WWE: Raw and Smackdown Part 5 the Paul Levesque Era

That sucks for Zoey. Couldn't put any weight on it.

seemed her leg twisted outwards or something, very unfortunate yeah

someone comes back from injury, someone goes out with one

 

[SlyDawg]

Good lord, that looked legit bad. You just see the end of the jump and it just looks awful and the snap of the knee. Damn shame for Zoey. Both Rhea and Kairi had no real idea what to do there. Had to reset it all.

Fingers crossed it just looked bad and isn't as bad as it seems. Yikes.

 

[Jussi]

Crazy counter from Rhea for the cross body.

Also, really great crowd, those applauses for Zoey...

If it was Zoey's left knee, that knee doesn't have meniscus anymore after the previous injury in 2021.

So, I was climbing up a ladder and Persia (Steph De Lander) pushed the ladder and I was supposed to jump from the ladder to then springboard and then dive on a group of girls. So all of that happened but I made the mistake of landing on my feet and when that happened, my knee blew out. I tore my ACL, MCL, PCL, the whole thing. I really don’t even have the meniscus anymore in my left knee.

The injury happened in late 2021 and she returned in summer 2022. It's why she prefers to wear a brace on her knee.

Definitely looked like she tore part of the knee. Pretty sure it's never 100% recoverable either so just a jarring landing like that would do it.

Best recovery to her. She had to see her entire team get released. This was a good shot to show her stuff without Shayna and Sonia being there to cover some things up. And now she's on the shelf too.

 

[SlyDawg]

So, story time:

I haven't watched wrestling for over 15 years. Stopped when Stone Cold basically called it quits.

Came back during Royal Rumble 2024 and watched this whole time.

My goodness, just watching Jey doing his thing is just fun to watch. Might not be the best technical wrestler but he definitely can get a crowd popping.

Yeet.

Her last injury also happened when she was getting a push in NXT and looked like she might have been on one now. She was such a physical freak back then, only Bianca matched her for that combination of physique and athleticism. I'm not sure if she ever did the 450 Splash after the first injury.

Makes 100% sense she wouldn't do something that would push that knee. With that statement, it probably never fully recovered and it was just hanging around with the bumps she's taken since. Just a real unfortunate turn of events.

I'll say this, the Women's division has exploded since the early 2000s. I'm more and more impressed by the ladies carrying the load properly like they could. Great to see.

And we're still waiting for Asuka to return, probably during the summer. Plus there's a few people at NXT close to a call up. If not later this year, then by the Rumble. If you already haven't done so, I recommend watching NXT tomorrow.

oof i winced

 

[Jussi]

Just saw a clip of Zoey's injury, she was holding her right knee.



Oh yeah, a knee is not supposed to bend that way.

 

[Jussi]

Pops for Sami and Punk. They're singing Punk's theme! Do more shows in this town, awesome crowd!

 

[SlyDawg]

Paul got the hit in and the typical "whoever gets the shot in before the main event loses" is complete. Jey's gonna keep that one.

Fun show. Incredibly disheartening to see Zoey go down like that.

So sad She'll be out for a long time. Maybe a career ender.

 

[GKJ]

That’s an oof on the injury. Not really sure what happened on the spot.

 

[Sheppy]

I’m guessing Zoey completely blew her knee apart. That was absolutely brutal to see.

 

[FriendlyGhost92]

They really could've muted the ring mics for Zoey's injury... Those screams hurt me.

Yeah, it was tough to listen to. Can't imagine it was easy for Rhea and Kairi to continue after that. The ref had to give them instructions on how to finish the match. Zoey getting pinned might have been the original plan.
