- Former WWE Women's champion Candice Michelle suffered a cracked clavicle - the long bone that connects the arm to the body - during yesterday's Monday Night RAW match against Beth Phoenix and was knocked out cold. Michelle was on the top rope but Phoenix ran the ropes before she was standing still and she landed flat on her face after her feet hit the top rope thus giving her no option how to land. Referee Mike Chioda immediately noticed that something was wrong as she didn't even move and was calling her and touching her hand but the former champ was out unconscious. The fans went "Oooooh" as soon as she hit the ground knowing it wasn't the way she was supposed to land. Chioda instructed Phoenix to end the match and was clearly heard saying "Pull her out and cover her." Phoenix grabbed her by one hand and from her hair as Chioda told her "Cover her, easy" and then said "This is it, this is it" during his three count. A bunch of referees and WWE's Dr Rios stormed the ring and after a few minutes Candice was sitting up however she told them she needed to lay back down. EMT's were called in and she was stretchered out to the backstage area. WWE.COM reports that she will be out for six to eight weeks.
