More Injury Updates Coming Out of Money in the Bank: Punk & RVD Require Staples, Updates on Rhodes & Sheamus

July 15, 2013

As we reported last night, CM Punk posted several photos of the injury he suffered during the main event of Money in the Bank, and he noted that staples were needed to close the wound.

According to WWE.com, Rob Van Dam also required staples to close the cut he received during the ladder match, and although nothing has been said about Cody Rhodes requiring staples/stitches, he too was visibly busted open during his MITB ladder match.

WWE has not provided an injury update on Sheamus, who appeared to have taken some stiff shots during the main event, but he did joke on Twitter that "the reports of [his] demise have been greatly exaggerated."

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
