Orange Cassidy Update (Patreon)

AEW could be getting one of their biggest babyfaces back sooner than later.

Orange Cassidy has been sidelined for a number of months after sustaining what was suspected to be a torn labrum. He was injured in March and has missed the last five months of action, which affected creative throughout the spring. 

BodySlam.net reported this morning that he is cleared, which lined up with much of what Fightful Select has heard when asking about injury updates.

Fightful Select has learned that Orange Cassidy is on the mend, and we were told he’ll be back “sooner than later,” when we asked for an update. He’s not expected to be out through the end of the year like many other injuries, unless there’s a big setback.

Orange Cassidy has been backstage at numerous events recently and underwent shoulder surgery shortly after the injury.

AEW has lost Swerve Strickland and Will Ospreay this week due to injury.
