As if the sad demise of Jon Moxley vs. Kenny Omega wasn't bad enough, it now looks like another of All Elite Wrestling's All Out pay-per-view's biggest matches could be in jeopardy.

As reported by Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio over the weekend, Rey Fenix was injured while wrestling on an independent show on Friday and while he was able to make the rest of his Saturday and Sunday bookings, he was extremely limited in what he could do. The nature and extent of Fenix's injury are yet to be disclosed.

Fenix and fellow Lucha Brother Pentagon Jr. are set to meet The Young Bucks in an AAA World Tag Team Championship ladder match at All Out this Saturday (31 August). The bout's status is yet to be clarified, though fans must be praying that Fenix is healthy enough to compete in such a potentially dangerous bout.

All Out will be the fourth time that the Lucha Brothers and Young Bucks have contested the AAA titles in 2019. They have passed the straps back and forth twice already this year, with the Bucks holding a 2-1 advantage in the rivalry, though the ladder match, if it goes ahead, could end the feud.
