Despite the concern generated by reports that AEW TNT Champion Kyle Fletcher left Saturday’s Collision in a walking boot following his tag match with Mark Davis against The Rascalz, an update has emerged that offers some reassurance. Fletcher was said to be in good spirits following the show, which is an encouraging sign given the nature of the concern.
Bryan Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer was first to report the walking boot, noting that whatever the injury is, it appeared legitimate. Fletcher’s knee had landed awkwardly during the match after making contact with Davis’ back, prompting the concern in the first place. The TNT Championship picture and Dynasty implications of any significant injury remain worth monitoring, but the report of Fletcher being in good spirits at least suggests the situation may not be as serious as initially feared. Updates on his status are expected in the coming days.
