Nasty Injury Takes Place On AEW Dynamite, What We Know

Hopefully it isn’t too bad. One of the worst things you can see in a wrestling match is an injury. These things can take place at any time and they can range in severity as well as the amount of time they make someone miss. It can be a scary thing to see someone get hurt and that was the case again this week. Now we know a bit more about what happened and how bad it is.

This week on AEW Dynamite, FTR’s Cash Wheeler was injured during a tag match against Santana and Ortiz. Wheeler was shoved off the top and his arm struck the buckle which connects the ring rope to the post. As a result, Wheeler grabbed his arm and went to be seen by the medical team, with Dax Harwood winning the match for FTR shortly thereafter. According to PWInsider.com, Wheeler suffered a “really bad cut” with no mention of a broken bone. He was treated and said to be ok, though there is no word on how much ring time he could miss.

This could have been worse. Check out what a healthy FTR can do:

Opinion: It is very nice to hear that this seems to be a cut instead of some kind of a horrible injury. That being said, a cut alone can be horrible in its own right and put Wheeler on the sidelines. We’ll have to see how bad things are, but this sounds like it could have been a heck of a lot worse. FTR is an outstanding team but they seem to have some of the worst luck, which is quite bad in its own right.

What do you think of FTR? What happens if Wheeler has to miss time? Let us know in the comments below.
