Jim Ross Talks About Seeing John Cena At Tuesday's SmackDown/ECW Taping
Written by Ryan Gray on Aug 28, 2008 - 11:15:03 AM
Jim Ross has posted a new blog on his official website where he talks about hanging out with John Cena at Tuesday night's SmackDown/ECW taping in Pittsburgh. Below is a summary:
Late Tuesday afternoon/early evening I am sitting in a make shift catering area in the old Mellon Arena in Pittsburgh going over my notes for Friday Night Smackdown that was to be taped in a few minutes. The catering area was essentially a ghost town as the ECW taping was in progress and others were getting ready for SD. I needed a quiet place to re-write my announcer notes and catering was it. Then came a tap on my shoulder. I turned to see who it was and low and behold it was John Cena....fresh out of surgery.
I was shocked to see John, who had just had neck surgery earlier in the day, up and around much less dropping by the ancient Igloo to simply say hello to "the boys." As I understand it, a disc in Cena's neck herniated and a fragment stuck into his spinal cord causing obvious discomfort and numbness down his right arm and into his hand. Dr. Joseph Maroon, a renowned Neurosurgeon and Professor of Neurosurgery at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and the team neurosurgeon for the Pittsburgh Steelers expertly handled the Cena's repair. This was a procedure that Dr. Maroon called an "emergency surgery."
