August 28th I had a hook stab into my arm and rip it open. For almost a month I’ve been dealing with loss of grip strength, loss of feeling/nerve damage, and wondering if this is even worth it anymore. If this is the end, we’re taking a pound of flesh with us. pic.twitter.com/A0xpLkX8zG

Before entering the ring, Cash Wheeler shared some information about the injury he sustained on AEW a month ago. Wheeler described the injury as something that horrified him and made him feel insecure. Cash added- “August 28th, I had a hook stab into my arm and ripped it open. For almost a month, I’ve been dealing with the loss of grip strength, loss of feeling/nerve damage, and wondering if this is even worth it anymore. But, if this is the end, we’re taking a pound of flesh with us.”
When FTR joined hands with MJF and formed The Pinnacle in AEW
The Pinnacle, which MJF leads, is one of the top stables in the industry right now. FTR joined them back in 2020, but unfortunately, Cash Wheeler couldn’t use the chance he earned by being part of the best heel stable in the wrestling world. Cash’s injury meant that the writers had to change their direction as they couldn’t do it without the presence of FTR.
Now that Cash Wheeler is back, fans can hope for better writing from AEW’s part as the duo is one of the world’s best tag teams. FTR can finally be part of serious storytelling as WWE never used the duo to its fullest. Joining The Pinnacle will only increase their popularity among the fans.
