That doesn’t sound good. An injury is one of the worst things that you can see in wrestling as you never know how long someone is going to be out of action. What can make it even worse is the kind of injury that is under the surface and has no real timetable to heal up. That is the case again with a current prominent star, and now things are already looking a bit worse.
Earlier this week, Ring Of Honor World Champion Jonathan Gresham suffered a possible concussion in a match against Dalton Castle at AEW Battle Of The Belts II. The injury has not yet been confirmed, but Progress Wrestling has announced that Gresham will be missing his appearances for the company in the UK this weekend. The company did say that he will be back in action on May 15. There is no word on when Gresham might be wrestling before then.
Regrettably, due to injury, Jonathan Gresham is not medically cleared to make the trip to the UK this weekend. Replacements will be named shortly for both #AtlasWeekend events. Our champion WILL be back in action at Chapter 134 on Sunday May 15th. pic.twitter.com/pxGNAIs3YP

Opinion: That’s never good to see but the fact that it seems Gresham will be back next month is a good sign. You never can tell what a concussion is going to do as it is the kind of injury that can keep someone on the shelf for a very long time. Gresham is a heck of a talent and I could go for seeing him face a lot of the current AEW roster. Once he is back to full health, we can see that sooner rather than later.
What do you think of Gresham? Who would you like to see him face when he gets back in the ring? Let us know in the comments below.
