Eddie Kingston is currently sidelined after undergoing surgery in July for a serious leg injury, which could potentially keep him out of action for up to ten months. The AEW star recently appeared on The DAVINci Report to give fans an update on his recovery process.
Kingston, known for his gritty in-ring style, shared the details of his injury: “Just healing up from a fracture of my tibia, strain on my meniscus, and I had to get my ACL replaced. A lot of fun.”
Despite the long road to recovery, Kingston remains optimistic, though he admitted the challenges of dealing with insurance have been frustrating: “Insurance is a fraud, folks. Just throwing that out there.”
The AEW star also mentioned that he’s starting to regain mobility: “I can walk now, a little bit. I can walk, I can lift weights. I can do squats a little bit, not too low. Now it’s at the point of, ‘Let’s hurry this up. Let’s get going.'”
Although Kingston made a brief appearance on the August 17 episode of AEW Collision to address Bryan Danielson ahead of AEW All In, his in-ring return remains uncertain as he continues his rehabilitation.
Ringside News wishes Eddie the best as he works his way back to full strength.
