Possible Injury Gabe Kidd Suffered During AEW Dynasty Match

Gabe Kidd being pulled from the AEW Dynasty trios title match was already a major moment, but now a new update is shedding light on what injury he may have suffered.

AEW Dynasty 2026 took place inside Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia, where Clark Connors, David Finlay, and Gabe Kidd defended the AEW Trios Championships against Orange Cassidy, Roderick Strong, and mystery partner Kyle O’Reilly. The match ended with new champions crowned and O’Reilly making a big return, but the situation involving Kidd quickly became one of the biggest talking points from the show.

During the match, Kidd had to be taken to the back by AEW medical staff after appearing to get hurt. The bout continued without him under an adjusted plan, and questions immediately started about what kind of injury he may have suffered during the title defense. Now, a new update has added more clarity — or at least more concern — about what happened.

Wrestling Observer’s Dave Meltzer shared what he had heard about Kidd’s condition following the incident, offering a brief but concerning note about the possible injury involved.

“Feared dislocated shoulder.”

Shoulder injuries can be serious setbacks for wrestlers, particularly if they involve dislocations that require time off to heal and recover. As of now, there has been no official confirmation from AEW about the exact nature of Kidd’s injury, but this points to a potentially significant issue that could affect his availability moving forward.

Ringside News will continue to provide additional updates as information becomes available.
