ROH'S RUSH UNDERGOES SURGERY

Ring of Honor superstar RUSH has undergone what has been described locally as "emergency surgery" in Mexico City, Mexico.

His family will hold a press conference on Thursday to address both the surgery and RUSH’s future.

Mexican media outlet Pásala published a photo last night of RUSH being hospitalised. The image showed RUSH being pushed in a wheelchair by his wife, and there is an additional photo of the ambulance which apparently transported him to hospital.

RUSH did appear to suffer a knee injury at the second night of Ring of Honor’s two-day Glory By Honor show on August 21 in the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He teamed with his brother Dragon Lee to defeat Bandido and Rey Horus.

Ring of Honor later confirmed he suffered a knee injury on its website on August 25, writing: “RUSH suffered a knee injury during the tag match that pitted him and Dragon Lee against Bandido and Rey Horus. The exact nature of the injury is unknown and his recovery time is to be determined.”

RUSH was scheduled to compete at Ring of Honor’s Death Before Dishonor show on September 12 in the 2300 Arena, teaming again with Lee as well as La Facción Ingobernable stablemate Kenny King to challenge Kaun, Moses and Shane Taylor for the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championships, but he has been replaced by his father Bestia del Ring.
