Down And Out: AEW Star Injured, Out Of Tag Team Title Tournament

Ouch. Injuries can happen at any given time in wrestling and it does not matter how big of a star a wrestler might be. There is always the chance that someone could get hurt during a match and the question then becomes just how long they are going to be out of action. That makes for some horrible situations and now we are seeing something else that is not so good with an AEW star.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Him Again? Update On Brock Lesnar Possibly Returning To WWE TV

AEW star Anthony Henry has announced that he has suffered a broken jaw, during a match against Bryan Keith for a DPW show. The injury took place when Henry hit a jumping knee to the jaw, which will result in Henry needing surgery. Henry has not given a time frame for when he will be back in the ring, but did mention that he and his partner JD Drake, collectively known as the Workhorsemen, will be out of the AEW Tag Team Title tournament as a result.

I honestly don't know how I will take this. I've never had an injury like this. I don't know what to do without wrestling, and my biggest fear is that it derails any upcoming plans for Drake and I. I may be absent from here for a while. I appreciate all the fans who support us! https://t.co/UhV811VFFI

The Workhorsemen are a solid team. Check out what they have done:

Opinion: That is horrible to hear as you never want to see someone get injured in any way. Hopefully Henry is able to get back in the ring sooner than later, as it would be terrible to have him on the sidelines for a long time. It also makes things a bit more confusing in the tournament, as there is a spot that is going to need to be filled. That could make for an interesting switch, as another team will get a shot.

How should the Workhorsemen be used? Who should take their tournament spot? Let us know in the comments below.
