Top AEW Star Confirms Injury, The Return Of AEW Fyter Fest Announced, News On Swerve Strickland & AEW Dynasty 2025
Jay White confirmed on this week’s episode of AEW Collision that he suffered a broken hand, forcing him to withdraw from the Owen Hart Foundation Men’s Tournament. The injury followed an attack by the Death Riders, as announced on AEW Dynamite. Kevin Knight has taken White’s place in the tournament.
In a message to the Death Riders, White warned that their actions have only given him time to prepare, and he promised to remind everyone why he is “The Switchblade” when he returns.
Jay White can no longer compete in the #OwenHartCup due to injury at the hands of The Death Riders, but “Switchblade” considers that a gift!

All Elite Wrestling is currently in Philadelphia for AEW Dynasty 2025, and Swerve Strickland made an appearance at the Philadelphia 76ers home game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He served as the bell ringer before the game and humorously “finished” the night with the same stats as Joel Embiid and Paul George — a playful nod to the fact that neither played in the game.
