In a shocking turn of events, All Elite Wrestling (AEW) has been forced to make a last-minute change to its highly anticipated Double or Nothing Pay-Per-View event, thanks to a devastating injury sustained by wrestling veteran Eddie Kingston. The 20-year wrestling veteran, known affectionately as “The Mad King,” suffered a gruesome injury during a No Rope Last Man Standing match against Gabe Kidd at NJPW Resurgence, effectively ruling him out of the Anarchy in the Arena match at Double or Nothing 2024.
Disco Inferno, a fellow wrestling veteran, took to social media to weigh in on the situation, sparking widespread concern among AEW fans. Kingston’s injury, which includes a torn meniscus, torn ACL, and fractured tibia, has left his return to the ring uncertain. In a recent interview, Kingston revealed that he’s targeting a comeback at the All In: London PPV, which would put his recovery time at around nine months.
This development has sent shockwaves throughout the wrestling community, with fans anxiously waiting for the news of Kingston’s return. The 40-year-old wrestler has built a reputation for his fearless in-ring style, which has endeared him to fans across the globe. His absence from the Anarchy in the Arena match has raised more questions than answers, leaving many to wonder how AEW will fill the void left by Kingston’s injury.
Kingston’s storied career has seen him compete in various promotions, including Combat Zone Wrestling, Ring of Honor, and TNA, before making his AEW debut in 2022. His recent stint in NJPW has further cemented his status as a force to be reckoned with in professional wrestling.
While Kingston’s recovery and potential return to the ring hang in the balance, the real question on everyone’s mind is: can he make it back in time for All In: London PPV? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain – the wrestling world is holding its collective breath, eagerly awaiting the return of “The Mad King” to the ring.
