Nigel McGuinness injured on AEW Collision, may miss Continental Cup
Summary

Nigel McGuinness sustained an injury during his match against Katsuyori Shibata on AEW Collision, raising concerns about his participation in the Continental Cup tournament. Announcers hinted at the injury's impact, and a formal announcement is expected during a Monday YouTube special. If McGuinness cannot compete, AEW may adjust the tournament format, potentially leaving one participant with a bye. This injury may also sideline him from the upcoming ROH Death Before Dishonor event, where he was set to challenge Lee Moriarty for the ROH Pure Championship, a loss in which would prevent him from competing in Ring of Honor again.
