Taz Confirms Need for Total Knee Replacement Surgery

Taz shared some personal news with fans following the storyline announcement that he was ambushed in a parking lot during the AEW Dynamite Five-Year Anniversary show.

Taking to social media platform X/Twitter, Taz revealed that he would be stepping away from commentary for a while due to an upcoming total knee replacement surgery. He thanked his fans for their support and promised to update them down the road when he is on the mend.

“Unfortunately, I will be out for awhile. I’ll be having total knee replacement surgery very soon. Talk to you guys down the road.”

Fans can expect Taz to be out of action for a significant period, as recovery from total knee replacement surgery typically takes several months. According to orthopedic experts, the initial recovery phase lasts about 6 to 12 weeks, during which physical therapy and rehabilitation are crucial to restoring strength and mobility. However, for someone as active as Taz, it may take up to 3 to 6 months, or even longer, to regain full mobility.

The timeline for Taz’s return will depend on how well his recovery progresses, but given the long rehabilitation associated with this surgery, AEW fans will likely have to wait several months before seeing him back in his full capacity. Ringside News will keep you posted if any additional updates or information becomes available.
