NO SURGERY FOR BIG E

Former WWE Champion Big E posted an update this morning on his broken neck, noting he was told that thankfully there was no damage to his spinal cord and that he will not need surgery:

The word making the rounds among talents last night that surgery would not be required and thankfully that is correct.

There were fractures to two vertebrae, the C-1 and the C-6 so he will be out for some time in order to recover. 

The complete transcript of Big E's latest video message:

"So, I got some really good news, all things considered.  The C-1 and C-6 are indeed fractured.  Not a displacement though, which is a very good thing..and I don't have any damage to my spinal cord.  No ligament damage, and no surgery, which I'm very thankful for....and, pro-tip, if you're going to break your neck, do it in Birmingham.  They've been great.  Everyone here at UAB has been great.  But, for real, it's meant a ton to me that so many of you have been so kind and reached out, stopped in to see me, texted me.  I feel like I sound like a broken record, but I am very grateful and I'm gonna be all right.   It's a blessing."
