List of all major injured AEW stars

AEW has a stacked roster with multiple huge names, but an injury to any one of them can derail all the momentum. Injuries are one of the most unfortunate things that can happen to any wrestler.

Multiple stars have suffered injuries this year, with the most recent being Will Ospreay, who suffered a broken nose earlier this month. However, he continues to make regular appearances on weekly programming.

However, there are multiple stars within the company who have been out of action for a while. Members of Bullet Club Gold have been out for some time now, with one member out due to a broken hand while the other faces a time out due to a fractured fibula.

Others have been ruled out for some time following various injuries such as a torn bicep, an injury to the lower back, and a long-term foot injury. Former AEW tag champion has been out of action since last year due to a career-threatening health complication.

With many of the promotion's stars out due to injuries, the promotion had to cancel some of the plans that had been laid out for these stars. It'll be interesting to see if Tony Khan reverts to these presently shelved plans when these stars return.
