On July 23, 2012 WWE celebrated the 1,oooth episode of Monday Night Raw. I watched the show from my home in Los Angeles. After watching the show, I got on my Twitter account, @steveaustinBSR, to read responses to the show. There were many people blaming Vince McMahon and the WWE for not having SCSA on the show. And there were some folks who had some very negative things to say about me, personally. The reason I did not attend RAW 1,000 was because I underwent a major knee surgery on my left knee on July 2, 2012. Dr. Neal ElAttrache of the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic in Los Angeles, CA performed the surgery. The surgery was a complete success. I am currently three weeks post op. I began physical therapy a few days ago. I had a world class surgeon and a great medical team working on me. I am now working with a top notch PT team. I am still on crutches and will probably lose the crutches in another week. Then I will be in a custom knee brace much like the braces I wore in the ring for 9-12 weeks. STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN IS A 100% ASS KICKING MACHINE. There was no way I was going to limp down the ramp on crutches for RAW 1,000. It was time to get my knee fixed. The decision to no-show RAW 1,000 was made by me and no one else. I have always taken pride in making my shots and have never faked an injury or illness. Pro Wrestling is a tough game and it was time to pay the piper for some of the damage I incurred in the ring. No gripes. No complaints. To the fans that were hoping to see SCSA, I'm sorry I missed the show. I would have loved to be there under different circumstances. I normally keep my personal business to myself, but due to feedback and incorrect speculation, I have posted this blog and given the 411 on why I was not at RAW 1,000. I will post more blogs about my PT and recovery soon. Steve Austin Per 411mania

Austin not to come because he is filming a movie nobody cares about is epic fail on SCSA.

CM Punk hitting GTS on Rock was sweet!

Austin may appear in title match and screw Punk is only option left.

Need a w.................BAD

Surgery............Rest ...........AAA...............He is not needed in 2012.

Paterno family just will not give up the ghost!

Oswalt has been scratched Monday so he may or may not pitch in Sox series! Roy Oswalt has been scratched from Monday's start due to back tightness. Uh oh. Oswalt, of course, was plagued by back issues last year, which limited him to 23 starts. He's headed to Houston to be examined. The Rangers will replace him with Scott Feldman for now, but Neftali Feliz will be an option before long. Rotoworld

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 03:08 PM) Way too easy for Dotel and Benoit. Yep Sox offense lays down and bullpen cannot wait to give games up when Sox have the lead.

A pathectic road trip ....................congrats RV you got faced in Motown!

ADA hitting about .100 since break it seems like.

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 03:01 PM) None of whom can hit. DV or AJ hit for GB do not tie the game it is over. Who gives a f*** if they hit they would be in for defense anyway.

GB hitting is bulls***. We got 3 guys who can play 2nd.

Nice job pen this is on Humber today.
