Last Tuesday, during TNA's tapings of their weekly show Impact, Abyss suffered a serious injury to his mouth. On Saturday, PWInsider.com reported that Abyss needed surgery to repair teeth that were severely damaged. Abyss is expected to return to action for next week's tapings. On Thursday, the taped episode of Impact aired and Abyss' injury was apparently due to a botched kick from Rob Van Dam. After the match, Abyss left the ring and was bleeding profusely out of his mouth.
I'm not sure how he could have been injured, with that gigantic leather mask over his mouth. Apparently it isn't good for much.
