AEW’s Eddie Kingston believed to have suffered broken leg

A broken leg is believed to be the injury that has forced Eddie Kingston out of action. Kingston was injured during his no rope Last Man Standing match against Gabe Kidd at NJPW Strong Resurgence last weekend. Kidd defeated Kingston in the match to win the NJPW Strong Openweight Championship. At the end of the bout, there was a spot where Kingston got hurt when his leg hit the guardrail while being suplexed through a table. Kingston was still able to take part in a post-match angle where he was confronted by Jack Perry and laid out by The Young Bucks. Kingston was supposed to be part of Team AEW at Double or Nothing, teaming with Bryan Danielson & FTR in an Anarchy in the Arena match against The Young Bucks, Perry & Kazuchika Okada. Because of his injury, Kingston has been removed from Double or Nothing and replaced by Darby Allin. The pay-per-view is taking place on Sunday, May 26. In the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reports that it’s believed Kingston suffered a broken leg at Resurge
