AEW's Parker Boudreaux and Trench are both currently dealing with injury issues.

As per Fightful Select, the Mogul Affiliates duo are hurt, though the outlet doesn't have any further information when it comes to the nature of these injuries or how long each of the talents will be out of action.

Having aligned with Swerve Strickland, Trench has actually yet to make his in-ring debut for AEW as of this writing. In the case of Boudreaux, he's competed 13 times for the promotion, the most recent being a tag team match which pitted Parker and Swerve against Keith Lee and Dustin Rhodes on the 3 March edition of AEW Rampage.

As for Swerve Strickland, he himself has not been in action since that particular Rampage outing, and it looks as if the hugely talented star will be riding solo for the near future. Strickland has been with Tony Khan's promotion since March 2022, having been bafflingly released by WWE in November 2021.

Mogul Affiliates came together last December, with the trio of Strickland, Boudreaux and Trench attacking Keith Lee, as the awfully-named Swerve in Our Glory disbanded.
