The situation is basically that this new doctor uses a completely different method, that is just as good or better, and doesn't require a lot of recovery time, because there's no fusing of vertebrae involved, like what happened to SCSA.

Plus, the process involves less trauma to the neck/spine region, which lessens scar tissue and the need for surgeries in the future. You can be guaranteed Edge and Lita's careers were shortened by getting this done, although Lita's career is probably a lot less wrenching than Edge's is.

Hearing about this surgery reminds me of a story I heard about Kirby Puckett. After Puckett got blasted in the face with the baseball and had to retire, he saw someone wearing a facemask on their batting helmet. He was a color man for ESPN at the time, and he said off-handed, "I wish I knew about that when I was playing. I'd probably still be playing today."

I'm sure Austin feels the same way...
