PWMania.com reader Paul sent the following last night:
It appears Edge may have injured his leg during his match with Jeff Hardy at tonight’s house show. After four or five minutes of drawing audience participation, including Edge pretending to slip off the ropes the two performers finally engaged in a collar and elbow tie up. Shortly after Edge charged Hardy into a corner of ring where Edge went down. It’s unclear why he went down or what part of his leg was injured, but the match immediately stopped without any further interaction from the two wrestlers. Referee Charles Robinson threw up the “X” arm signal and the bell rang, awarding Jeff the victory due to Edge not being able to continue. There was a thought that this was a horribly booked work, but Edge even grabbed the mic and apologized to the crowd saying, “Sorry.” Apologizing, of course is not typical of a major heel. The match ended with almost no action what so ever and Edge needed assistance back to the locker room.
An interesting bit of info: This is the 3rd consecutive San Diego event where a superstar was injured.
-Edge, of course tonight
-Evan Bourne injured his ankle at the 10/28 Smackdown taping, that was the Halloween edition of SD
-Randy Orton broke his collar bone at the June 2008 Extreme Rules PPV in San Diego against HHH in a Last Man Standing match.
