Because many of the top stars were still recuperating from the gruelling battles at AEW Revolution 2025, this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite was primarily focused on promos rather than in-ring action.
According to Fightful, a number of wrestlers were too injured to perform, thus last-minute alterations were made to the performance.
Due to the physical strain on its artists, AEW changed the lineup after Kenny Omega’s promo opened the show.
The emphasis this week was on promos, even though AEW Dynamite usually focusses more on matches. However, once the wrestlers are fully recovered, the business is anticipated to resume more action-packed programs.
Due to a broken fibula he suffered in a battle against Will Ospreay at AEW Collision on November 30, 2024, as part of the AEW Continental Classic, Juice Robinson will be sidelined for some time. According to Fightful Select, the injury happened during a sunset flip spot.
At WrestleCade weekend, Robinson was observed needing crutches due to the injury. AEW President Tony Khan confirmed the injury and declared that Kommander would take his place in the tournament.
Though it’s unclear if Bullet Club Gold is involved, there are still imaginative plans for Jay White. After Austin’s injury, the Gunns made a brief appearance on TV again, but they haven’t been on much since.
There is no formal return date set for Robinson, who is anticipated to be gone for a long time. AEW won’t bring him back until he has received complete medical clearance.
