Tony Khan Confirms Willow Nightingale Is Dealing With A Broken Hand, Still Plans To Wrestle At AEW All In

Tony Khan confirms a big injury to Willow Nightingale.

This week’s episode of AEW Dynamite featured a segment where Mercedes Mone attacked Willow Nightingale and specifically targeted her left hand. After the conclusion of the show, Bryan Alvarez of F4WOnline reported that Nightingale’s hand injury is legitimate.

During the AEW All In media call, Tony Khan confirmed the report by revealing that Nightingale is dealing with a broken hand. Still, the ‘Babe With The Power’ fully intends on wrestling Mone at All In.

“That’s true. Willow’s hand is injured. It was a late change. Sometimes, when you’re going into wrestling tapings and shows, you have ideas and an outline. You come in and you have something happen like that, with Willow’s hand being broken on the day you’re filming Dynamite and Collision, that’s a major change. The team did a great job in the situations yesterday. I had plans for Willow yesterday that I had to change based on the injury. It is the case that Willow is injured and will be wrestling with the injury. Expect to see Willow Nightingale at AEW All In. Yes, she has a hand injury but she really wants to wrestle Mercedes and she really wants to wrestle at All In and defend that world championship. I know Willow Nightingale is a fighter, she’s proved by holding multiple championships in AEW that she’s a fighting champion.”

Elsewhere in the call, Khan said this year’s All In event will be AEW’s biggest pay-per-view on HBO Max. Check out his full comments by clicking here.
