Fan Eric L. just sent this in regarding a major Rene Dupree injury:

"I was at the Ohio Valley Wrestling house show last night (which was pretty good) and in the second match, former WWE World Tag Team Champion Rene Dupree was taking on a OVW wrestler named J-Man. About two or three minutes into the match, J-Man gave Dupree a boot to the gut and Dupree fell to the ring and started screaming in pain, 'My hernia! My hernia! The kick looked fine and looked to be just one of those freak incidents.

Quickly after that, Dupree rolled up J-Man and got a quick win which just seemed to be a quick way to end the match with Dupree still winning. As he rolled J-Man up, he still looked to be in an insane amount of pain. After the match, Dupree had to be carried off while still groaning and looking to be completely out of it. It looked like a groin injury or hernia or something, but has to be serious from the tone of everyone at ringside as well as the quick finish and the pain in Dupree's eyes."

Dupree suffered a legit hernia injury a while back and has been recovering from it these past few months, but it looks like the match re-aggravated his injury which could be very serious considering the degree of his past injury. It is confirmed that Dupree was taken to the hospital after the event so there is no doubt something went wrong. We will have more on the condition of Rene Dupree as it comes.

That really sucks

[Corkscrewed]

That definitely sucks for him.

Altho the mental image of a man rolling and screaming "My hernia!" is amusing, simply because I wouldn't really expect that. I mean, if I felt that sort of pain, I'd prolly be screaming my groin or something more physical. *shrug*

Didn't they report a few years ago that Dupree's career might be over due to that injury? Definitely sucks.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

A few years ago? This was like 2 weeks ago that it was posted. I'm surprised he was in the ring.

[Funky Fly]

Damn. I like Dupree a lot, and this really sucks if it's going to kill his career. Hernias are no laughing matter.

[Blitz]

Damn unfortunate. Dupree had potential. He's like what, 21 now?

"Owwww, my ovaries"

[Chavo Classic]

It's horrible news for Dupree. Although I've never been a fan myself I know when a guy has potential. Since he's only 21 and has been on the roster for nearly 3 years and is already a tag team champion, you've got to know that he had potential.

[hb2k]

Yeh, it was reported a while back that his career could be over due to the reoccuring hernia problems.

[Afterlife]

Well, on the bright side....We still have Sylvain.

[Shadow]

...Ow.

[Savio]

Hernias are no laughing matter.Don't tell corky that.

"WWE World Tag Team Champion"? I'm not sure but this seems to be mistakenly identifying René Duprée as both a World Tag Team (RAW) and WWE Tag Team (SmackDown!) Champion either in separate or concurrent runs, however it should be noted that since Duprée was in WWE he had the World tag belt (w/ La Rèsistance) and the WWE tag belt (w/Kenzo Suzuki), so saying he's had both tag belts is correct, but to assume he had concurrent runs with both belts at the same time on both shows would be assinine, seeing as how the brands were split at the time of both Duprée's runs with the belts, and thus, in that instance "WWE World Tag Team Champion" should have been corrected to "former WWE & World Tag Team Champion". I was thinking about saying "WWE/World" but that would indicate that he had been only WWE OR World tag team champion but that he couldn't've been both in his career which is incorrect.

[Jinx Chaos]

Well, on the bright side....We still have Sylvain.
true but which do you find better the old Sylvain or the new Sylvan

[The Naitch]

k, so what's a hernia again?

[Kane Knight]

At least he's not the "Conman."

[Skippord]

k, so what's a hernia again?

A special time in a boys life...

[The Naitch]

answer the fucking question please

[The Naitch]

like the abdominal muscle rips or something which connects to the groin?

[The Naitch]

I know of it, but not the details. I could look it up on google, but last time I did that I saw pictures of penises

From Wikipedia THE FREE ENCYCLOPEDIA

A hernia is the protrusion of an organ or tissue out of the body cavity in which it normally lies. By far the most common hernias develop in the abdomen, when a weakness in the abdominal wall evolves into a localized hole, or "defect", through which the protrusion occurs. These may present either with pain at the site, a visible or palpable lump, or in some cases by more vague symptoms resulting from pressure on an intraabdominal organ which has become "stuck" in the hernia. Fatty tissue usually enters a hernia first, but it may be followed by or accompanied by a segment of intestine or other intraabdominal organ. It is generally advisable to repair hernias in a timely fashion, in order to prevent complications which include intestinal blockage, gangrene, and death. Most hernias can be surgically repaired. Recovery rarely requires long-term changes in lifestyle.

A hernia may be likened to a failure in the sidewall of a pneumatic tire. The tire's inner tube behaves like the organ and the sidewall like the body cavity wall providing the restraint. A weakness in the sidewall allows a bulge to develop, which can become a split, allowing the inner tube to protrude, and leading to the eventual failure of the tire.

By far the most common abdominal hernias are the so-called inguinal hernias. Named for the Latin word for "groin", these involve the bulging of abdominal contents into a defect in the inguinal tunnel in the lower abdomen. Since they involve the embryological route of descent of the testicle, inguinal hernias are more common in males than females, and in males the hernia contents commonly enter the scrotum. Inguinal hernias are further divided into the more common "indirect inguinal hernia", in which the inguinal canal is entered via a congenital weakness at its apex, and the "direct" type, where the hernia contents push through a weak spot in its back wall.

Other abdominal hernias include umbilical, femoral, incisional, and diaphragmatic. Umbilical hernias, especially common in infants of African descent, involve protrusion of intraabdominal contents through a weakness at the site of passage of the umbilical cord through the abdominal wall. While these often resolve spontaneously in children, in some communities mothers routinely push the small bulge back in and tape a coin over the palpable hernia hole until closure occurs. This practice is not medically recommended as there is a small risk of trapping a loop of bowel under part of the coin resulting in a small area of ischaemic bowel.

Femoral hernias, which can be virtually indistinguishable from the inguinal type, occur just below the groin crease, when abdominal contents pass into the weak area created by the passage of the femoral blood vessels into the lower extremities. An "incisional hernia" occurs when the defect is the result of an incompletely healed surgical wound. Higher in the abdomen, an (internal) "diaphragmatic hernia" results when part of the stomach or intestine protrudes into the chest cavity through a defect in the diaphragm. A hiatus hernia is a particular variant of the latter in which the normal passageway through which the esophagus meets the stomach serves as a functional "defect", allowing part of the stomach to periodically "herniate" into the chest.

Hernias may be surgically repaired by pushing back the abdominal tissue, and then repairing the weakness in muscle tissue. Modern techniques involve synthetic materials that avoid over-stretching of already weakened tissue, and repairs performed through laparoscopes. Many patients are able to return to work within a week or two, while heavy activities are prohibited for a longer period.

As above, hernias are primarily described by location. Each type can be further categorized as:

What the heck was I thinking? I actually meant "months" at the time. Might have been weeks. :o

[The Naitch]
