AEW's Darius Martin Out With Injury Again
Top Flight tag wrestler had just returned last month and is sidelined again.
There's never a good time to get injured, but there are times that are worse than others, and Darius Martin might have found one of those unfortunate spots.
Martin, one half of Top Flight with his brother Dante, had just returned to action last month after missing more than a year due to a torn ACL. But now, Fightful Select reports that Darius has sustained a leg injury once again and will be sidelined from action for an undetermined amount of time. He will miss this weekend's Warrior Wrestling show and will be replaced.
Although it's unclear how much time Martin will miss, those who have spoken to Fightful say they expect him to miss "a lengthy period in the ring." Darius returned from a year-long injury in March in the Casino Tag Team Battle Royale, reforming Top Flight with his brother Dante. The duo had amassed a 4-1 record in tag matches in AEW before Darius went down and climbed the tag ranks.
Darius' injury might help explain the strange appearance of Dante alongside Brock Anderson and Lee Moriarty against the Blackpool Combat Club on AEW Dynamite on Wednesday without nary a mention of his brother.
Here's hoping Darius Martin recovers quickly from his injury and is back in action quickly.
