Add John Morrison to WWE's injury list

John Morrison has been battling an ankle injury as of late, pwinsider.com has reported. That would explain why he hasn’t been on Raw the past two weeks.

The severity of the injury and how long he may be out of action are not known at this time.

Morrison joins Randy Orton (separated shoulder) and Ted DiBiase Jr. (concussion) on Raw’s injured list.

It's been kinda of eerie the last couple weeks the way these injuries have been popping up.

I've mentioned before that I'm a performer myself but I'm also pursuing a career in physical therapy and injury prevention - so the Over The Limit PPV was actually one of the most interesting for me personally - to see how these performers improvise around different levels of injury.

I also find it interesting the crack in the veneer that shows when people who are judged on their ability to pretend to look injured all the time when they aren't - suddenly have to pretend NOT to look injured when they are. Or in Randy Orton's case, to cover up a real injury by...acting like he's injured...

Anyway - I'm sorry to see John Morrison put on the bench - ankles are tricky things. I hope he takes advantage of some time off to do some good rehab. And I hope that when he returns he gets to do a solid program with someone like Jericho or Miz.

Damn it, just when I thought, Morrison could fill the space of the injured Orton.

Kevin,

Why are more and more wrestlers getting injured in the WWE? The hardcore matches and chair shots/spots have gone down - but injuries are up?

i love you

Tomorrow we will see again the Starship Pain!! =D

I hope John Morrison rests his ankle properly but know that he is sorely missed.
