— According to a report by John Pollock, Jim Ross was in the emergency room this morning getting evaluated for a rib injury after the incident at the NJPW G1 Special where the ringside barricade crashed into his booth, sending him falling to the ground. Ross alluded to the injury last night via a tweet and is said to be in a lot of pain.
— Ross is also reportedly very upset as he had previously asked NJPW officials to keep the wrestlers away from the announce booth, knowing that they do a lot of fighting in the audience. However, they did a spot right in front of him and the barricades weren’t connected and so they immediately tipped over and took him out. Ross added that he will have to cancel three commitments this week as a result of his injuries.
