Wwe Edge Spear

The Smackdown brand took a major blow on Friday night as Edge suffered what is believed to be a torn Achilles tendon during a house show match in San Diego, CA. If that is indeed what the injury is, it's expected to keep him on the shelf for the rest of the year and will force the WWE to change their plans for both Edge and Chris Jericho, his partner as Unified Tag Team Champions. There's obviously no plans in place at this time for them to be able to figure out what to do since the injury just happened this weekend, but from reports it looks like they're trying to find something from the footage on this past Friday's Smackdown show to explain the injury. Expect to see either Legacy or The Colons pick up the straps from Jericho soon after the announcement is made on television, or perhaps for the belts to be vacated with Legacy and The Colons fighting it out for the titles.

As I said previously this is a terrible blow to Smackdown as Edge has been one of the best performers of the year and was easily in the running to be considered as an MVP of sorts for the entire company. Since being elevated to the top of the card, he's put on great matches, had consistently solid feuds and been one of the most watchable characters no matter what brand he was on. Edge had gone through a good run of being injury-free as of late, but there is word going around that he was working around some nagging injuries which could have led to him injuring himself further. As much as that can be the case in some cases, when it's an Achilles rupture it just goes with no real warning and can happen just as easily to someone who is completely healthy as it can to someone with pre-existing injuries.
