Shane Helms Speaks On His Accident, Surgery & His New App

Arda Ocal (@arda_ocal) and Jimmy Korderas (@jimmykorderas) of The Score/Right After Wrestling spoke with former WWE & WCW Cruiserweight champion – Shane Helms. Highlights:

How his last surgery went after his motorcycle accident

"I was in the hospital for maybe a week and I left early. If I was gonna be in pain, I would rather be at home. We (the doctors & I) think I'll be okay and I'll be able to return to the ring. I still can't turn my foot to the 90-degree direction. I still have 4 plates and 23 screws in my foot and the bones and tendons still have to heal and grow with all those long screws and plates before I can get back. But after that and the rest of those surgeries, I should be okay."

His new iPhone app

"You can take photos with me. Some people take pics of biting my head off or giving me the bird. I just wanna keep the app at 99 cents. People tweeted me to keep it at 99 cents so I wanted to keep it cheap for the fans. I had this idea for such a long time, even when I was in the WWE. But you can't do anything creative when you're in the the WWE. If I brought up that idea, they would've given it to everybody else but me. There would already probably be a John Cena app, if that was the case."
