Andrews was in really bad shape after his match, hell it was a miracle he was able to walk down to the ring and deliver the Andrews Effect on Taufik. Going into Andrews' match last week he had a minor injury to his leg that got worse during training, that was made worse still when he was forced to tap to a sharpshooter following an elbow by Shaun Cross. Yet he still had a match next week, well no one can question his tenacity, it was his sanity that left something to be desired.
Andrews had just come back from his doctor not even 2 hours ago, due to the damage to his leg before last weeks bought, his doctor had told him not to do too much in terms of exercise, but now his doctor was telling him not to wrestle this week.
Doctor: "What happened? your leg seems worse then when you came to see me last week?"
Andrews: "I tried to follow your advise, but my leg started acting up on me after training."
Doctor: "I trust that you didn't wrestle that week?"
Andrews: "I wrestled, my leg took a wicked beating as you can see, Cross damn near took it off with his Sharpshooter."
Doctor: "Ian, your leg is getting worse, I don't want you getting in the ring this week."
Andrews: "That's a big no can do doc, I've already planed the flight, payed the ticket, and booked a hotel."
Doctor: "I'm not saying don't go to the show, I'm saying don't wrestle at the show."
Andrews: "I'm afraid my answer is still no, my fans are counting on me to be there, and Gabriel deserves his match."
Doctor: "Fine do what you want, what do I know I only have a medical degree from Johns Hopkins."
Andrews: "Just set me up with a knee brace and I should be fine."
Doctor: "Alright."
fast forward to now, Andrews is hard at work training for his match with Gabriel Griffin when his knee starts acting up again.
Andrews: 'I can fight through the pain."
Andrews keeps reciting this mantra as he continues to do squat thrusts, amazingly, he feels no more pain as he finishes the squats then moves on to Weights.
As Andrews is lifting weights, his knee gives out on him.
Andrews: "AHHHHH!!!!! Dammit."
Andrews falls to the ground in pain holding his knee. With only one thing going through his mind. I have to make it to Thursday.
