The former IWGP World Heavyweight Champion, Kota Ibushi, has suffered a major injury on AEW's Collision, which will keep him out of action for a while.
Last week, rumors emerged that Ibushi had suffered a major injury, forcing his match against Josh Alexander to be called off. Although Collision was taped earlier in the week, various reports and videos showed Ibushi being helped to the back following a spot in his match.
The injury occurred when Ibushi fell off the turnbuckle to the outside. Initially, the severity of the injury was unconfirmed, but Ibushi later revealed the news through a social media post.
I’ve only had serious injuries. This is a broken femur, and the broken bone is trying to break through the flesh.
