From Keith Lipinski:
Mark Briscoe to miss 3 to 6 monts after surgery on Friday
From ROH site (sorry, I couldn't report about this last night, the injury I believe is to his left arm and the Jimmy Jacobs stabbing it is part of a storyline. Mark's got some tendon damage in his arm that started getting worse during the NOAH tour and issues with his wrist unrelated to one move/spot he did...)
Mark Briscoe Injured

Half of the ROH World Tag Team Champions Mark Briscoe was seriously injured last Saturday night in Chicago by The Age Of The Fall. Briscoe will need surgery and is expected to miss a significant amount of time. The status of the ROH World Tag Team Titles is currently being determined by ROH officials.
Jimmy Jacobs stabbed Mark in the wrist at the Chicago event, resulting in a deep laceration. We will have an update early this week in the ROHwrestling.com Newswire on Mark's condition and the status of the ROH World Tag Team Titles.

NWA North American Champion Mike DiBiase vs Fusion Champion Prince Raheem Rashaad..These two had a hard match to follow after the donneybrook we witnessed with Billy V and Diamond. The champions really had an excellent old school wrestling match. Rashaad used a trash can lid outside the ring on DiBiase to get disq. Paul Diamond raced in to help DiBiase. This was definitely one of the best Fusion shows in 4 years from the opener to finish!!
The next card is May 17th and us looking to perhaps top it. Matches annouced: Arik Angel and Rosie vs Jeff McAllister and Stone D. Paul Diamond vs Prince Raheem Rashaad. Mike DiBiase vs Billy V.
