Injured AEW Star Ahead of Schedule in Recovery From an Injury

There was an injury update on one AEW during the ROH Death Before Dishonor pay-per-view event when Darius Martin and Action Andretti were working a pre-show match.

Ian Riccaboni shared an update on Dante Martin, who went down with an injury at the ROH Supercard of Honor event when he was wrestling in the Reach for the Sky ladder match. He injured himself while taking a destroyer from Penta El Zero Miedo off a ladder through multiple tables. He was rushed to the hospital after the event.

While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted because it went under the radar that Riccaboni said Martin was ahead of schedule in his recovery.

“By the way, one thing that Ian Riccaboni said on the Ring of Honor show is that Dante Martin is recovering. There’s the first word we’ve heard on TV about Dante Martin in forever. Dante Martin is ahead of schedule. That’s the only thing he said that’s good regarding his recovery. So he talked like, I don’t know about…again, I mean how much that was a brutal injury and Dante Martin’s big thing is his leaping ability and speed. And, that was the worst kind of, it, it was terrible. It’d be a terrible injury for anyone but even worse for a guy like him. So, hopefully, I don’t know that he can make a hundred percent, but if he can make 90%, that’s a miracle. And he’ll have a great career if he can get a 90% thing. It certainly sounded like he was on his way back. I don’t wanna say soon, but on his way back.”
