Wednesday’s episode of AEW Dynamite took place from the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, GA and the episode featured the first ever cage match in the history of All Elite Wrestling.
Cody Rhodes defeated Wardlow when he hit a moonsault from the top of the cage, but unfortunately for Cody he fractured his big toe in the process.
Rhodes announced the injury via Instagram, but he clarified that he is currently cleared to wrestle when he posted the following:
“Long way down…” – small fracture in my big toe, but I’m on a treatment plan with @docwholifts_1 & CLEARED for action. @allelitewrestling @aewontnt #aew”
As first reported by @CodyRhodes on his IG account https://t.co/KR72d2zpot And confirmed by @DocSampson13. Due to Cody’s foot hitting the mat after landing the moonsault, he has a: Non-displaced fracture of distal phalanx R great toe.
His status: Cleared for action as tolerated.— All Elite Wrestling (@AEWrestling) February 22, 2020
With that moonsalt off the top of the steel cage there could have been worse injuries. https://t.co/QVvBNKFmRH
