<table><tr><td>Orton Injured, Out Of Elimination Chamber
Randy Orton was reportedly injured in his match against The Big Show at Monday's RAW Supershow from San Diego, California. Word is that Orton won't be able to compete in Sunday's Elimination Chamber match for the World Heavyweight Title.
No details are available yet but it looks like Orton will be replaced by Mark Henry, who is being brought back early from injury due to lack of depth on the roster. More shortly...
--- Update: WWE.com has confirmed that Randy Orton suffered a concussion last night at the RAW Supershow after being hit in the head with the World Championship Belt by Daniel Bryan. The report also confirmed that Orton will not be cleared to compete at this Sunday's Elimination Chamber PPV.
"Randy sustained head trauma following his match with Big Show, in which Daniel Bryan interfered, and he was evaluated in the training room immediately afterward," WWE physician Dr. Michael Sampson told WWE.com. "Due to his symptoms as well as his neurological evaluation, he was diagnosed with a concussion. We will be doing more testing to see how he's going to do as far as short term vs. long term."
WWE has yet to officially announce a replacement for Orton, although it is believed that Mark Henry will take his place in the match.</td><td>
The Snake Guy</td></tr></table><table><tr><td>TDK's Take:
Henry being brought back early due to 'lack of depth on the roster'? Wow! Don't even get me started on how irresponsible that is... What I really want to rant on is just whose fault is it there's a lack of depth on the roster? Maybe if Zach Ryder wasn't out with a 'broken' back they wouldn't have this problem. Oh but wait, that had to happen so Cena had a credible opponent.
Once again WWE's incredible short sightedness - in refusing to build secondary stars and sucking all the mid carders into the Cena vortex - has arisen to bite them in the ass. Hell of a way to run a company if you ask me...</td></tr></table>
