Hologram Provides Recovery Update Following Knee Surgery

AEW’s enigmatic star Hologram has been absent from television since a violent encounter on the September 27 episode of AEW Collision. Following an attack by Kyle Fletcher that targeted the luchador’s lower body, it was confirmed that Hologram had suffered a serious injury, later revealed to be a knee issue that required surgical intervention.

“Countdown Initiated” for a 2026 Return

The surgical procedure took place in October, and while Tony Khan previously suggested the star would be sidelined for the remainder of 2025, Hologram recently took to social media to signal the start of his rehabilitation. The post featured a stylized message to his followers: “Injury detected. Source: clone. Surgical process complete. Recovery protocol active. Countdown initiated. I’m coming back to finish this.”

The attack by Fletcher occurred amidst a mysterious “El Clon” glitch during a backstage segment, which has since fueled speculation regarding the future creative direction of the character. While a specific date for his return has not been provided, the update confirms that the recovery process is officially underway. Fans are eager to see if the undefeated star can maintain his momentum once he is medically cleared to re-enter the squared circle.
