Matt Cardona reportedly came out of GCW Downward Spiral the worse for wear.
At the event on May 28, Cardona defeated Blake Christian in a singles match. But according to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, the reigning NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion injured his arm while he was catching a diving Blake Christian during the bout.
Johnson noted that there’s some concern that Cardona suffered a bicep tear of some sort. After the show, he canceled a planned appearance regarding an NFT release’ instead, he’s going home to get a diagnosis for his injury.
Cardona also wrestled at Wrestling REVOLVER’s Vegas Vacation show on Saturday; he lost the IMPACT Digital Media Championship to Rich Swann.
Update: Cardona tweeted about the injury after the match; he stated that he hurt his arm, and he thinks he tore his bicep. He then confirmed that he’s having it checked out.
