Adam Cole will be on the shelf for a while due to a freak accident at AEW Grand Slam.
Adam Cole had some bad news for AEW fans this week. Last week's AEW Grand Slam event saw Cole jump off the entrance ramp as he ran down to help MJF with his AEW World Championship match against Samoa Joe. Cole noticeably landed awkwardly and was limping for the rest of the segment. Reports of him being taken to the hospital popped up soon after, and Tony Khan declined to comment on his status during a media conference call on Tuesday.
Cole arrived on this week's Dynamite on crutches with a large cast on his injured leg. He broke the unfortunate news that he broke three bones in his ankle places, tore ligaments due to the awkward landing and would need surgery. He was then willing to relinquish the ROH World Tag Team Championships, only for MJF to proclaim he'd defend the titles against The Righteous at WrestleDream in a handicap match.

He admitted he was confused by where that rumor started but stopped short of outright denying it.
"I think it's really good that we created a lot of speculation around WrestleDream, but I'm a little surprised as to how that speculation picked up. Specifically, the transactional nature of it because we have such a great partnership right now and we're doing such great things with New Japan Pro-Wrestling. So I was a little, I was a little surprised to see that," Khan said.
