AEW star Will Ospreay shared some heartbreaking news on the latest episode of Dynamite. He has been working diligently to improve the product in the months leading up to All In. He and Swerve Strickland defeated The Young Bucks at the promotion's biggest pay-per-view of the year. Additionally, he vowed to take down the Death Riders and helped Hangman Page win.

At the All In 2025 main event, The Aerial Assassin tried to help The Cowboy and came to the ring to take out the Death Riders. However, he was outnumbered and ambushed by the faction. Unfortunately, he had to be stretchered out of the arena. This Wednesday, he revealed that he has two herniated discs and will be out for now. Additionally, Ospreay stated that he was hopeful to return to Forbidden Door.

While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, journalist Dave Meltzer found it shocking that the former International Champion was guaranteed to return by Forbidden Door, which is just one month away. In contrast, he should be taking at least a year off to recover.

“It’s shocking that he said he’d be back in a month with two herniated discs… It sure sounded like something that should be a year off. When he said that—and I knew it was a shoot—I thought, ‘This is not good at all,'" Meltzer said. [H/T - Ringside News]

Following the injury announcement, The Realest star came out to show support for The Aerial Assassin. Later, Swerve took to X/Twitter to name their tag team.

"Twin Blades," he wrote.
