The Wrestlecade 4 event in Winston-Salem, North Carlina didn’t end too well for Matt Hardy, whose head was left busted open after a brutal shot of the guitar to the head that unfortunately didn’t break.

Hardy was bleeding profusely and required a whopping 38 stitches to cover the wound up. That wasn’t all as he spent the night in a hospital and was under doctor's observation.

According to reports from the fans in attendance at the event, Jarrett and Hardy put on a great match minus any over-the-top spots. It was old school wrestling with some sublime storytelling.

The event also saw former WWE United States Champion Shelton Benjamin in action against another former WWE star in Mr. Anderson.
