AEW Tag Team Champion Worked All Out Match Despite Injury

As one of AEW’s biggest shows of the year, it would always take a lot for someone to pull out of All Out due to an injury. And this has been proven by Nicholas Jackson, who teamed with his brother Matthew against Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta despite being hurt. According to Dave Meltzer on the latest episode of Wrestling Observer Radio , the AEW EVP suffered a shoulder injury during the eight-man tag the prior night on Collision. Still, the severity wasn’t confirmed, meaning he may still be able to compete at WrestleDream next month.

“Nicholas Jackson’s shoulder got hurt in the Collision All-Star 8-man tag on Friday, but he worked the entire All Out PPV match despite being injured.”

The Young Bucks are very divisive performers, as while some consider them one of the greatest tag teams in pro wrestling history, others think they should never have risen beyond the indie scene. Yet, the fact that they were crucial in establishing AEW as an alternative to WWE and helped create countless jobs means only the most cynical fans fail to acknowledge their impact on the industry.
