Melina Posts Injury Update On John Morrison Posted by Steve Carrier on 05/14/2011 at 03:07 PM
Melina posted a blog on her official website, RealMelina.com, updating fans on John Morrison after he underwent surgery to correct a pinched nerve in his neck.
"The first week after surgery is the most painful," she wrote. "He hates not helping out and carrying his own weight. He stubbornly tries to do little things and I understand that I can't baby him but I worry. I want to do everything for him so he can just rest.
"I have taken him on mini walks so he can get out of the house he can't stay out for very long because he starts to ache. I wish I could do more. During the day he has to sit, but he cant sit for long because his neck starts to hurt then he can't stand for too long either because the same thing happens. His body gets tired because its hard for him to rest. At night he wakes up every few hours and gets out of bed because his neck is sore. For some reason he thinks I sleep through him bumping into stuff in the dark, on his way to the kitchen. He says coconut gelato is the only thing that makes his neck feel better at 5am. Bless his heart."
She continued, "I hate to see him in pain. He wont tell me a lot of the times but you can just see it. It breaks my heart because hes my Honey, but he always tries to smile. I admire him for being so positive, being strong and making me laugh. I wouldnt blame him if he just vegged and sulked a bit but instead he keeps his chin up and Smiles even if it hurts."
UPDATE: On Saturday night, Karen Jarrett posted the following photo of her injured ankle via her Twitter account with the message "My poor ankle!!!". For more on this breaking news, visit IMPACTwrestling.com
News: Karen Jarrett Claims Injury After Fall, Status For Sunday's PPV Uncertain
On Friday afternoon, Karen Jarrett claimed via her Twitter account that she had suffered a "bad fall" and was having trouble walking. Then, on Saturday, Karen posted that "Due to my fall, not sure I will be up to having a match on Sunday at the PPV".
On Sunday night at the Sacrifice Pay-Per-View event, The Jarretts are scheduled to compete in a mixed-tag team match against Kurt Angle and Chyna, who makes her in-ring wrestling return. Kurt hopes to get final revenge against his longtime enemy in Jeff Jarrett, and he also brought in Chyna to battle his former wife Karen.
TNA officials have stated that they are still trying to gather information about Karen's fall, and as of Saturday afternoon she is still being promoted for the match. Her travel itinerary to Orlando for the PPV has not yet been changed.
You can read her Twitter posts below:
(Friday morning) karenjarrett: Can't stop thinking about Sunday's PPV...UGH...going shopping...always makes me feel better!
(Friday afternoon) karenjarrett: Had a bad fall today!!! :( can't hardly walk!!!
(Saturday afternoon) karenjarrett: Due to my fall, not sure I will be up to having a match on Sunday at the PPV....
We have been unable to get in contact with Karen to determine the extent of her injury, or how it occurred. Jeff Jarrett has been traveling with this weekend's TNA Live Events, and instead of commenting on her injury, he blasted Kurt Angle via his Twitter for putting Karen - the mother of Angle's children - in harm's way:
JeffJarrettTNA: People continue to make conscious, yet very reckless, decisions about people's future, but they have no regard for the consequences of them.

Sin Cara def. Daniel Bryan Kane def. Intercontinental Champion Wade Barrett by Disqualification Cody Rhodes def. Ted DiBiase World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton & Christian def. Sheamus & Mark Henry SmackDown results: Onward Christian soldier By: Michael Burdick May 13, 2011 Tags: SmackDown: May 13, 2011
NASHVILLE, Tennessee One week after losing the World Heavyweight Championship in a hard-fought battle against Randy Orton, Christian aligned himself with the new champion to overcome Mark Henry and Sheamus. However, while the SmackDown elite momentarily shared the cup of glory, anticipation over their epic rematch at WWE Over the Limit was already building to a fever pitch. (Preview)
World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton & Christian def. Sheamus & Mark Henry (WATCH | PHOTOS) On the same night that the World Heavyweight Championship rematch between Randy Orton and Christian at WWE Over the Limit was announced, the two Superstars found themselves working together in an explosive tag team main event. And as The Viper delivered a devastating RKO to Mark Henry, Captain Charisma hit the Killswitch on Sheamus for the victory.
