Bobby Lashley has been sidelined from action due to an injury.

The last time AEW fans saw The Almighty in action was at AEW Full Gear 2025 in November in Newark, New Jersey. He competed in the AEW National Title Casino Gauntlet match, which was ultimately won by Ricochet.

According to reports, Lashley suffered an injury during the Casino Gauntlet match and has been sidelined ever since. With his extended absence from television, speculation began circulating among fans regarding the status of his AEW contract and how much time remains on his current deal.

Bobby Lashley’s AEW Contract Reportedly Set To Get Extended Due To Injury Time

During a Self Made Session on February 23, Self Made Pro reported that Bobby Lashley signed a two-year contract with All Elite Wrestling when he joined the company in October 2024. However, AEW is expected to add injury time to the length of his contract.

Self Made Pro reported, “Bobby Lashley — I was told that Bobby signed a two-year deal. At the moment because he’s injured, so if anything, they would add time to his contract. But he was someone I was told had signed a two-year agreement.”

Lashley made his AEW debut on the October 30, 2024, edition of AEW Dynamite, where he reunited with MVP and Shelton Benjamin to form The Hurt Syndicate. Lashley and Benjamin later went on to become one-time AEW World Tag Team Championship holders last year.
