Popular AEW Star Reportedly Dealing With A Shoulder Injury

During last night’s New Year’s Smash episode of AEW Dynamite, Luchasaurus of Jurassic Express appeared with a large wrap on his shoulder. He was attacked by Toa Liona during the National Championship Match between Ricochet and Jack Perry and was sent backstage following the attack.

After Ricochet retained the title with assistance from Bishop Kaun, Liona brought Luchasaurus back out to the stage and launched a brutal attack on him. He repeatedly slammed a barricade onto Luchasaurus’ injured shoulder, while Kaun delivered multiple chair shots to the same area. Security officials attempted to intervene and rescue Luchasaurus, but Liona and Kaun took them out, even slamming one of the security personnel onto the injured wrestler’s arm.

According to Fightful Select, Luchasaurus’ injury is legitimate, but there is still no word on whether he will require surgery. Updates will be provided as they become available.
