WATCH: SmackDown Star Accidentally Busted Open With A Chair, Rushed To The Back

That’s a nasty one. Wrestling is a physical sport that does not often get the credit it deserves for everything that can go wrong. The wrestlers are highly trained and skilled professionals who know what they are doing, but there are times when something might not go as planned. That can often lead to a problem, which is what happened this week in a nasty situation.

This week on SmackDown, Imperium attacked Braun Strowman, with Gunther putting him in an armbar. Ricochet ran in for the save with a chair to chase Imperium off, but one of his swings accidentally hit Gunther in the face. Gunther was busted open and, according to PWInsider.com, was immediately rushed to the back. After being checked out, Gunther was said to be fine and there is nothing to suggest he will miss any time.

This didn’t look good. Check out the segment, plus another look with the chair shot and the two of them in a more controlled situation:

Opinion: That is the kind of thing that is going to happen from time to time and thankfully it doesn’t seem to be anything too serious. Gunther getting hit in the face and busted open is rough but if it is little more than skin deep, it shouldn’t make much of a difference. These things are just going to happen on occasion and while Ricochet is at fault, it is little more than an accident that happened.
