Update on WWE star John Morrison’s injury status
When it was revealed Monday that John Morrison was undergoing neck surgery, the assumption was that he was going to be sidelined for quite a while.
It turns out that Morrison had a minimally invasive procedure performed on him and will be back much sooner than later.
“Unlike other procedures, such as those undergone by John Cena and Edge, the typical recovery time is four to six weeks,” Dr. Christopher Amann, WWE’s senior ringside physician, told wwe.com.
According to the wwe.com report, renowned neurosurgeon Dr. Joseph Maroon created a small incision in the back of Morrison’s neck and removed a bone spur and a small fragment of the C5-C6 disc from around the nerve root. Morrison said that he noticed immediate improvement in strength and decreased numbness in his arm.

Holy crap! He was moving like that with a bone spur in his neck and a bone fragment lodged in his c5-c6 disc? I'm amazed he could move his neck at all
