Current reigning ROH World Champion and one-half of the AEW World Tag Team Champions, Bandido, has been riding an incredible wave of momentum in AEW/ROH since returning to the ring full-time this February.

Bandido suffered a wrist injury during a match with Konosuke Takeshita on Collision back on June 14th, 2024. He made his return at Final Battle that year in December, only to suffer a concussion that halted his return until early 2025.

The champ would speak with Hayley Miller of Vice as they touched a bit on Bandido's road to recovery and how his career has skyrocketed upon returning.

Bandido has been doing some amazing work to get more viewers on Ring of Honor, alongside fellow stars like Athena, Lee Moriarty, and many more. Fans are excited to see who he defends his title against next.

On top of that, Bandido is also going to mix it up with AEW's stacked tag team division now that he and Brody King (Brodido) reign as the champions.
