It’s been two months since AEW and ROH fans last saw Nick Wayne in a wrestling ring, and according to an AEW doctor, that timeline will now be extended even further.
On Saturday’s edition of **AEW Collision**, backstage interviewer Renee Paquette caught up with Wayne as he underwent an examination for his broken foot. Wayne previously claimed to have sustained the injury during a physical encounter with Christian Cage on **AEW Dynamite** in August.
Initially, Wayne was optimistic about the medical evaluation. “I’m great,” Wayne told Paquette as he sat beside Kip Sabian and Mother Wayne. “As a matter of fact, I couldn’t be better. I’m sitting here right now getting cleared. I should be back in the ring in no time. You should be lucky I’m not in the ring right now. Ain’t that right, doc? Tell them. Tell them how great I’m healing.”
However, according to the doctor, Wayne’s foot was still swollen and tender over the site of the fracture. This meant he would be out of action for at least another six to eight weeks.
Unhappy with the news, Wayne limped away stating that he would find a “real” doctor for another examination. Fans will be watching closely to see when he makes his anticipated return to the ring.
