Needs A Breather: Top AEW Star Expected To Take Time Away Due To Injuries

He needs some time. Wrestling is a very physical sport and there are always going to be things that slow a wrestler up when they are trying to keep going. One of the biggest issues can be injuries, which can build up rather quickly. At some point a wrestler might need some time off to deal with those injuries and that seems to be the case again with one of the bigger stars going today.

Over the weekend at AEW Worlds End, Maxwell Jacob Friedman lost the World Title to Samoa Joe. Following the loss, the Devil and his henchmen attacked Friedman further. According to Fightful Select, Friedman is expected to take some time off from AEW. Friedman is dealing with a number of injuries, including a back injury and a torn labrum in his shoulder. There is no word on when he will be back, though there is always the chance he could decide to work through his injuries.

Friedman is a star when he is around. Check out what he has done in AEW:

Opinion: This is something that has to happen every so often and it is going to help Friedman in the long run. At the end of the day, he has been hurt for a while now and needs the chance to rest up. That is something that will do him a lot of good as he can come back better than he has been in a very long time. Friedman is one of the best today, but there is only so much he can do when he is that banged up.

What do you think of Friedman? Who should he face when he returns to AEW? Let us know in the comments below.
