As noted, Santana suffered some sort of knee/leg injury during the Blood and Guts match on 6/29 AEW Dynamite. While on Busted Open Radio, AEW President Tony Khan gave an update on Santana’s injury.
“Obviously, it’s a very dangerous match, and going into it, we knew injuries are a possibility,” Khan said. “I think it could be a relatively long injury, so it could be a while that Santana is out, but we’re here for him in whatever he needs … It’s unfortunate that the Blood and Guts match does come with injuries, and it was a knee injury that he suffered, and hopefully he’ll be back relatively soon.”
Santana and Ortiz have been with AEW since All Out 2019, when they made their debut following a ladder match for the AAA World Tag Team Championships, beating up both the Lucha Brothers and the Young Bucks. The pair have yet to find success in terms of AEW championship gold, but have been a part of the main event of Double or Nothing in both 2020 and 2021.