Intercontinental Champion Wade Barrett challenged Ezekiel Jackson to a match at WWE Over the Limit (WATCH) After The Corres massive assault on Ezekiel Jackson for the second week in a row, Wade Barrett poked his stick at the self-professed "The Personification of Domination" with an Intercontinental Title challenge. Cody Rhodes def. Ted DiBiase (WATCH | PHOTOS) Carrying the burden of his deep emotional scars, Cody Rhodes urged the WWE Universe and even his former Legacy ally Ted DiBiase to hide their faces with paper bags. Despite an ultra-competitive effort by the priceless Superstar, his bitter opponent ultimately reigned supreme with the Cross Rhodes.
Jinder Mahal slapped The Great Khali (WATCH | PHOTOS) Newcomer Jinder Mahal interrupted "The Khali Kiss Cam," stunning the WWE Universe by slapping The Punjabi Nightmare twice before walking away. Kane def. Intercontinental Champion Wade Barrett by Disqualification (WATCH | PHOTOS) Just when it looked as if Kane had overcome distractions by The Corre and was set to chokeslam Intercontinental Champion Wade Barrett, Justin Gabriel and Heath Slater attacked. After giving The Big Red Monster the win by disqualification, his adversaries used their overwhelming numbers to take him down.
Moments later one week after getting forcefully "excommunicated" from The Corre Ezekiel Jackson exploded to the ring, delivering a major onslaught on his former allies before once again succumbing to their 3-on-1 assault. The punishment he endured culminated with Gabriel's 450 Splash.
Michael Cole fed an injured Layla to Kharma (WATCH | PHOTOS) Layla informed the WWE Universe that during her match with Michelle McCool at Extreme Rules, she sustained a serious knee injury.
Following Michael Cole's interruption which he used to talk about his rematch with Jerry Lawler at WWE Over the Limit the mesmerizing Kharma emerged. Cole proceeded to trip Layla, allowing the monstrous anti-Diva to drive her to the canvas with absolute force. When Kharma focused her attention to the cocky announcer-turned-competitor, however, Cole quickly scrambled back to the safety of his glass fortress. Sin Cara def. Daniel Bryan (WATCH | PHOTOS) Before Sin Cara's match with Daniel Bryan could begin, Chavo Guerrero took it upon himself to introduce the newly-drafted masked Superstar as "following in his footsteps." Joining the SmackDown announce team, he repeatedly referred to himself Sin Cara's "mentor."
But, after the high-flyer realized that his win over Bryan came at least in part because of a Guerrero distraction, a frustrated Sin Cara confronted the self-proclaimed "Mexican Warrior." After Guerrero stuck his finger in his chest, the explosive grappler shoved him to the canvas.
Christian geared up to face World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton (WATCH | PHOTOS) One week after his career-long dream of being the World Heavyweight Champion was destroyed by a sudden title match with Randy Orton, Christian emerged. He stated to the WWE Universe that he respected GM Theodore Long's decision to make their World Title Match, congratulated WWE's Apex Predator on winning the title and made it clear that that their rematch at WWE Over the Limit will have a completely different outcome.
When Sheamus and Mark Henry both emerged and attacked Captain Charisma, Orton entered to even the odds, later stating that he wanted to face a 100 percent Christian at the fateful pay-per-view in nine days.
- The Sin Cara vs. Chavo Guerrero matches at WWE live events have been getting rave reviews internally. It was noted that Cara works well with Guerrero and that Chavo "is still an asset" when not being used in comedic roles.
- Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder reunited on last night's episode of WWE Superstars. Hawkins came out and helped Ryder get a win over Vladimir Kozlov. After the win, the former Major Brothers, celebrated together. They wrote the following on Twitter:
Ryder: "The Broskis Are Back @TheCurtHawkins & @ZackRyder WWWYKI"
Hawkins: "Thanks for the support, it's just the beginning & we'll need all your help. I like #MajorBroskis but Broskis of Destruction made me laugh."
Kurt Angle on TNA Being Perceived as WWE-Lite Posted by Steve Carrier on 05/13/2011 at 08:05 PM
Recap of Kurt Angle's appearance on the Busted Open satellite radio show on Sirius 92 and XM 207.
On the name change to Impact Wrestling. Is TNA gone?: Gone, yeah. Impact Wrestling is the new name of the company. I personally believe in it because when it comes down to it, you cant take the word wrestling out of pro wrestling. Any storyline, or any feud...when you do that, its entertainment and youre doing the storylines, but where does it ultimately end up? In the wrestling ring. At the PPV, the payoff. So how can you take wrestling out of pro wrestling .you cant. Thats what they (the fans) buy tickets for. They buy tickets to watch guys wrestle. Not to be actors and entertain us. They pay to watch great wrestling."
