So Sad

This is just so sad.

TMZ is reporting that former WWE Superstar Shane Gregory Helms, who is sitting in a Raleigh hospital with his girlfriend, recovering from various injuries sustained in his Thursday night motorcycle accident, is being investigated by authorities.

It is speculated -- I should note that there are no charges pending against Helms at the moment -- that alcohol may have played a factor in the crash that left him with over 200 stitches and his girlfriend with a broken neck.

Citing the police report, it is claiming that witnesses saw Helms run a stop sign on his motorcycle before crashing through a chain link fence. One witness claimed to have been hanging around with Helms at a restaurant prior to the crash and was certain that Helms had been drinking.

They did take a blood sample from Helms at the scene of the accident to test for alcohol, but it could take months for the results to come back.

If this was a drunk-driving related accident, it really is sad. And I really hope that this will wake Helms up. His friends, his family and his fans are very, very lucky that he survived this.

Get Well Soon!

This is very unfortunate.

It's been reported -- and confirmed -- that former WWE Superstar and Highway 2 Helms host Shane "Hurricane" Helms and his girlfriend Karen were both seriously injured in a motorcycle accident on Thursday night.

TNA Superstar and close friend of Helms Matt Hardy has posted an update on his condition. It was reported earlier that Helms had broken his ankle, and his arm, but from what Matt says, things are much worse.

"Shane was in pretty bad shape. His face

was damaged pretty badly. His leg was broken very badly in a few places and will probably have to have several major surgeries.

"His girlfriend [Karen] was injured as well. Actually,

that seemed like it was going to be a very, very serious situation. Fortunately, over the course of the evening, it got better.

She's kind of out of the woods, I think, although she definitely has some broken bones

and major injuries. They're both right now at the hospital recovering back in Raleigh, North Carolina."

This is a very serious and very unfortunate situation. For as harsh as I am towards the entire Carolina Clique, I'd never want to see something like this happen. I sincerely hope for the best for those two and wish them the speediest recovery they can make from something as serious as this.

Update on Helms

Shane Helms has finally responded via Twitter about his rumored arrest after engaging in a bar fight last night.

"Can't let Jeff [Hardy] have all the heat.

But I didn't get arrested at all. Got

a citation for defending my woman.

No regrets, no apologies.

It could have been worse, I coulda

been jaywalking."

Of course, he is referring to former WWE Superstar and one half of the tag team known as Cryme Tyme's Shad Gaspard, who found himself arrested in Cleveland, Ohio, for what he claimed to be jaywalking. Police say he was belligerent and warranted the arrest, Gaspard claims racial profiling.

Though a citation isn't as serious as an arrest, it's still not very good to be getting into so much trouble, especially when alcohol seems to be involved. Again, last January, Helms and Chris Jericho were arrested for getting into a fight in a taxicab. Both were drunk. In 2008, Helms was charged with assault in a barfight, but those charges were eventually dropped.

Helms Arrested?

PWInsider.com is reporting that former WWE Superstar Shane Helms, also known as "The Hurricane", was arrested this weekend . They are citing their report from an announcement made on North Carolina radio station WTSB.

They are claiming that on March 13, 2011, the longtime friend of Matt and Jeff Hardy was arrested for engaging in a fight in a local bar. He and another man were arrested at a bar called Rehab (dead serious). Apparently the other man put his hands on Helms' girlfriend (not TNA Knockout Velvet Sky; they split up). Helms apparently has an April 28, 2011 court date to answer to the charges.

This is not the first time Helms has found trouble. During his time off of WWE with a neck injury he had also been involved in a bar fight. As well, last January, Helms and Chris Jericho were arrested for engaging in a fight in a taxicab. Both men were drunk. Reports also claimed Matt Hardy was there, though it is said he ran from the scene and did not return.

This is going to sound insensitive of me to say, but it seems as though Jeff Hardy isn't the only guy to have had a bad weekend. Time to grow up, boys.
