Edge Calling it Quits

[The Fallen Angel]

Adam Copeland (edge) was injured at a house show in San Diego over the weekend while facing jeff hardy. Edge was running towards Hardy for a clothesline and twisted and snapped his ankle and completly ruptured his achilles tendon.

It is believe that this injury would keep edge out of action for the better part of two years, but the talk now is that edge will forgo the rest of his contract and hang up the boots for good. He is getting older now and has been with the wwe over a decade and he feels it may be time to hang it up after this

Good heavens. Two years for an ankle injury?

I see nothing about Edge calling it quits. It is said that the same injury has ended careers, but nowhere have I seen that he's contemplating retirement. Plus, it says he could be out until March of 2010, which is 8 months down the line. I hope he's able to come back from this injury. If not, that would be a huge loss to the industry.

I was looking forward to seeing he and Jericho as champs for a little while longer. I hope he can make it back in time to have a match at WrestleMania.

I see a possible new GM in the future, or as an announcer.

Keep him around messing with people until Wrestlemania where he will make a big comeback and win a title.

Best to you Edge, on a speedy recovery.

Can't be that bad, his rocking the unifined tag titles with Jericho and they're both going to night of champions to face Rhodes and Dibiase, unless RAW isnt as live as they claim to be.

This weeks raw was taped last week, there is no way they could have set up an angle for raw when it was taped last monday before he was injured

All you guys who are like "its not that bad", "cant be that bad'. Having your achilles tendon ripped is very bad. Thats the muscle that helps you run,walk,stand,etc. Its very bad.

Yes, I know. I'm a former Army combat medical specialist. But in general an Achilles tear takes about 12 months to rehab. Maybe a couple of months longer if it's very serious. So I'm surprised to hear people talking about up to 24 months in this case.
