Updates on several AEW talent
Added 2023-03-03 01:47:47 +0000 UTCWe have an update on the status of several talent in AEW, as requested by our Q&A readers
Hikaru Shida: Hikaru Shida has been dealing with a finger injury, and is back in Japan. She worked the Jericho Cruise, performing in a couple of matches, but has otherwise barely wrestled this year.
Kris Statlander: Despite sustaining an ACL injury that will still have her sidelined for months, Statlander has been backstage at several AEW shows in recent months. We know for sure she was present at the Lexington and Toronto events.
Miro: Thus far, there's been nothing new on Miro since our last update, although the two sides did meet around the time our report dropped. We're told that he's healthy and ready to go, but haven't heard an update on creative discussions between he and All Elite Wrestling. Miro has several years left on his contract after signing a four-year extension a year or so ago.
Leyla Hirsch: As of the last update we'd heard on Leyla Hirsch was that she was "slowly getting there," after having knee surgery in May. There was word that she'd resumed in-ring training recently.
Scorpio Sky: Scorpio Sky has been healthy for several months, and has been cleared. He was dealing with an injury last summer, but has long been cleared. He was at the IMPACT No Surrender PPV, but hasn't been at many AEW Dynamites of late. There were some AEW talent surprised to not see him at the LA show in early January. Scorpio Sky also has several years left on his deal, as he said in late 2021 he signed a five-year extension.

Were best friends legitimately injured? I heard Chuck Taylor was nursing some injuries for a while now

2023-03-03 02:19:02 +0000 UTCShida is the new ROH champ confirmed. Statlander and Hirsch start their best of 7 series and Miro and Sky become the new tag champs as "Men of God"

2023-03-03 02:15:09 +0000 UTCAs long as we don’t completely lose him, I’m happy. I agree, it’s disappointing he won’t be the WC right now but I was scared! Cus let’s be real, if he really meant to quit, that’s exactly how he’d do it. He can always come back to AEW and I think in the future he will.
