Miro Reveals Original Plans For His AEW Return

AEW

AEW star Miro has revealed the original plans for his return to the company.

On the June 1 edition of AEW Dynamite, the former TNT Champion made his return to the promotion since last November in a win over Johnny Elite.

Despite suffering a hamstring injury, Miro returned from action ahead of Full Gear 2021 to compete in the AEW World Title Eliminator Tournament and lost to Bryan Danielson in the finals at the pay-per-view.

Speaking with Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp, the AEW star revealed the original plans for his return.

He said:

“I feel great now. I was doing a little movie before, then I got my hamstring tweaked, we got the call, I had to fly in and do the Orange Cassidy match, I had this great opportunity for the world title. I took care of Orange Cassidy in a hurry, but I ripped my hamstring even further, and knowing I had to come back a week later to fight Bryan Danielson was maybe one of my biggest challenges so far in my career. Thankfully to Dr. Beau Hightower in New Mexico, he really got me up on my feet. I was barely walking and I had a week to prepare for that match. I was with him every day, a few hours a day, just to rehab the hamstring just to walk. A week later, it was okay. We had the Bryan match, and after that match, my hamstring was done. It was screaming, ‘I want to rest.’ That’s what happened, I needed some time off. I thought I was going to come back around January, that’s when we did those vignettes. Unfortunately, when you fall out of the wheel in AEW, our roster is so stacked with great guys and competitors, that I can’t be offended by it. I had a few acting gigs that I got taken care of. I had my time off, I loved my time doing that, but now I’m back and I want more than I had before.”

Miro took part in the AEW All-Atlantic Championship four-way match at the Forbidden Door pay-per-view, coming short to PAC who became the inaugural champion.
