Though fans weren't sure if what they witnessed was a work or not at the time, it seems the injuries Jim Ross sustained while calling the NJPW G1 Special this past Saturday were very real.

JR sent out a Tweet revealing that he may have broken a rib after his fall, and now some new info has come to light which suggests the legendary announcer has every reason to be upset.

According to F4WOnline.com, Ross had asked for the wrestlers not to fight near the broadcast positions - something which Jay White and Juice Robinson clearly ignored. Apparently, Jim had to cancel three public appearances as a result of the injury to his ribs and lungs as there is a fear of him getting pneumonia.

We'll keep you guys updated on this situation, but don't be surprised if JR decides not to call any more NJPW events after this.
