SmackDown: Kennedy Only Out 6-8 Weeks

by Kris on May 10th, 2007

In a huge sigh of relief WWE and SmackDown superstar Mr. Kennedy will only be out 6-8 weeks according to WWE.com. It was previously believed be may be out 6-8 months. Here is the release from the WWE:

WWE.com has received word that the initial prognosis for Mr. Kennedy’s arm injury was overstated. Based on Kennedy’s extensive MRI at the Birmingham, Ala. offices of Dr. James Andrews, WWE’s Dr. Ferdinand Rios now reports that the SmackDown Superstar’s triceps tendon “was not torn from the bone as originally reported and will not require surgery.”

Due to the severity of Kennedy’s hematoma — a collection of blood within a tissue or organ — he is still not cleared to compete from a medical standpoint.

“He’s still vulnerable to injury and the arm remains badly swollen,” said Dr. Rios. “I’d expect him to be out of action for about six to eight weeks.”

The injury was unfortunate for Kennedy who had to drop his Money in the Bank opportunity because of the severity of the ijury (or so they thought). Turns out it wasn’t so bad but I am sure Kennedy will be worked immediately back into the title race with Edge whenever he returns (assuming Edge is still champion of course).
