# Dustin Rhodes Expected AEW Return Date Revealed

A currently injured AEW star has shared an update on their return to in-ring action, confirming they’ll be sidelined for a few months yet.

Dustin Rhodes recently underwent double knee replacement surgery, with his last in-ring appearance being at the end of July.

Recently, Rhodes confirmed that his [rehab from surgery](https://wrestletalk.com/news/dustin-rhodes-aew-injury-update/) is going well, with the former TNT Champion remaining positive about an in-ring return.

While he didn’t share a potential date for that return at the time, Rhodes has now provided an indication as to when fans can expect to see him back in AEW.

In a recent post on [Twitter](https://x.com/dustinrhodes/status/1986609031205507503), Rhodes answered a fan question enquiring about his knees, with the AEW star hinting at a March 2026 return, responding:

*“They still hurt a bit, especially in the mornings. I do have a good ways to go. Remember, I am 56 and pushing hard; just takes time. Not young anymore.*

*“Prob March I should be ready to kill everyone lol. Maybe, I am pushing hard, my man.”*

At the time of his injury, Rhodes held the ROH World Tag Team and World Six-Man Tag Team Championship.

With Sammy Guevara having joined Rush as a member of La Faccion Ingobernable, The Spanish God continues as ROH World Tag Team Champion.

The Sons of Texas (Rhodes, Marshall Von Erich & Ross Von Erich) vacated the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship in August, with Shane Taylor Promotions becoming new champions later that month.

WrestleTalk wishes Dustin Rhodes well in his ongoing rehabilitation from surgery.
