Ricky Starks, one of All Elite Wrestling’s (AEW) most promising young talents, has been absent from television for some time now, sparking concerns among fans and sparking rumors about his future in the company. According to recent reports from PWInsider, Starks was in Jacksonville, Florida, where he was evaluated by AEW’s medical staff, fueling speculation about the nature of his absence.
Starks’ last appearance on AEW television was on the 30th episode of AEW Collision, where he and his tag team partner, Big Bill, lost to Top Flight in the AEW World Tag Team Title tournament. Since then, the 30-year-old wrestler has been missing in action, leaving fans wondering what’s behind his sudden disappearance.
It’s worth noting that Starks has had a remarkable run in AEW, having captured the FTW Championship and becoming the AEW World Tag Team Champion alongside Big Bill. His absence has undoubtedly left a void in the promotion, with fans eagerly awaiting his return to the ring.
Interestingly, Starks’ relationship with wrestling legend Sting has been making headlines. The two shared the ring together in Sting’s first match back in the ring, and coincidentally, Starks was also Sting’s second-to-last opponent. In a recent interview with Sportskeeda’s Senior Editor Bill Apter, Starks reflected on sharing the ring with the Hall of Famer, a experience he will surely cherish for a long time.
As the wrestling world waits with bated breath for Starks’ return, questions linger about the nature of his injury and when he will be cleared to compete again. AEW has yet to provide an official update on Starks’ status, leaving fans to speculate about his future in the company.
One thing is certain: Ricky Starks’ talent and charisma have endeared him to fans worldwide, and his return to the ring will be eagerly anticipated. As the wrestling world waits for news on his return, one thing is clear – Starks’ absence has been deeply felt, and his eventual return will be a welcome boost to the AEW roster.
