Bob Holly Receives 24 Stitches After ECW

For those of you who saw the ECW show on SCI-FI last night you know that Bob Holly got his back sliced open badly, needing 24 stitches, when he suplexed Van Dam through a table and the metal frame cut him.

Holly was immediately taken to the back after the match and given medical treatment by the WWE doctor for RAW, SmackDown!, and ECW. The main doctor actually came to the ring and helped bandage Holly after the match ended. You've got to give Holly credit for working that long and taking that many hard bumps after the slice occurred.

Holly Injured

On Tuesday night, Hardcore Holly suffered a deep cut approximately 15 centimeters across the left side of his back when he and Rob Van Dam when through a table together at the ECW on Sci Fi show in Tulsa, Okla.

Holly was treated on the scene by WWE physician Dr. Ferdinand Rios.

"Holly required 15 sutures to close the wound," explained Rios. "The injury went all the way down to the fatty tissue; the layer right above the muscle. The injury should cause him too much of a problem other than the risk of infection from a dirty ring, he'll be on antibiotics to prevent that. The sutures will stay in for ten days and he probably not be able to wrestle for ten days."

Well you don't source anything... But on the front page it says 24 stitches then inside it says 15 sutures whats the difference between a stitch and a suture?

that must have hurt really much and still letting the match go on that just shows how much it means to him
