Skye Blue has been sidelined since July 20, when she sustained an ankle injury during her match against Hikaru Shida on “AEW Collision.” Although she made a cameo during the AEW All Out Zero Hour pre-show in September, Blue has yet to return to the ring, with no definitive timeline for her comeback. Recently, at a Chicago Wolves minor league hockey game alongside her boyfriend and fellow AEW star Kyle Fletcher, Blue shared a brief update on her recovery.
“It’s hard sitting at home and watching [Fletcher] still go to work and being like, ‘I feel fine. I can walk [so] I can wrestle, right?'” Blue said. “And I’m like, ‘Oh. No, I can’t.’ But we’re getting there. I just want to come back fully healthy so I can go crazy and do all my hardcore matches and be 100%.”
Blue was in the midst of her first run as a heel when she got injured, having formed an alliance with Julia Hart. Hart, like Blue, suffered an injury earlier this year, though her return has been hinted at in recent vignettes. While it remains uncertain when Blue will be back in action, the 25-year-old envisions a long future in wrestling, aspiring to compete until she’s 80.
“I love this so much,” Blue stated. “I want to do it until the day I die.”
Debuting with AEW in 2021, Blue has progressed from dark matches to pay-per-view spots. Although she has yet to capture a championship in the promotion, she has competed against top names in the division and secured victories against Kris Statlander, Queen Aminata, and Anna Jay.
