Update On Suspected Wardlow Injury On AEW Dynamite

Coming out of last night's AEW Dynamite, many fans were left questioning whether Wardlow had suffered a knee injury.

Dynamite saw the War Dog take on Komander in a fairly one-sided match, putting the masked man away in barely five minutes. The end of the bout and post-match saw Wardlow favouring his right knee, which had some people wondering if the powerhouse was indeed injured.

Per the Wrestling Observer, Wardlow's selling of his knee from some Komander dropkicks and being run into the steel steps was just that; selling. It was the match-ending powerbomb where things seemed to go array, with it appearing Wardlow's knee gave out as he could be heard saying "f**k". Following the contest, the Undisputed Kingdom man was limping and clearly showing his frustration.

Straight from Wardlow himself, the 36-year-old said his knee is "just fine".

A normal man’s knee would be ruined. I’m no normal man. I’m still coming for the heavyweight title. And there’s nothing and no one that can stop me. Knee is just fine ? #AEWDynamite

Despite this, Bryan Alvarez noted on the latest Wrestling Observer Radio that Wardlow is "not fine".

As Alvarez detailed:

"Wardlow says he is fine. I have been told that it's not fine. What I was told is that he’s getting checked out tomorrow. They think it’s possibly a torn meniscus, but that he dodged a bullet and it wasn’t much worse and he’ll probably be alright. But he definitely is not fine. Something went wrong."

Expect more on this as it develops.
