#3. Hope is true: AEW star Lance Archer not having a concussion from his recent match

There is a serious concern over the health condition of AEW star Lancer Archer after he landed on his head/neck during a recent match. The latter attempted a failed moonsault during his match against Eddie Kingston in the first round of the world title eliminator on Dynamite. This forced the referee to scrap the original finish to the match.

Bryan Alvarez recently provided an update on Archer's condition. He noted that the Murderhawk Monster didn't have a concussion after the medical team checked a few tests on him.

Bryan Alvarez: The word we got was that he jammed his neck. He was checked out, he did not have a concussion and I guess they're going to check more stuff tomorrow. He does not have a concussion and he was walking around backstage and from what I understand, very angry about what happened.

We hope this is true, and Archer may not miss any time in the ring moving forward. Given the way Archer botched the finisher from the top rope, it could have been a possible career-ending move. He must be fortunate enough to survive the scare.


#2. Hope is true: Fans walking out during the taped edition of Rampage episode this week

Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio recently reported that "lots and lots of people" took a walk-out during this week's episode of AEW Rampage. The show featured three must-see matches featuring Bryan Danielson against Eddie Kingston in the opening match.

Dante Martin and Matt Sydal went up against each other in their trilogy. In the main event, Dr. Britt Baker faced Abadon in a trick-or-treat match. Fans reportedly left the Agganis Arena shortly after the match between Bryan and Kingston ended.

We hope this is true and expected since fans were sitting in the arena after the Dynamite episode. The company, as usual, had to shoot the entire AEW Dark and Rampage episodes in advance sometimes, which comes as hectic for fans in attendance. Tony Khan needs to look into this matter and bring a change to their schedule.
