As noted before, Dalton Castle been out of action for AEW and Ring of Honor since this past July due to a head-related injury that was later revealed to actually have been a torn triceps injury.
A recent episode of the Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend podcast featured Castle as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Castle confirming that he had suffered a torn triceps injury.
“I tore my bicep. That was back in July. It was the last match I had. The guy I was wrestling, it was just a freak accident. It hurt. I was freaking out. The guy I was wrestling took a cheap shot at me or advantage of the situation. It sucks. I was supposed to go hiking the next day. I lost the match. I lost my hiking trip. Now, I spend every day in physical therapy, and on the weekends, I go antiquing.”
Castle also gave his thoughts about him not blaming his opponent for causing his injury.
“No, the injury wasn’t his fault. He just didn’t back down after it. We were friends, I thought we were friends, me and this guy. I was like, ‘Hey, I need a second.’ He’s like, ‘No, no timeouts.’ I don’t want to get into it. I try not to think about it too much. The time off sucks. I’m just focusing on enjoying the time off and working on getting better. Not watching wrestling and keeping my mind off it. Then, my friends will do something cool and I’ll have to watch it. Then I get sucked in and get excited. I recognize that I’m still very much hurt and I get angry. It’s this rollercoaster cycle of emotions. It’s real fun.”
Castle also gave his thoughts about him currently targeting a January of 2025 date for his potential in-ring return.
“We’re projecting end of the year. I’m thinking January, I’m back.”
