Referee Dallas Edwards suffered a “medical emergency” after he slammed into the mat during an Ohio Valley Wrestling event on Thursday when someone from the top rope collided with him. Edwards, who OVW said in a statement Friday is “alert and doing much better,” started convulsing on the mat as the match continued around him in a disturbing scene, with wrestler Tony Evans even dragging him to the side at one point. “Last night during Rise, referee Dallas Edwards — a member of our OVW family — experienced a medical emergency during the broadcast,” the wrestling promotion said in a statement Friday.
