Look at all the other guys who had neck injurys
Austin - 10 Months off
Benoit - 11 Months off
Edge - 13 Months off
Gregory Helms - Still out
If the Injury is not that serious then I agree with you.

From what I get from Cena's, it doesn't look to be even close in seriousness to Austin, Benoit and Edge's.

1) If you read below that part of the post there was this J/K signifying just kidding.

2) I dislike Cena but that doesn't mean I wish injury upon him. It's a double edge sword. On one hand I don't wish injury upon him but on the other hand, he'll be gone and with me disliking him and finding him utterly annoying, it's a great thing for him to be gone for awhile.

3) Just because hes' a top worker in the WWE doesn't mean I have to like him. He can sell all the merchandise in the world but that doesn't mean I should like him just because WWE force feeds him to me. Simple, I vomit on the person who's feeding me, WWE and spew the chunks back on them.

I hope Cena quits while he can... I hate him, but all us know that it will be like his shoulder injury.

He was supposed to be out from Mania, but he returned at the rumble.

Ouch that sucks, I liked how he was being used on Raw lately. Hopefully it's less serious than they think. Wish him a speedy recovery..big blow to Raw.

According to wwe.com, Cena has a herniated disk.

Sorry if this was posted, I don't think it was though.

Three-time WWE Champion John Cena will be out of action indefinitely with a herniated disk in his neck. Requiring surgery, this injury is the result of several Batista Bombs delivered by The Animal at SummerSlam.

According to WWE’s Dr. Chris Amann, who reviewed the MRI results with Cena, the injury sustained by the Chain Gang Commander was considerably worse than originally thought with large disk herniation.

“It needs to be dealt with because I lost most of the feeling in my right arm and am having pain in my shoulder,” Cena told WWE.com. “I’m losing 20 percent of my strength per day. If I don’t do anything about it, the injury will end up rupturing and then the surgery will be more difficult. It’s not easy, because surgery never is.”

Last year, Cena missed considerable time when he tore his pectoral muscle after receiving an RKO by Randy Orton on an announce table. He later made a remarkable return to the ring months ahead of schedule at the Royal Rumble this past January.

“It’s a different injury than the pectoral tear because that was more of a muscle injury; this is concerning my bones, which has a lot less blood flow than muscle tissue. It also has to do with my neck, which is a very fragile area,” Cena described.

“Every moment I stay away from the table is another moment something bad can happen. The disk is so bulged out and inflamed that any sudden move could make it worse.”

But when it comes to the Chain Gang Commander, the pain associated with this type of injury is perhaps second only to the anguish of being forced away from sports-entertainment – his home. Still, Cena recognizes what he needs to do, even if it means stepping away from the ring for some time.

“You can either do one or two things: You can be upset or pout or you can know what to do to get better,” Cena said. “I’m already in the mode of getting the surgery as quick as I can.”

He continued, “In the last ten months, I’ve really focused on functional strength training and I’m stronger than I’ve ever been. My goal is to talk to the neurosurgeon about how quickly I can get back to full-throttle training and getting back into the ring. And that’s the ultimate goal – to be strong as I can and get back into the ring as soon as possible.”

Cena is scheduled to see doctors on Tuesday morning with neurosurgeon Dr. Joseph Maroon at the University of Pittsburgh. Be sure to check back with WWE.com for updates on the condition of the Chain Gang Commander and his imminent surgery.

Too many injuries plauging the E nowadays. Hope Cena a speedy recovery... Just not too speedy.
