AEW Revolution 2025 seemingly passed without any wrestler on the card picking up a major injury.

Dave Meltzer stated on Wrestling Observer Radio that although "many people are banged up" after AEW's latest pay-per-view, "nobody is seriously hurt" as far as he knows.

Will Ospreay, who defeated Kyle Fletcher in a risk-heavy cage match at Revolution, apparently avoided serious injury despite participating in several high-impact spots, including a Spanish Fly from the top of the cage. Meltzer stated that although Ospreay landed on his hip while taking this bump (and was limping afterwards), he was told Ospreay wasn't seriously injured.

Swerve Strickland suffered a burst eardrum in his match with Ricochet, as revealed by Swerve himself during the post-Revolution media scrum. Meltzer's WOR cohost, Bryan Alvarez, stated this happened when a dive was transitioned into a Death Valley Driver outside the ring, with Swerve and Ricochet not getting their timings right.

Elsewhere, Momo Watanabe is believed to have left Revolution on crutches, following her match with TBS Champion Mercedes Moné. This is per Alvarez, who added that Moné suffered a bruised larynx after a strike to her neck, but seemed "largely okay" backstage. PWInsider has reported that Watanabe injured her ankle while coming off the ropes vs. Moné.

Alvarez added, too, that a lot of wrestlers were banged up after the show.

There is currently no word how much time, if any, the above wrestlers will miss after Revolution. That the pay-per-view doesn't seem to have added significant numbers of long-term absentees to AEW's injury list will be a relief, though.
