NO!

nooo!!!! the best all-round performer on smackdown.
i hope for a speedy recovery and when he comes back, push him to the world title before its too late
Posted By: qwert (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 04:45 PM
There goes any reason I had to watch Smackdown.
Posted By: Sexylegend (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 04:47 PM
he wasn't being used anyway. no loss.
Posted By: SWAM (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 04:55 PM
V_V Get well soon Christian.
Posted By: Yup. (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 04:56 PM
Finally, now I can watch Smackdown without being subjected to him.
Must be the roids.
Posted By: Guest#4157 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 04:56 PM
NO!
Posted By: Guest#4936 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 04:45 PM
If that's a play on his theme, well done.
Get better, Cap'n.
Posted By: neverAcquiesce (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 04:57 PM
He will be missed. On a more positive note, Cena recovered from his 'potentially career-threatening' pectoral injury within three months. Mind you, he also recovered from neck surgery within the same span of time, so he's probably just a monster. Still though, hopefully that will give Christian a bit more hope during his recuperation.
Posted By: Frie (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:00 PM
Damn. I'm seeing Smackdown in November aswell...
Posted By: JACKANAPES (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:03 PM
I hope Christian's recovery is swift and successful. That being said, this is going to be perfect for Del Rio to get over by "shelving" Christian for a half a year.
Posted By: Jordan (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:04 PM
This sucks,get well soon Christian. Hope he is back by WM.
Posted By: Still Guest#8287 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:04 PM
Well there goes his push.. oh wait.

CLB.
Posted By: MBD (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:10 PM
Well that sucks the big one.
Christian out, Punk jobbing to Big Show. Guess Ill just stick to Impact.
Posted By: Guest#6969 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:12 PM
get well 4 money in the bank and finally win the fucking thing... you're only the best worker on either roster.. maybe this is what was need to create a proper buzz. could be 4 the best..
Posted By: Guest#1529 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:14 PM

Posted By: JohnnyPresley (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 04:45 PM
6 months puts him right in line for a mid-March return, so he would be right on time for 'Mania.
Posted By: Guest#8640 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:17 PM
thought you said star....:rimshot: get well christian, here's hoping matt hardy gets the push you've been given lately
Posted By: faceman802 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:27 PM
Didn't Cena have the same injury and came back ahead of schedule. Hopefully back in time for Mania. Just as I was gonna watch SD more frequently! Damn get well soon Instant Classic!
Posted By: Will (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:29 PM
Like it matters. It's no loss considering Christian was nothing more than a jobber
Posted By: Guest#7501 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:31 PM
So no Jericho until the new year AND now no Christian? It's up to Edge to entertain me or else it's MNF for Peep #1372...
Posted By: Peep #1372 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:34 PM
maybe they'll have something good for him to do when he gets back.
Posted By: Guest#1303 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:36 PM
get surgery, then host the Peep Show for a few months.
As he recovers, have Punk hassle him over painkillers.
Posted By: Guest#1304 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:50 PM
This actually (beleive it or not) could be a great thing for Christian. His angle with Alberto would have done nothing for him and everything for Alberto.
Now if Alberto ends up winning the world title somewhere in the next 7 months Christian can be his first challenger.
A blessing in disguise for Captain Charisma.
Posted By: JoeDan (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:54 PM
This sucks. Christian's been one of the most consistent performers since coming back and his feud with Alberto Del Rio was making him relevent to the audience again. And with Christian injured there's a real lack of veteran midcarders with Matt and Christian gone.
The only good thing about this is that maybe if we're lucky Finlay will be back on TV.

Here comes number 30!!

