Jay White, the leader of the Bang Bang Gang, has been absent since late March, sparking concerns about his health. According to a Fightful Select report, insiders reveal that White is struggling with shoulder injuries alongside a hand injury, which were publicly noted after his match against Kevin Knight on March 29. He is currently evaluating whether to undergo surgery, and if he does, the former AEW World Trios and ROH Six-Man Tag Team Champion could be sidelined for the rest of the year.
In his last appearance on AEW Collision in early April, White issued a stern warning to John Moxley and his Death Rider, making it clear he won’t miss any chance for revenge. He declared himself a “switchblade,” implying he’s a cut above the rest and possesses qualities no one else has.
Fan Take: This update is crucial for AEW fans as Jay White’s potential long-term absence could significantly impact storylines and tag team dynamics in the promotion. His aggressive style and intense rivalries bring a unique energy to AEW, and his return—or absence—will shape the future of their competitive landscape.
