While it feels as if every other day brings news of yet another new AEW injury right now, there's some more positive news where Bobby Fish is concerned.

Having been out of action for a month due to an ankle injury, Fish will be returning to action on tonight's episode of AEW Dark: Elevation. There, the Undisputed Elite man will face Blake Li in a match taped last Wednesday from Savannah, Georgia's Enmarket Arena.

Fish last competed on the 17 June AEW Dynamite, where he lost against Darby Allin. While the 45-year-old New Yorker is now cleared to step between the ropes once more, his Undisputed Elite buddies Adam Cole and Kyle O'Reilly are still on the shelf. In Cole's case, he suffered a concussion at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door on top of prior labrum issues, whilst the specifics of KOR's injuries have yet to be disclosed.

The full card for tonight's AEW Dark: Elevation reads as below:

- Julia Hart vs. Amber Nova

- Marina Shafir & Nyla Rose vs. Skye Blue & Brittany

- Tony Nese vs. John Walters

- The Butcher, The Blade & Angelico vs. Bryce Cannon, Brandon Bullocks & Jameson Ryan

- Bobby Fish vs. Blake Li

- Ethan Page vs. Leon Ruffin

- The Dark Order's Evil Uno & 10 vs. Terrence & Terrell Hughes
