TNA reported that Jesse Sorensen sustained a fractured C-1 vertebrae (upper neck) and spinal cord edema. He has a tingling sensation in his legs but is unable to move them at this time. Sorensen's spirits are said to be high despite the circumstances.

Shit. C-1 vertebrae connects the spin to the skull. At this point it's pretty irrelevant whether his career's over - you just hope the guy can walk again! :(

yes, yes, indeed. It's good he's alive, and showing the ability to get some movement. But this is pretty much the worst place you can suffer a spinal injury.

I remember reading your original username as "Ang-Mai Alexander", like you were a Chinese immigrant that married some British guy or something.

I remember also coming across NZPWI in 2001 when I was supposed to be doing maths & info-systems assignments at uni, must've just been googling/altavistaing/askjeevesing "wrestling" and "nz" and voila.... NZPWI.

Good times. 10 years, that's craaaaaziness.

What was this great post lost? what happened?


There was some sort of stuff-up with the forums-a wiping of memory I think. I think I went from 15,000 to 2,000 or something like that. Ang and Troy R-F were the biggest losers, Ang had the top post count at that time.

Jason Powell of Prowrestling.net reports that TNA wrestler Jesse Sorensen showed "significant improvement" on Monday after fracturing his C1 vertebrae at TNA's Against All Odds PPV in a match with Zema Ion. As reported earlier, Ion executed a moonsault from the top turnbuckle and had his knee land on the top of Sorensen's head. Sorensen is reportedly getting feeling back in his legs slowly and doctors are expecting him to make a full recovery. TNA President Dixie Carter flew Sorensen's mother to Florida to be with him.

GOOD NEWS!!

Oh, and Sorensen's been discharged from hospital now. Which I hope is good news, rather than a reflection of lack of money and TNA not wanting to foot the bill...

Fuck, Angle is a muppet.

Yeah, I think friends and family might have come through for Jesse 'cos it's highly unlikely TNA will pay his medical bill. Jesse Neal said TNA only paid for his initial MRI after he suffered a neck injury in a match with Hernandez at Sacrifice last year, but refused to cover the rest of the bill, which he's still paying off. Also, Daffney is currently suing TNA for injuries she suffered when creative pressure her into unsafe situations and then refused to pay her medical bill.

If Aussie can't bring the tour here (cancelled due to lack of sales) NZ must be worse.

Why does it need to be summer for them to tour here? And why doesn't he know that it's summer here when it's winter where he comes from?

I think they'd have no problem selling shows here, especially with no WWE show. People would come solely based on Hulk Hogan's name, even if they don't know what a TNA is. I know I would (and will if a show is announced).

God. I'm embarrassed to admit this but I was messaging Bischoff on Twitter years ago (then again its hard to tell if actually them messaging) But he said he's been pushing to come to New Zealand to do a show for years.

Is that sorta the same as (insert band member/vocalist) buying a house at the location of the gig though?

It's also a bit like Hulk Hogan saying anything to a reporter to make sure his promotion of a television show gets headlines...
