Mark Henry’s vicious assault on Friday Night SmackDown was apparently the last straw for Chris Benoit. WWE.com has learned that because of injury after injury, mile after mile and event after event, Chris Benoit feels it’s time he should take a sabbatical. Sources close to Benoit state that he is exhausted both physically and emotionally, and that with time off Benoit will recharge and come back better than ever.

With Benoit on the shelf indefinitely, Mark Henry can officially add one more list of victims that he has brutally injured. The World’s Strongest Man made an immediate impact upon returning to WWE last January when he took out Batista. As a result of the injury, The Animal was forced to relinquish the World Heavyweight Championship and hasn’t been able to compete ever since going down.

More recently, Henry temporarily knocked Kurt Angle out of commission with rib injuries. Angle managed to come back from the injuries to face Henry at Judgment Day, but the World’s Strongest Man came out on top. It’s no surprise that the won by incapacitating Angle long enough to win via count-out.

And now Benoit is out of action. Three 6 Mafia was in the house to perform Henry’s entrance song, Some Bodies Gonna Get it in front of a raucous crowd in Bakersfield, Calif., and it proved to be a bad omen for the Rabid Wolverine, as he did indeed “get it�. After the action spilled to the floor, Henry placed Benoit against the steel ring post and repeatedly avalanched him against the unforgiving structure. Benoit was left bloodied, and he had to be stretchered out of the arena. There’s no telling how long it will take him to recover from these injuries.

The problem I see for Smackdown now is how to keep Batista and Orton apart now until their big blow-off match. Batista has Booker to keep him busy but who does that leave for a face to fued with Orton? Rey's too small and has no momentum anyway and I think Orton/Taker has completley run it's course.

It's sad to look at the SD! title picture and the only ppl seen are Batista (gone), Orton (back next month), Benoit (gone till who knows when), JBL (gone for good.?), Taker (occasional appearance), Rey (the longer he has the belt, the less ppl like him), and Angle (hurt). Really really sad.

Completely agree with you Spyda. Rey is starting to get on my nerves. Just want Batista and Orton to come back and make things interesting again.

I think Orton will feud with Angle, due to the storylin that Angle broke Orton's ankle
