Matt Jackson is on the sidelines with a legitimate injury as he has a partially torn bicep.
The injury happened last month during the three-way AEW Trios Championship match on Dynamite. AEW recently did an angle on Dynamite with The Young Bucks being stretchered into an ambulance right after being attacked by the Blackpool Combat Club.
Later in the broadcast, Hangman Page made the save for Kenny Omega following his match against El Hijo Del Vikingo as the BCC had attacked him.
While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted the hope is Jackson will be back in time for Double or Nothing on May 28.
“He’s getting therapy, of course, for the injury, a partially torn biceps. Hopeful for Double or Nothing. The timetable he was given was 6-8 weeks, and that is enough time for Double or Nothing, but that’s not a guarantee, but it’s certainly a strong hope and obviously by watching the TV…it looks like The Young Bucks, Hangman Page, and Kenny Omega against The Blackpool Combat Club….looks like an eight-man tag team….could be happening at Double or Nothing. I don’t know that. It just feels like the setup.” Meltzer stated.
Meltzer added that it will be shortly thereafter if it’s not Double or Nothing.
