two can work a very delicate "work angle" that knocks HBK out for the necessary storyline. If the doctors come back with the bad news, I can't see this match happening.

Michaels is still scheduled to face Chris Jericho at Unforgiven this Sunday. Michaels had the following to say about the injury: "Before the MRI my doctor was 99.9 percent sure that I had a full tear of my triceps and that I would experience bruising, swelling and a loss of my range of motion. Through the power of prayer, none of those things happened and I am ready for Unforgiven. Regardless of what the MRI revealed, I made it clear that I was going forward with this match."

He has been cleared to wrestle this Sunday at WWE Unforgiven PPV according to WWE.com.

Through the power of prayer, none of those things happened and I am ready for Unforgiven." HBK is way overdue to take some much needed time off. I think this storyline with Jericho has gone as far as it can and it needs to end here. I think what needs to happen, booking wise, is that both Jericho and HBK basically destroy each other and HBK wins by the thinnest possible margin. HBK can then leave for x amount of time to get healed up. The storyline already sets it up as him taking a risk against doctor's direct orders anyways, so it works out perfectly. Jericho can take a week or two off to sell any injuries or whatever and move on to the next feud.

Hey man your clock won't flush!!! Posts: 3,176 Group: Moderators Member #4 Joined: Aug 28, 2008	I say HBK needs to retire at WM....the storyline builds right into the Flair/HBK from last year. Some one wants to retire HBK, they want to "Sacrifice" him on the biggest stage. I am thinking....either, Orton or possibly a Heel Punk, or Trips

I'd be shocked if they gave Punk such a vital, important role like that but I guess you never know.

The difference between Flair and HBK is that although Flair wrestled longer, HBK wrestled harder. HBK's body can't hold up much longer, and I think he'd be smart to take an out of ring character role. Perhaps GM.

It's become increasingly risky, especially since he's been WAY overdue to take time off anyways.
