Eddie Kingston: I Have No Ill Will Towards Gabe Kidd For The Injury, I Have Ill Will Because He’s A Piece Of Shit Person
Eddie Kingston was out of action from May 2024 to September 2025 after suffering a leg injury that required surgery.
The injury occurred at the hands of Gabe Kidd, who suplexed Eddie to the outside and Eddie’s leg hit the guardrail.
Speaking to Renee Paquette on Close Up, Eddie was asked if there is any resentment towards Gabe over the injury.
“I don’t like Gabe to begin with. That just added more to it. I’m not mad that he injured me because I would have done it to him. What do you think I was trying to do in that match? I get it. This is not ballet, folks. I don’t like Gabe anyway. It just adds more fuel to the fire. Now, here comes the smack, and it’s a little bit harder for those 16 months. Here comes that slap to the face sideways that I like to do because I really don’t like the person. When I aim for the bridge of the nose, because once you break the nose, eyes get watery, they can’t see, you hit them with a three-piece and a soda. No, I have no ill will for the injury. I have ill will because I think he’s a piece of shit person and I want to fuck him up for it. Other than that, no,” he said.
Eddie Kingston returned to the ring at AEW All Out, defeating Big Bill.
