Juice Robinson Pulled From AEW Continental Classic, Replacement Revealed

Juice Robinson has been officially pulled from All Elite Wrestling's Continental Classic tournament.

AEW CEO Tony Khan announced on Tuesday that Robinson cannot compete due to injury. Juice will be replaced in the Continental Classic by Komander.

Khan tweeted: "Due to injury, Juice Robinson cannot complete the #AEWContinentalClassic. Aiming to prove that he can hang with the world’s very best, high flying rising star @KomandercrMX will join the field as Gold League first alternate, + the upcoming schedule will be adjusted accordingly."

Robinson suffered an injury during his Continental Classic match against Will Ospreay on the November 27 taping of Collision. Robinson reportedly feared the injury was a broken foot but Fightful Select has reported the injury is actually a broken fibula. By the weekend, AEW knew it would be unlikely that Robinson could wrestle for the rest of the Continental Classic.

Juice Robinson was part of the Gold League in the Continental Classic. Along with Komander, the other participants in the block are Will Ospreay, Darby Allin, Claudio Castagnoli, Brody King, and Ricochet.
