Jerry Lynn out of TNA HardCORE Justice main event due to back injury

by David Bixenspan on Aug 7, 2010 4:29 PM EDT in TNA

According to Jason Powell at ProWrestling.net, Jerry Lynn has injured his back and pulled out of tomorrow night's PPV main event against Rob Van Dam as well as his weekend indy booking. TNA learned of the cancellation within the last day and as of this posting, they haven't made any announcements about it. No word yet as to the new main event. Powell doesn't think that Sabu as a replacement (in a perfect world the best sub on paper) is a good idea since he's pretty wrecked these days. 2 Cold Scorpio is believed to be working the show and could fit in well for the type of main event they were hoping for.

Fitting, given the lousy, almost non-existent hype to Jerry Lynn’s main event appearance. I imagine that Raven vs. Tommy Dreamer may now go on last, given that’s now the only match that has been announced and got any hype.

That is a huge blow to the show.

That was probably the only match that could deliver big time in the ring. Now they’re probably going to up the chairshots and table spots. They could offer the Franchise more money than the 500-1000 they offered everyone else to bash their brains in for old times.

Franchise vs. RVD could be interesting.

Freedom is a road seldom traveled by the multitudes...

Franchise is so out of shape now

do you really want to see him out there tomorrow.

I think I predicted this in another post. Jerry Lynn has always been brittle. Franchise is so fat and bloated now (unless he recently lost weight) that I don’t want to see him anywhere but a treadmill.

This show is going to be terrible, it was destined to suck before this injury even.
