Oh my goodness.

According to the report, during Impact Wrestling's taping, Edwards defeated Sami Callihan, who attacked him after the match. Callihan reportedly placed a chair on Edwards and hit it with a baseball bat. The bat bounced off the chair and hit Edwards across the top of the head, per the report.
