| and what was the point of hiring nash? jv posted this up today from the tna website: BREAKING NEWS: NASH UNABLE TO COMPETE AT LOCKDOWN - STILL DETERMINED TO APPEAR AT THE PAY-PER-VIEW
On Wednesday morning, TNA Wrestling learned that Kevin Nash will be unable to compete at this Sunday’s Lockdown Pay-Per-View due to a knee injury as a result of a staph infection the superstar recently suffered. Nash had been preparing in recent days for the event, but the injury has not healed to the extent to allow him to compete.
Director of Authority Dusty Rhodes will name a substitute to take Nash’s place in the Six Sides of Steel during this Sunday’s Pay-Per-View. TNAwrestling.com hopes to have an update on Nash’s injury this weekend.
UPDATE AS OF 1:20 PM ET: TNAwrestling.com has just learned that Kevin Nash phoned TNA management at noon to deliver word that despite the injury, he is determined to appear at this Sunday's Pay-Per-View. Nash will be seeing a doctor in Atlanta later today in an effort to get medical clearance to appear at the Pay-Per-View. We also understand a comment may be forthcoming from Jeff Jarrett, who is taking full responsibility for putting Nash out of action. TNAwrestling.com hopes to have another update on Kevin Nash by tomorrow morning. It's commonly known that Nash's interest in working with TNA has declined in recent weeks due to the way the company has utilized him. He missed the Border City Wrestling show in Canada last weekend not due to injury, but due to a film commitment. No word as to whether he has been pulled from TNA's PPV due to a legitimate injury, or a film commitment, or simply his unwillingness to commit to the show.
great, they hire an injury prone older guy (and don't get me wrong, i actually like nash, liked him as diesal and in the nwo beginning and middle, plus i just like his character so much that i can overlook some of his less than stellar wrestling) and now they can't or won't use him b/c he can't or won't be used.
oh well. i wonder who his replacement will be. i don't even know who doesn't have a match. |
