Cole just said that he is talking and has movement in all his extremities. Thank Christ

It was messed up.  Enzo didn't look unconscious but was not moving.  Thank god and modern medicine.

That was such an awkward spot. Was he trying to baseball slide out of the ring or did Gotch try to throw him out? It just didn't make sense.

Gotch was trying to throw him out but they started too close to the ropes so Enzo couldn't get his head under in time.

I think he was trying to go through the ropes, was going to dive between the lower and middle ropes, but decided on a baseball slide at the last second.

I thought of Perro Aguayo Jr. as most of you did here. Glad that he's moving and talking. 

I was a bit shook for the first few minutes of Owens/Zayn because of that. 

BTW - PWI had a report up briefly that claimed Enzo received CPR.

They edited it to say otherwise without noting that the original story was edited

I really think the ref should've done a better job of protecting Enzo after the injury.  No way Gotch should've been allowed to move his neck like he did.

Kalisto vs. Ryback for the US Title - which clearly has to be a Ryback win or they might as well just release him on the spot

Umm.........

Cole update on Enzo

Nothing really changed since earlier - just he is undergoing tests, that he can move his arms and legs and that he is "communicate" with doctors

Normally we would wait but this is kinda bigger than that

Enzo Amore just got legit seriously injured very early in the tag match. (Match thrown out. Stretcher. etc...)

If one tends to be a little on the skittish side - I would suggest not seeking out the gif

Thanks for the warning. I'm only just starting the show now and Enzo being injured is not something I want to see.

Alvarez RT'ed something from a fan at ringside who said he was receiving oxygen while being treated. I wonder if that's where the CPR confusion stemmed from. As shook as the announcers were, I'd imagine they would be 10x worse if they were watching a guy receive CPR right in front of them.

In Meltzer's show recap - he said Enzo was unconscious until he got to the back so receiving oxygen would definitely make sense.

If he's okay and recovers, in the old days they'd turn that into hell of an angle, that will obviously not be happening regardless.

who's to say they won't?

 

This is a new era! Maybe the new era will learn from their past and how to catch lightning in a bottle.

In the old days, if Enzo was crippled or killed they'da still done an angle where Cass chased the Vaudevillains to avenge his partner...

So what should they have done then, have the Vaudevillians attack Cass as he's standing outside of the ambulance, watching it pull away because he's too big to fit in the back? Then tell Renee they took "both of the sawfties out. Jolly well, good show," and walk back to catering?

That would be an incredibly hot angle to have Cass come out tomorrow night and run them down.

I thought that too. It seemed immediately obvious to me that he was out of it. He just had that blank, glazed over look, so I was surprised that the ref stepped away from him for a few seconds.

Watching the replay, and you can definitely see Enzo snoring after the spot.

 

WWE.com says he has been discharged from the hospital. Not keeping him overnight for observation = great thing.

I'd say this is an even better thing...

The lesson: Kevin Owens made everywhere he was tonight a better place.

I enjoyed this one, too!
 

 

Maybe his skull is lined with titanium.

While getting a concussion is never a good thing, the silver lining is that this should get them even more over.
