Original Story:

Our Bryan Alvarez has provided injury updates regarding Jon Moxley & Adam Cole following Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite Grand Slam. 

Alvarez posted on X that Moxley was in fact “hurt” during his match at Grand Slam, but is “OK,” while Cole was on his way to the hospital after landing awkwardly after jumping off the ramp during the Dynamite main event. 

Alvarez posted: 

Moxley was hurt in the Fenix match, hence the unplanned finish, but he’s OK. Cole is on his way to the hospital.

Moxley appeared to be injured during his International title defense against Rey Fenix at Grand Slam after taking a Black Fire Driver (sit-out Michinoku Driver variation). Moxley’s head appeared to be spiked into the mat, and it looked as though he was calling for referee Rick Knox to count the pin even though it was apparently not the planned finish to the match. Knox did not count to three even though Moxley did not kick out. Fenix then delivered a second Black Fire Driver, and that time Knox counted the pin. 

PWInsider reported that “backstage, the belief is Moxley may have suffered a concussion.”

Cole was apparently hurt during the Samoa Joe vs. MJF World title match where he did a run-in to help MJF retain the AEW World title. Cole jumped off the elevated ramp to the floor around ringside as he did his run-in.
