SD Star Breaks Ankle On Last Nights Taping

It was reported that on last nights Smackdown taping, John Morrison appeared to have a legit injury to his ankle in his match with R-Truth. The match ended about a minute in but the referee never gave the "X" sign like normal when a wrestler seems to have suffered some sort of injury.

It was thought to be a sprain but the day after the taping (Wednesday), John Morrison posted this message on his twitter:

"My ankle is broken in three places, but im just going to walk it off-on the flight to Quito"

Details are not yet known on how serious the injury is or if it is severe enough to keep him out of the Elimination Chamber in two weeks or not.

   @Red Unit
   
   By the way you said it, you basically said WWE injured Morrison on purpose.
   
   :P

   @Ren Ten Jones: It's a conspiracy! Well probably not.
   
   Well it's possible Morrison could wrestle with his ankle in a cast, but I don't know if he would still be able to perform like that.
   I suppose this could be a chance for Batista or HBK to enter, but some people have speculated Batista is going to take out Cena and take his spot in the raw Elimination Chamber (With Cena showing up to prevent Batista from winning of course, setting them up for wrestlemania)
   .
   So who knows, maybe they'll put in someone else like Kane.

   It is fake. He got injured so Shawn Michaels can be in the Chamber.

    WWE's been burying Matt Hardy Pretty hard, he hasn't won a match in quite some time, and he lasted like 10 seconds in the Rumble. I'm guessing they're making him a jobber because they figure he might leave for TNA like his brother.

    Pretty bad.. just now that WWE was going to turn him heel, and maybe pushing him as well.

    If his ankle is broken, then why is he heading for the Smackdown/ECW house show in Quito, Ecuador?

    I've broke my ankle twice and the recovery takes at least a month and you still can't run or do any activities other than walking

    Morrison will wrestle in the chamber with a brokin ankle. Just like the Untaker did in the 1998(I think) King Of The Ring against Mankind.

    this is how they will backdoor hbk into the smackdown chamber match, batista wont be in it because he's involved in the bret-vince angle with cena, and just a prediction of mine, either at wrestlemania, there will be Bret vs Vince and Cena vs Batista, or Vince and Batista vs Bret and Cena, with the latter probably being the logical one since hart probably cant take any serious bumps

    wat is wrong wit u matt hardy fans he sucks! he won his little ecw title once an that was it. the creative team obviously thinks (as well as the fans) he's not main event material like his brother and he had his time to shine wen he won the ecw title and failed. he wont be in the spotlight bcuz he cant get past midcard status. this all sounds totally mean an i dont hate matt but this is basically why he's as much a success as others

    I'm not a huge Matt Hardy fan, but I like him better then Jeff. I don't really think its fair how he's not World Champion, while his brother gets to be. I mean, hell, make him a champion and then make him lose it to whoever has Money in the Bank, as long as he can be called a former World Champion.

    Well if Morrison can't compete then will Shawn Michaels get traded to SD and get in the chamber some how?
