Edward "Eddie Edwards" Edwards almost went blind at the Impact Taping and no one talking about it?

[The Great One]

Eddie Edwards is hospitalized following an unfortunate accident at tonight's Impact Wrestling television tapings in Orlando, Florida.

Edwards defeated Sami Callihan in a singles match at the taping and was being attacked by his opponent after the match. Callihan placed a steel chair across Edwards' head and blasted it with a baseball bat, however the bat ricocheted off of the chair and nailed Edwards on the top of his head.

Edwards reportedly returned to the backstage area with a lot of blood flowing from his head, and was immediately taken to a nearby hospital. We will update you on his condition as soon as additional information becomes available.

Update:

As noted, Eddie Edwards was rushed to the emergency room following a bad accident with a baseball bat during an angle at Saturday night's Impact Wrestling television tapings in Orlando, Florida.

Edwards was struck by a baseball bat by Sami Callihan and there was apparently a lot of blood shed, as well as concerns that he might be in danger of losing his eye as a result of the accident.

In an update, Jason Powell of ProWrestling.net is reporting that Edwards suffered a broken nose, a broken facial bone and several bad lacerations as a result of the incident. Doctors are reportedly under the impression that he did not suffer a concussion.

It wasn't his hand, it was his head. He was basically taking a Baseball Bat to the dome, but the chair would "cushion" the blow.

You know, when I saw that Sami Callihan was the culprit, I just went to myself, "yes, he definitely would be the guy to do a spot that might blind somebody by mistake in front of 300 people." Even though I like the guy (Ohio represent!), that just sounds like the type of idiotic spot he would do.

Remember, this is the same guy that damn near broke a dude's neck with a sloppy piledriver his first night in Impact.
