The WWE icon has spent all these years as a wrestling referee worrying about a bat being used as a weapon, but it would be the flying creature that actually got him.

Longtime WWE official Charles Robinson revealed on social media on Wednesday morning he was stuck at the hospital after being bitten by a bat.

Robinson’s standing in the industry underscores why the update drew such a reaction. He began refereeing in the 1990s and joined World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in 1997, where he became known as “Little Naitch” in a storyline aligned with Ric Flair and the Four Horsemen.
