TNA wrestler undergoes surgery, Edge gets upset with CNN host, ECW rating Submitted by Jason Brown on Wednesday, December 20, 2006 at 8:19 PM EST
TNA wrestler Konnan underwent a hip replacement today in Monterrey, Mexico. He will remain in the hospital until at least this Monday, December 25th. We wish him to a speedy recovery!
When former WWE Heavyweight Champion Edge and superstar Shelton Benjamin were on CNN’s Showbiz Tonight promoting the Tribute To The Troops special, the female host mentioned the mortar attack that occurred while the stars were in Iraq. Things got uncomfortable fast when she mentioned the mortar that landed only 300 yards from the base while the wrestlers were at Camp Victory. After they aired the footage of the attack the host said, "Now, we all know wrestling is fake...big shocker, but what goes on in Iraq is real and"… Then she asked Edge how he felt about traveling to Iraq and he responded that this was his first trip because the first time the superstars went he had suffered a broken neck in the fake industry.
Last night’s ECW on Sci-Fi did a 1.5 cable rating.
