More Backstage Armageddon News: Victoria, Injuries, Problems
Rey Mysterio was busted open the hard-way at Armageddon while taking CM Punk's GTS. I'm sure we'll hear more tomorrow but it looked like a possible broken nose. Mysterio looked like he was spitting up blood and really beat up as he left. Punk even came over and checked on him after the match.
Victoria was asked about the online report regarding her impending retirement from World Wrestling Entertainment prior to Armageddon. She said she was surprised to hear the report and that there's absolutely no truth to it. However, there have definitely been rumblings on Victoria looking to wind her career down. She is the only one who knows for sure but I'd be willing to bet that she is playing it off to people as just a 'rumor' until she makes the final decision.
The idea with the JBL-Shawn Michaels angle is that they are using Shawn as the character in the movie "The Wrestler."
Goldust was unable to appear at an indy show in Coral Springs, Florida last night because he had to fly into Buffalo for tonight's Armageddon pay-per-view. This was announced at the indy show.
As noted earlier in Dean's report, Lilian Garcia announced CM Punk as one half of the world tag team champions at Armageddon. Michael Cole quickly corrected her on commentary as The Miz and John Morrison defeated Kofi & Punk for the titles in Canada over the weekend. Dean said that when Lilain went and sat back down, one of the production heads came over and they argued back and forth. Lilian shook her head and moved her hands as if to say "I didn't know" or "Nobody told me".
