AEW’s Darius Martin out with leg injury, expected to miss significant time

Darius Martin is expected to be out of action for a “lengthy period” due to injury. 

According to a report from Fightful Select, the 22-year-old sustained a leg injury fairly recently. Although the nature of the injury is not currently known, he’s expected to miss a significant amount of time. 

This is the second time in 14 months he will have been sidelined for an extended period. In February of 2021, he suffered a torn ACL that required surgery. He wouldn’t return until the March 2, 2022 edition of AEW Dynamite. 

His last match was on the 4/15 AEW show from Garland, Texas. He teamed with his brother, the Hardys, and Frankie Kazarian on the show. They defeated the team of Private Party, The Blade, Angelico, and Max Caster in a match taped for Dark. 

His brother Dante teamed with Brock Anderson and Lee Moriarty on Wednesday’s edition of Dynamite and lost to the Blackpool Combat Club team of Bryan Danielson, Jon Moxley, and Wheeler Yuta.
