Matt Hardy hospitalized and receives 38 stitches to the head

TNA’s Matt Hardy was hospitalized last night and needed 38 stitches to close a head wound after he was on the receiving end of a nasty guitar shot.

Hardy, who was WrestleCade’s champion, lost the title to Jeff Jarrett at the WrestleCade IV event in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The 41 year old was admitted to a hospital and kept overnight for observation. Hardy posted the very graphic photos of the head wound and his face in a crimson mask. “A frustrating 13 hours. Ready to get home to my wife & baby,” he then tweeted.

Hardy thanked fans for their support and concern and told Ethan Carter III, who interfered in the match, that he will “end him.”
