El Hijo del Vikingo suffered a hip injury during last Saturday’s ROH TV tapings where he teamed with Gravity and Metalik against Tony Nese, Angelico, and Serpentico.
The high flyer suffered a deep bruise on his hip rather than a hip break.
Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio shared the following update on Vikingo and his scheduled AAA Mega Championship match in Mexico on Saturday, September 23 against Komander:
“He got hurt, as we talked about last night. He got hurt on Saturday night. And it’s a hip injury. He’s got a title match in Mexico on Saturday against Kommander, and the last I heard last night is that it’s not 100% that he won’t be doing it, although it’s probable. They’re holding out hope. He was talking like, ‘I’m going to try to rehab all week and see.’ There’s no guarantee that he’s wrestling on Saturday. It’s touch and go. So that’s the situation. But he could be out for a little while, but he didn’t break his hip, thank God. It was a pretty serious injury.”
Vikingo is one of the hottest talents currently, and the 26-year-old wrestler has competed for AEW, ROH, and AAA, on top of his indie bookings.