Wishing Christian luck in his future endeavors.
Posted By: CM Wolf (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 06:09 PM
Go back to TNA, Christian. They actually used you there.
Posted By: Steve307 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 06:15 PM
That sucks, Christian's the main reason I watch the WWE anymore. He's so money even while being underutilized as a midcarder.
Posted By: Leo (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 06:19 PM
Ahhhh that sux sorry Christian but why not have him run his mouth off to Kane and have Kane burry him alive that whould be cool but have him come back the night after Wrestlemania and take the title Whaaaaaaaat? NO PEEP SHOW!! There gonna have to do something for the missing stars on Smackdown with the new SyFy but what?
Posted By: yabrokehomie (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
Didn't realize Christian had any muscles.
Posted By: Gebius (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 06:50 PM
Haha....should have stayed in tna.........
Posted By: dam (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 07:03 PM
Alberto Del Rio.
Who?
Posted By: Guest#6950 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 07:12 PM
First Jericho is out to tour, then his next-door neighbor is out on the DL.
Bummer.
Posted By: guest (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 07:13 PM
Get well soon Christian
Posted By: Guest#1706 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 07:38 PM
Alberto Del Rio: Midcarder Killer. MVP may be next.
Posted By: b2 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 07:40 PM
If this leads to Jericho and Christian reforming the Un-Americans, then all should be well.
Posted By: Guest#5288 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 07:45 PM
I tore my achilles tendon, ripped my pec off my chest and tore a bicep and quad muscle just last week. Look at me, Im jumping around just fine !!
Posted By: Kurt Angle (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 07:49 PM
I hope he returns with the D-Lo chest protector. That gimmick was money!
Posted By: Guest#7633 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 07:52 PM
Get well Christian
Posted By: Dwayne (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 08:00 PM
Get well Captain!!!
Posted By: Iceberg (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 08:05 PM
I really hope that Christian's injury doesn't mean Kofi will be the stepping stone for Del Rio, but unfortunately I don't see anyone else high enough on the roster to be of any use to Del Rio. Hardy and MVP are well below Kofi, Show is probably above him. And surely SOMEONE needs to put Del Rio over, he's supposed to be a big deal real quick. Am I missing any other candidates?
Posted By: RoddyPiper'sBlackHalf (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 08:19 PM
Man this fookin' sucks! Get well soon good captain, hope you make it back in time for the Rumble/Mania buildup
Posted By: Scottish_Dave (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 08:28 PM
Nooooooo! Get well sooner, and come back to win the Rumble!
Posted By: Guest#2693 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 09:07 PM
He doesn't take roids so it will take him longer than Cena's
Posted By: sp1 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 09:09 PM
o damn I love the idea posted above about hosting the Peep Show and having punk hate on him for taking pillies
Posted By: sp1 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 09:15 PM
get well christian c-ya at Wrestle Mania!!
Posted By: jtb (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 10:15 PM
perfect timing from a storyline standpoint though...Del Rio goes over someone else, wins a title or something , and you have a major feud in 6 months
Posted By: guest jc (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 10:32 PM
If this leads to Jericho and Christian reforming the Un-Americans, then all should be well.
Posted By: Guest#5288 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 07:45 PM
Better yet, Vitamin C.
Posted By: SeanTNA (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 10:36 PM
He will be future endeavored before he is ready to return
Posted By: Puff (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 10:57 PM
Does anybody remember another particularly popular mid-carder who went down with an injury after The Basham Brothers hit his knee with the ring steps and he came back just in time to have momentum to win the Money in the Bank match?
O Captain my Captain, I see good things for you.
Posted By: the danger stranger (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 11:31 PM
NOOOOOOO! NOOOOO! N-O-O-O!!!
Posted By: Calculon (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 11:47 PM

Posted By: sp1 (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 09:09 PM
steroids are legal for use in this kind of injury heal.
nice attempt at trolling, but reality took the bite out of it.

"Didn't realize Christian had any muscles.

Says the 400 lb. IWC virgin!
Posted By: Brad B (Guest) on September 24, 2010 at 12:45 AM
OK, down to Punk, Show and Kaval as the only reasons to watch Smackdown and Show is borderline.
Posted By: Guest#6783 (Guest) on September 24, 2010 at 12:53 AM
EDGE ! Get out of Captain Charisma's Body !
And your NEXT WH...Huh sorry IC TITLE CHAMPION IS !
Posted By: Da Peep Show (Guest) on September 24, 2010 at 01:16 AM
he wasn't being used anyway. no loss.
Posted By: SWAM (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 04:55 PM
So a feud with Del Rio, one of Smackdown's fastest rising stars is cut short and it's 'no loss'?
Plus, you selfish asshole, it is a loss to HIM. Losing out on potential money and having to go under the fucking knife for YOUR entertainment. But it's good that that's all you can think about right? Fucking dick.
Posted By: Erik... (Guest) on September 24, 2010 at 02:57 AM
christian was better off in tna... go back plzzzzzzz...... wwe is wasting u like they do most its roster
Posted By: johnny (Guest) on September 24, 2010 at 03:25 AM
Damn, hes easily one of best in the company, hopefully this means he comes back straight into a fued with Del Rio which by then may be a for a world title.
Posted By: jbardo (Guest) on September 24, 2010 at 03:51 AM
if he was still in tna he wouldn't be injured and would still be a main eventer sorry has to be said
Posted By: scooter (Guest) on September 24, 2010 at 05:16 AM

Posted By: Azrael1031 (Registered) on September 24, 2010 at 07:55 AM
Damn that sux hopefully at mania we get Edge or Del Rio vs Christian Cage!
Posted By: HBK29 (Guest) on September 24, 2010 at 10:34 AM
Does anyone know how it happened?

Posted By: Ron Simmons (Guest) on September 24, 2010 at 11:09 AM
Maybe he can get one of those chest plates like D-Lo had...that would be bad ass.
Posted By: El Bubba (Guest) on September 24, 2010 at 11:35 AM
I hope he returns with the D-Lo chest protector. That gimmick was money!

Posted By: Frie (Guest) on September 23, 2010 at 05:00 PM
he recovered so quickly because he used annabolic steroids
take your time christian, come back the natural way
