From PWInsider:

There is a fear that Alberto Del Rio, who is still recovering from his groin tear and surgery, suffered a concussion last week. As late as yesterday, there was discussion he may need to be pulled from the No Way Out PPV, although PWInsider.com has not confirmed that he was officially pulled. Del Rio is set to challenge Sheamus for the World title at the PPV.

=======

Alberto Del Rio was pulled from his house show match against Sheamus in Salisbury, MD last night. It appears the report that we had yesterday about him suffering a concussion at Tuesday's Smackdown taping is true. If so, and he can't work at next weekend's No Way Out PPV, WWE will figure out whether to put Kane or someone else in the World Title match this week. Boy they sure are dropping like flies in Stamford.

Well, I don't think anyone on SmackDown can replace him.

The only reasonable guys I can think of that can replace him, who aren't injured are Ziggler and Miz.

Hopefully it isn't Ziggler though as I would be 100% screwed in TPWW Survivor. :shifty:

And now Truth is injured.

From PWInsider:

The word making the rounds is that WWE Tag Team champion R-Truth either severely sprained or broke his foot during the company's tour of Spain. Brodus Clay replaced him in Barcelona, Spain, defending the WWE Tag Team championship.

Maybe they should stop spreading everyone so thin and they wouldn't get hurt as much.

Wrestlers, along with society in general, are pussies compared to what they used to be

Uhg horrible timing on both of those. Del Rio won't be gone long with a concussion hopefully, and I really hope Truth only suffered a sprain and not a break. I enjoy Truth immensely tbh.

Terrible lies and slander. Del Rio will wrestle, and win the title. Will then wrestle in title matches on every RAW and SD and win. This will go on for the next 10 weeks or so.

lol @ Miz. Seriously though, it's either the Bump o' Matic, or they'll throw Ricardo in there.

Meanwhile, WWE heads Vince McMahon and Triple H are becoming increasingly worried that Del Rio cannot be relied on due to injury concerns. He is being compared to former WWE star Mr. Kennedy (now known as Mr. Anderson in TNA Wrestling), whose reputation for being injury prone partially led to his release from the organization in 2009.

I mean, does this even make sense? Del Rio's concussion was apparently caused by Sheamus. I know Mr. Clark is full of shit, but c'mon...

Del Rio has one concussion and one other injury. I wouldn't call him injury prone, especially when guys like Rey and Triple H have had 10 times the number of injuries of ADR.

Too bad Cody is still feuding with Christian I'm just sayin.

Here's a random possibility that I haven't heard discussed for a replacement...

Tensai

They wouldn't have to worry about breaking his undefeated streak anymore, he's been getting involved in the main event for a while and holds pinfall victories over Cena and Punk and I'm sure he and it would make sense with Laurinaitis' hatred of Sheamus that he would use Tensai as a replacement seeing as how Tensai has been his go to guy for putting guys in bad situations. Plus I'm sure they could have a fine match.

Actually I was under the impression that Sheamus was going to have a program with Tensai shortly after he debuted but then again maybe there's a reason why those plans changed.

If all these guys keep getting injured/suspended, Undertaker's phone will ring before WrestleMania.
