El Hijo del Vikingo Cleared for In-Ring Action After Injury

Mexican wrestler El Hijo del Vikingo, who has received tons attention in the professional wrestling world, has been sidelined due to a knee injury. However, it appears he has now been cleared for in-ring action.

On February 17, 2024, Vikingo partnered with Psycho Clown and Wotan at AULL Rencor Extremo but suffered a loss against Negocio Traumado. The match was stopped due to an injury to Vikingo’s right knee.

It was confirmed that he underwent the surgery successfully, and he started rehabbing almost immediately afterwards. He had to relinquish the AAA Mega Championship due to injury as well.

After spending more than seven months recovering from a torn meniscus, former AAA Mega Champion El Hijo del Vikingo has received medical clearance to return to action. According to a report from The Wrestling Observer, the high-flying luchador is planning to make his in-ring comeback on September 27.

”El Hijo del Vikingo is now targeting 9/27 for his return to the ring after knee surgery.”

Lucha Libre AAA has resumed featuring Vikingo in their promotional campaigns, with his image appearing on posters for their September 29 event, as well as a three-date tour of Spain scheduled for November.

Vikingo’s last appearance for an AEW-related promotion was in January 2024, when he competed at a Ring of Honor TV taping alongside Pentagon el Zero Miedo. Therefore, we will have to wait and see how Vikingo will fare once he returns to in-ring action this month.
