Mysterio is made of glass, out with concussion

[Stopspot]

WWE.com has learned that Rey Mysterio suffered a concussion at the hands of The Miz this past Sunday at SummerSlam. (RESULTS)

According to one backstage source, WWE personnel “suspected [a concussion] because he hit his head.” The following day, precautionary impact testing was conducted and “showed that [Mysterio] is below baseline, which means he sustained some sort of concussion,” the source explained.

WWE.com has confirmed that the San Diego native is not medically cleared to compete at this time. Mysterio did not appear on last Monday’s Raw, and has been removed from all events at least through this coming weekend. (MYSTERIO'S SUPERSTAR PROFILE)

During The Awesome One’s successful Intercontinental Title defense at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles last Sunday, the champion executed a brutal sit-down powerbomb. The maneuver snapped Mysterio’s head against the canvas, which likely caused the trauma and no doubt paved the way for The Miz’s victory. The self-proclaimed “Most Must-See Champion in WWE History” has had his awesomeness questioned in recent months, but The Miz reasserted himself with this dominance over the 619 specialist.

According to WWE physician Michael Sampson, Mysterio “had the first [test] on Monday, which showed us that he was below baseline. The physical exam was normal, but neuropsych testing was below normal. That’s the beauty of neuropsych testing,” he explained. “Based on reaction time and memory, we can measure on a computer, and he was below his baseline. That saves [Mysterio] from causing further injury from the concussion."

It was also confirmed that Mysterio will not return to in-ring action until he is at baseline and passes an exertion test. To be determined at baseline, Mysterio must pass the aforementioned impact/neuropsych test later in the week. Only then will he be permitted to undergo exertion testing.

WWE.com’s source estimated that the former WWE Champion “will probably be taking [the impact test today] if he’s still symptom-free, or later on this week.”

[Lacky]

The Miz is to blame.

 

[Leo C]

Yeah, it's Miz's fault. :bury:

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

Miz is a dangerous worker/noob.

 

[MegaBotch]

The Miz isn't exactly the best worker and Mysterio is at the point of his career where he is vulnerable to injuries. I'm not sure why WWE didn't see that this feud had the potential to be a complete disaster. They were just tempting fate.

Rey Mysterio just needs to retire he clearly cant handle being a wrestler no more

This is one of the most stupidest things I've ever read on this forum. Rey Mysterio is one of the biggest talents over in Mexico, and he has a big fan base. It would be stupid of him to retire.

Mysterio's fan base has nothing to do with anything. If he can't stay healthy he can't stay healthy. Injuries have cut many athletes and wrestlers careers short. Is Edge 'stupid' for retiring because of his neck injuries just because he was popular? of course not. Some things are more important than wrestling, and in most people's eyes your long term health would be one of those things. If Rey continues like he has been he isn't going to be able to bend over to play with his grand kids by the time he is 50. It's a sad thing to see happen, but at some point you have to say enough is enough. It's not like he hasn't had the greatest career of any high flyer in wrestling history or anything. What more does he have to prove to anybody? He's the man, but he is doing nothing but putting himself into bad predicaments by continuing to wrestle into his late 30s

Everyone knows my stance on BLFFL but she is right in this case.

This is why you don't do shit like this.



(And yes, expect this commercial to be spammed throughout any and all Rey Mysterio threads, because it's awesome.)

something is always wrong with him hope he will be fine in a week or two
