Targeted Return Dates For 3 Top AEW Stars Revealed
Update on potential comebacks for three of AEW's biggest stars.
All Out 2022 has likely been targeted for a trio of huge All Elite Wrestling comebacks.
Dave Meltzer reported on Wrestling Observer Radio that while it's still too early to tell whether or not he'll make it, Kenny Omega hopes to be back for the 4 September pay-per-view. This is also the targeted return date for AEW World Champion CM Punk - and likely Bryan Danielson as well.
All three are currently sidelined with injuries. Kenny has been gone the longest, having announced in November 2021 that he was taking time away from wrestling to undergo treatment on a number of health issues he had been working through for an untold period of time. Vertigo, a sports hernia, and shoulder issues were amongst his ailments.
Punk, meanwhile, is believed to have broken a bone in his foot shortly after defeating 'Hangman' Adam Page to become World Champion at Double Or Nothing 2022. Danielson has been absent since pulling out of June's Forbidden Door pay-per-view, where he was scheduled to face Zack Sabre Jr.
Whether or not any of these wrestlers will be back in time for All Out 2022 remains to be seen. 4 September is the target for each, though.
