Ah holy shit. Prayers for the dude. Fuck cancer.

 

I wonder if Ambrose and Rollins knew before, because they looked really upset. Rollins was crying.

 

Man, fuck cancer.

 

My memory is blanking. Has this happened before?

 

Not unless you count that asshat losing his smile

 

Cancer? Jim Duggan would be closest. But not a linchpin or cornerstone like Roman.

I know the show has to go on, but I'm not really up for listening to Lio's crap. It's not like he just suffered a torn ACL or separated shoulder. This is something that could potentially kill Roman if it becomes aggressive.

 

Got to have Balor win that. Got to do something so the crowd won't be depressed.

 

Zack Ryder and Stevie Richards had cancer too and came back. But obviously, they weren't at Reigns' level.

Duggan's cancer also saw one of the more tasteless angles in WCW when they tried Goldberg as a heel and had him punch Duggan multiple times in the kidney to where Duggan was spitting up blood. Yeah, it was bad.

 

Balor and Rollins gave up the title after suffering injuries. RVD dropped the belt a day or two after his drug arrest. But I can't think of anyone giving up a title because of a deadly illness.

 

How bad will the person who gets the strap will feel that he got it because Roman has Leukimia?

 

OK, to lighten the mood, two Cageside Seats comments. The first said they were worried about the crowd reaction. The second agreed, and worried about a Yes chant.

I have to admit, that would have been utterly bizarre.

 

Gotta be a given that Seth and Dean win the tag belts tonight, particularly with that open and the fracturing of Braun and his dogs.

What happens with the main event at Crown Jewel? Cut it to a two-way? Find someone to put in Roman's spot and keep it a three-way?
