New details has emerged regarding when swerve Strickland might make his return to All Elite Wrestling. Strickland has been sidelined since August after undergoing a surgery to repair a torn meniscus, an injury he had reportedly been working with since his time in WWE.
According to new information from Fightful Select the hope within AEW as of this past weekend is that Strickland could be ready for a “winter return” to in-ring action, if rehab stays on track.
Strickland last wrestled at AEW/NJPW Forbidden Door 2025, where he lost an AEW Unified Championship match to Kazuchika Okada.
