Is HBK’s concussion legit or storyline?
There wasn’t much in the way of entertainment value to be gained from watching HBK’s concussion and attempt to wrestle through it on last weekend’s Judgment Day PPV. While it’s clear Shawn Michaels needs some kind of break from the biz, perhaps even a Kissimmee vacation, what’s not clear is whether the concussion is legit, or whether it’s a storyline excuse to give the aging superstar some time off from the WWE grind.
Right now, I’d have to guess it’s legit, if only because the match seemed pointless to the point of squeamishness. If it was only a storyline concussion to give HBK a few months off, the whole thing could have been way more entertaining in how it played out.
Either way, the result is a non-match that gets Randy Orton back over as a hardcore heel, a “legend killer,” as he prefers to be known in the storyline and the ring. With Edge moving over to SmackDown, and both Triple H and HBK out of action for the foreseeable future, Orton definitely needs to step up his game and become the top storyline heel for Raw … aside, of course, from Khali, who should be feuding with John Cena though SummerSlam, at least.
