Referee Dallas Edwards released a statement on Friday evening to address the medical episode he experienced during an OVW match the night before.<\/p>\n
Edwards appeared to be experiencing a seizure during a \u2018Four Corners of Chaos\u2019 match on Thursday night at the Davis Arena in Louisville, Kentucky.<\/p>\n
The referee went down after a flying forearm from one of the wrestlers and began to convulse moments later. The match continued, and Edwards was eventually tended to.<\/p>\n
After statements from OVW<\/a> and Edwards\u2019 girlfriend were put out, Dallas himself shared the following<\/a>:<\/p>\n Hey guys! I know everyone seems to know about the scary incident last night at OVW. I have been evaluated by a hospital and I have a concussion as well as a subdural hematoma (brain bleed).<\/p>\n With that being said, I have made the decision to take some needed time away to get my life and health back in good spirits!<\/p>\n I appreciate all of the support everyone has been offering, but as far as money goes, I am grateful to be in a position that I can manage an accident like this.<\/p>\n In lieu of donations, I instead implore all of my fellow workers to get some sort of training in assisting another\u2019s life.<\/p>\n Being in the position before, it\u2019s very important to be educated in all scenarios relating to injury, illness, or condition in the ring, especially when we\u2019re performing.<\/p>\n I am not mad at anyone or anything other than the situation as a whole, and that I\u2019ve been sitting for about 24 hours straight in a hospital lol.<\/p>\n As far as updates go, I am getting a CT scan in the morning, and if that goes well, I\u2019ll be home.<\/p>\n Thank you to everyone who has reached out or stopped by, it means more than any of you know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Referee Dallas Edwards released a statement on Friday evening to address the medical episode he experienced during an…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":204687,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[102,80209,104,103],"class_list":["post-204686","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-dallas","tag-dallas","tag-dallas-edwards","tag-dallas-headlines","tag-dallas-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/204686","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=204686"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/204686\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/204687"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=204686"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=204686"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=204686"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
