Edge suffers House Show Injury

News has been reported that Smackdown superstar Edge, suffered a serious injury during a main event match against Jeff Hardy last night. The injury came at a WWE Smackdown!/ECW House show in San Diego, CA Friday night. Apparently about five minutes into the match, Edge planed his foot wrong and landed badly. He immediately was down and required help from EMT's to leave the ring. He apologized to the fans in attendance as he was unable to continue the match. The injury is being reported as a torn Achilles tendon, which will likely require surgery and a good deal of rehab time away from the ring.

As you know, Edge is currently one half of the Unified Tag Team champions along with Chris Jericho, but with this injury the WWE is looking for a way to move the belts to a different duo. It's been speculated that they will try to move the belts to Legacy members Dibiase and Rhodes, and that they are reviewing footage from their taping for next week's Smackdown, already taped in Bakersfield, CA, to try to explain Edge's injury.
