Switchblade Jay White Injury Situation In AEW Reportedly Looking Worse Not Better

While many have hoped to see "Switchblade" Jay White back on their television sets soon following the injury he suffered in late March, expect the opposite, according to new reports from Fightful Select.

When speaking to sources close to the situation, Fightful announced that not only is White out of action with a hand injury, which was publicly noted by the first-ever NJPW Grand Slam Champion after his match with Kevin Knight on March 29, but he's also dealing with a shoulder injury. No confirmation was mentioned on whether White will proceed with the surgery, as he's weighing his options on the matter as of this report. If he does go through with the surgery, expect the former AEW World Trios and ROH Six-Man Tag Team Champion to be out of action for the rest of the year.

During his last appearance on "AEW Collison" in early April, White fired a verbal warning shot toward Jon Moxley and his Death Riders, who cost him what could have been a triumphant run in this year's Owen Hart Cup Tournament. His Bang Bang Gang teammates all recently returned to AEW programming at AEW All In, though Colten Gunn was almost immediately sidelined once again.
