Absent AEW Talent Backstage at 9/4 Dynamite Tapings

Powerhouse Hobbs was spotted backstage at the AEW Dynamite taping in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on September 4, according to a report from Fightful Select.

Hobbs has been sidelined with a leg injury since suffering a patellar tendon tear during his match against Jon Moxley on the April 24 edition of AEW Dynamite.

While it is unclear whether Hobbs is simply visiting or if he’s nearing an in-ring return, his presence backstage is sure to excite fans eager to see the powerhouse back in action. As of now, there has been no official word on Hobbs’ recovery status, but we’ll continue to monitor the situation for further updates.
