After a chaotic Symphony of Destruction match on WWE Friday Night SmackDown this week, Shinsuke Nakamura required medical attention. WWE’s official Instagram account shared a picture of a wound on Nakamura’s head that required nine staples.

Nakamura fittingly commented on the match using his Twitter account; “The piano was toughest,” wrote Nakamura, “and I couldn’t beat it.”

Don’t worry. I’m a tough.
But, the piano was toughest. @BraunStrowman and I couldn’t beat it. https://t.co/7tuXMTr6SN

Happy 18th birthday, Ring of Honor; the company was held its first event on this day in 2002. Ian Riccaboni, the company’s lead play-by-play commentator, commented on the occasion.

ROH has taken me all over the world, literally. I've been on the team for six years, went from young go-fer to 160+ episodes of television, PPVs, MSG, etc.

I am eternally indebted and that doesn't even include all of the early events I Torrented while at NYU (sorry @rohcary!) https://t.co/hAV21nnmM0
