Bryan Danielson defeated Kazuchika Okada at the AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door II pay-per-view event last month, where he suffered a broken arm. The initial belief was that he would be out of action for 6-8 weeks.
As we previously reported here on eWn, Brie Bella noted on her Instagram Stories that Danielson’s injury is worse than they thought and shared an x-ray of the broken arm. Because of the injury, he was removed from the Blood and Guts match on next week’s episode of AEW Dynamite between The Elite and the Blackpool Combat Club.
Dave Meltzer reported in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that “Bryan Danielson has not been backstage since his AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door injury.”
