That is the case with a current AEW star who has been out of action for quite a long time.

AEW star the Blade has revealed on Twitter that he is recovering from spinal fusion surgery. This comes as Blade has been out of action since February, with his last AEW match taking place on January 3.

You might remember him. Check out Blade in AEW:

Opinion: That is never good to hear and hopefully Blade recovers sooner than later. It could take quite a long time before he is able to get back in the ring and at 44 years old, it is unlikely that Blade is going to be able to wrestle much more in the first place. Back fusion surgery is rather serious in the first place and now all we can do is wait and see just what he is able to do.
