Santana Suffers Injury During Blood And Guts Match

Santana suffered an injury during the “Blood & Guts” main event bout last night on “AEW Dynamite.”

The Proud & Powerful star appeared to get hurt after hitting Jericho Appreciation Society’s Daniel Garcia with an Uranage throw, before landing awkwardly on both his wrist and knee, as seen in the video below. His leg buckled immediately following the maneuver, and he remained grounded for the rest of the match. According to fans at the arena, Santana would roll out of the ring, lying between the cage and the ropes, as he communicated with referees at the ringside area.

Santana never returned to the action and wasn’t part of the post-match celebration either. A few minutes before the brutal match concluded, Santana was seen being helped up the ramp and taken to the backstage area for a medical evaluation.

The “Blood & Guts” match would eventually conclude with Claudio Castagnoli tapping out Matt Menard atop the steel cage, barely seconds before Eddie Kingston would do the same to Chris Jericho. AEW teased some tension between Castagnoli and Kingston after the match, with the latter claiming he secured the win for William Regal’s Blackpool Combat Club & Co.

If Santana is forced to miss time with an injury, he’d be the latest to join AEW’s lengthy injury list. The list is crowded enough with AEW World Champion CM Punk (foot), Bryan Danielson (concussion), Kenny Omega (multiple injuries), Jungle Boy (undisclosed), Kyle O’Reilly (undisclosed), Red Velvet (undisclosed), Anthony Bowens (knee), Darius Martin (car accident), Leyla Hirsch (torn ACL), TNT Champion Scorpio Sky (knee), The Bunny (undisclosed), Buddy Matthews (shoulder) and Lee Johnson (knee) on the shelf with various injuries. On a positive note, Sky’s in-ring return has been announced for next week’s Dynamite.

Bryan Danielson Not Cleared To Compete At Forbidden Door Or Blood And Guts, Teases Forbidden Door Replacement

Another case of bad luck has struck AEW. Bryan Danielson is out for NJPW and AEW’s Forbidden Door, as well as AEW Blood and Guts.

 Danielson’s injury is an especially devastating blow; not only was he set to have a dream match against NJPW’s Zack Sabre Jr, but he was also booked to fight alongside the Blackpool Combat Club at AEW Blood and Guts.

On last night’s episode of Dynamite, Bryan Danielson opened the show by announcing to the AEW faithful that he had “good news and bad news.” The bad news is that he will not be competing at either Forbidden Door or Blood and Guts. The exact diagnosis of Danielson’s injury is unclear, but Bryan Danielson explained that his injury was the result of what Chris Jericho and Jake Hager did to him during the “Anarchy in the Arena” match at Double or Nothing.

Danielson’s good news is that he has found a replacement for him at both Forbidden Door and Blood and Guts. He touted this mystery man as one of the greatest technical wrestlers in the world, and someone more than capable of taking on Zack Sabre Jr. Danielson concluded his promo by teasing the audience; he announced that he won’t be telling anyone (including ZSJ) who this replacement will be.

Zack Sabre Jr appeared on the ramp, making his AEW debut.

ZSJ and Danielson exchanged some heated words, with the cocky Brit proclaiming himself the best technical wrestler in the world.

Danielson’s big secret will undoubtedly lead to boatloads of speculation over the next few days. There’s a decent amount of names who could fit Danielson’s criteria. Johnny Gargano, Cesaro and Jonathan Gresham, for example, are both proficient technical wrestlers that could contractually speaking appear at Forbidden Door and Blood and Guts. However, fans will just have to wait and see who ZSJ’s opponent is.

Miro Returns To AEW, Defeats Johnny Elite On Dynamite

“The Redeemer” ended his seventh-month AEW hiatus to face John Morrison on the June 1 edition of Dynamite on TBS.

Miro returned to AEW, cut a promo on God himself, and defeated Johnny Elite on this week’s edition of AEW Dynamite on TBS.

It all went down at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, California on June 1. The segment in which Miro made his long-awaited return began with hometown boy Johnny Elite making his way to the ring ahead of the match with a mystery opponent. The mystery was soon revealed when the man known as “The Redeemer” appeared on the big screen in a pre-taped promo vignette.

In his promo, Miro resumed his war with God and vowed to take God’s home by force … make of that what you will. The Bulgarian’s music started playing after the promo concluded, and Miro made his way to an AEW ring for the first time since last November.

In the ring, Miro made fairly short work of his fellow former WWE Superstar, finishing Johnny off with the brutal Game Over submission maneuver.

Miro has reportedly been nursing a hamstring injury for some time, which explains why he has worked a match since losing to Bryan Danielson at Full Gear on November 13.

According to Fightful Select (subscription required and recommended), Miro injured his hamstring prior to taking a hiatus from in-ring duties, which is why his leg was bandaged up during his last few matches. There was no official word from either Miro or AEW regarding recovery time, but the former TNT Champion appeared in a hype vignette on the Christmas Day (which also happens to be Miro’s birthday) edition of Rampage.

As you might recall, The artist formerly known as Rusev won the TNT Championship after defeating Darby Allin in the main event of the May 12 edition of AEW Dynamite on TNT. Miro plowed through veterans like Lance Archer and demolished upstarts like Dante Martin during his 141-day reign, but lost the title to Sammy Guevara on the September 29 edition of AEW Dynamite.
