Aiming to prove that he can hang with the world’s very best, high flying rising star @KomandercrMX will join the field as Gold League first alternate, + the upcoming schedule will be adjusted accordingly.

Robinson faced off with Will Ospreay on Saturday’s AEW Collision in the first round of the Gold League, however, it was reported afterwards that Robinson had suffered an injury in the bout.

Dave Meltzer would then note on Wrestling Observer Radio that Robinson was “fearing a broken foot”, with the AEW star being spotted on crutches whilst attending WrestleCade over the weekend.
