During his match with Blitz during last night's Saturday Night Showdown, current EMW World Heavyweight Champion Terrell Owens rammed his head into an exposed turnbuckle near the end of the match. It is now being confirmed that Owens suffered a mild concussion due to the mishap and it appears he will some time off to recover. Officials say that the injury is only a minor head injury, however, with current times of head injuries being closely followed, NIWA officials are taking no chances.

Owens will be out for 1-2 weeks of action, however, Owens will not miss his scheduled EMW World Heavyweight Championship defense against Kimbo Slice, nor will he miss his Championship Eliminator Challenge match at Summer Stampede, but Owens has been recommended to be written out of all EMW and NIWA shows due to this injury.

NIWA will keep you posted if anything further develops.