When followed up with the point that Vince McMahon might disagree with Angles opinion: "Hey, you know what, its a boost for us. If he wants to go that way, well go the other way."
On Hulk Hogan and the perception that TNA has become WWE-lite: Yes, I believe when we brought in Hulk Hogan, and I will say this from the bottom of my heart, I love Hulk Hogan. He is a great addition to our company. But he too realizes that it cant be 'total nonstop talk'. We have a lot of characters on the show that dont wrestle. Some that wrestle every once in awhile, but really ultimately youre talking about Dixie Carter being on the show sometimes. You got Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff, Ric Flair, Mick Foley. I mean Im just naming a few that dont wrestle and theyre on the show all the time. You start seeing a little too much talking and not enough wrestling. We are now in the process of going to more wrestling.
"Beer Money matches with Motor City Machine Guns. You couldnt beat that. My matches with A.J. Styles... you cant beat that. Those are the kinds of things Ive talked to Dixie Carter personally about. I said I would rather give the fans great matches on TV, incredible five stars matches, right now, even if our pay-per-views suffer. I rather do that now and get our ratings up, and then work on our pay-per-views, then try to get pay-per-views now and have our ratings stay down. Its better to have wrestling on the shows because its different. Its not like the other company.
On Chynas debut: She looked good. She looked healthy too. You know what, even though we only had 1,400 people there, the response that just came from those fans sent a big message to Hulk Hogan and Dixie Carter, and myself as well, that Chyna will always be a huge name. It was cool because when they introduced her people were like holy, no way. Chyna. Shes coming. Oh my God, and then she came out and she looked good. It was like, she is back. It was one of the feel-good moments for Impact Wrestling.
"I mean, Chyna is going to cause a ruckus in Impact Wrestling. I hope they have her wrestle the guys. Impact Wrestling is very pro-women as far as women wresting women. I remember when Awesome Kong (Kharma) came in and I told Jeff Jarrett I want to wrestle her right now. Let me put me over. Hes like no, shes going with women. I believe Chyna should go with the guys eventually."

Below are the complete taping result for the May 12th edition of TNA Impact:
The Jarretts come out and offer a truce to Kurt Angle as Jeff doesn't want her to be put in harm's way at the Sacrifice PPV on Sunday. The crowd is chanting for Angle. Karen says that Kurt's been hurt too many times and now that's made him believe that she's out to get him. She says they have a restraining order out for his own well being and asks Angle to come out. Kurt comes out and says he can't believe he stayed married to her. Angle announces a mixed tag match between himself & "his business partner" against the Jarretts for the PPV. He says that Jarrett knows who she is and she's real, damn real.
*Mickie James & Miss Tessmacher defeated Madison Rayne & Tara.
*Beer Money cut a promo and pretty much intimate that they are waiting for Matt Hardy to call Jeff Hardy to face them at Sacrifice without using Jeff's name. Matt comes out and says they showed guts when they dared call out Hulk Hogan, but they still make him sick and are worthless. Matt says he and Jeff Hardy were raised to be champions and he and his partner are going to take the belts at Sacrifice. But, his partner isn't Jeff Hardy. Out comes, I swear to God, Chris Harris. It's Harris and Hardy vs. Beer Money.
*Sangriento pinned Suicide.
*Eric Bischoff, Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair come out immediately after the match. Flair kicks Suicide low. Hogan says that he runs the show and he's tired of waiting. He wants to know who is running games for the network right now or else. Out comes Mick Foley. Foley said that Hulk may have conned his way into the company and they might think that they were the smartest men in wrestling, but now things are going to start to unravel. He said that on 3/3, Jeff Hardy was the champ but then the Network saw what what happening and brought Sting back to TNA and now he's the champion. Foley said that Hogan won't be able to ruin this show and more because this show is called "Impact Wrestling" because it's supposed to be about wrestling. He announces a Battle Royal to determine the number one contender to the TNA title and then says he'd like to introduce Kurt Angle's partner at Sacrifice. A video appears, eventually spelling the word Chyna and she comes out on the stage with Foley. She got, seriously, a MONSTER pop. Everyone chanted her name.
*Crimson defeated Abyss and Samoa Joe. Abyss attacked Crimson and left him laying.
*Mr. Anderson wins the Battle Royal. Chyna ran out and tossed out Jarrett. She went after Karen but Jeff saved her and they ran away. Dreamer got tossed by Bully Ray even though they are now partners. Steiner and Morgan eliminated each other. Hardy and Beer Money eliminated each other. In the end, Anderson tossed Ray out.
