Just found this out from an OSU guy that was there....this is what he wrote

Bunch used all of his injury time with a leg cramp at the end of the first period (score tied 0-0). Bunch recovers, takes bottom, promptly escapes and hand fights very well with a 1-0 lead.

He had JT in a front headlock when he pushes off, separates with about 5 feet of space between him and JT, and then Bunch passes out and collapses. Johnny didn't touch him, nor have him in any type of choke hold or anything. It was very narcoleptic, it seemed.

In any event, after 30 seconds, Bunch wakes up, jumps up and down like nothing happened, and gets told he has just injury defaulted. He throws a fit but that's how it went. The collapse by Bunch was one of the oddest things I've ever witnessed in a match.

The scary part was that Bunch didn't even know he was out. The ref told him after his first period injury that he only had 13 seconds of injury time left. Shawn was mad because he did not know he had been out for 30 seconds.

I thought the ref could have been more leniant. The clock was not used to display injury time, there was no one in Shawn's corner to help him with the time, and the table workers were not calling out the time.
