- Matt Hardy was injured in the main event of last night's Extreme Rising internet pay-per-view in the main event after Luke Hawx shoved him from the top to the floor. Hardy got sick after hitting the floor and appeared to be going into convulsions. He sat up before the pay-per-view went off the air but medical officials told him to lay back down.
The pay-per-view went off the air with Hardy still down. Promotion officials asked the crowd to clear out as soon as the event ended. Hardy ended up returning to the locker room on his own and the belief is he suffered a concussion. It's believed Hardy may have also injured his ribs but that's not confirmed.
