Unfortunate Update On Bobby Lashley’s AEW Future

Bobby Lashley’s injury setback and recent updates about it have raised questions about his return.

Bobby Lashley, who was a major star in WWE, joined AEW in 2024 and was booked as a near-unbeatable powerhouse in the Tony Khan-led promotion.

Lashley’s last AEW match was on the November 11th, 2025 episode of Dynamite against Ricochet. In December, it was announced that Lashley suffered an injury and would be out for a substantial period.

No Clarity On Bobby Lashley’s Injury or Return Date

Sean Ross Sapp discussed Lashley’s injury in a recent Fightful Select Q & A. Fans have long been wondering about the details of Lashley’s injury and return, but no medical updates have been reported.

In the discussion, it was explained that earlier, a shorter absence was expected from the injury, and Sapp was told that Lashley would not miss much time.

There are no clear updates on the nature of the injury, where it happened, or if there were any setbacks during recovery. Until new information comes out, it is clear that Bobby Lashley won’t be returning to AEW television anytime soon.
