Chris Jericho suffered a legitimate elbow injury during the Blood And Guts match on Dynamite last week and he was seen wearing a brace on this week’s episode of the show.
The latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter provides some update on his condition and reveals how long the former AEW champion will need to get cleared.
At first it was speculated that Chris might have fractured his elbow during the big ending spot where the former WWE star fell off the cage.
However, the report revealed that Jericho suffered a dislocated elbow during his fall off the cage and he is expected to stay out of action for 4 to 6 weeks.
This timeline is interesting because MJF has challenged Inner Circle for a Stadium Stampede match at the upcoming Double Or Nothing event on May 30.
However, if the reports are correct then it means that Chris Jericho will not be cleared in time for the match and he won’t be able to compete in the bout.
So it will be interesting to see how AEW tackles this problem and if they postpone the teased match to a later date or find a different solution for it.
