AEW wrestler Killswitch, formerly known as Luchasaurus, has been absent from in-ring competition since AEW All In: London 2024, where he played a key role in helping Christian Cage win the Casino Gauntlet Match. However, his extended absence wasn’t just storyline-related—he reportedly suffered a serious medical emergency due to a compromised immune system and sleep apnea.
Killswitch’s Health Issues & AEW Absence
Following his health scare, Killswitch has not been seen alongside his faction, The Patriarchy. While AEW has remained silent about his status, a new report from Fightful Select suggests that the former TNT Champion was backstage at AEW Revolution and was ready to be used in some capacity.
Was Killswitch Part of an Alternate Ending at AEW Revolution?
Rumors began circulating that AEW had planned an “alternate ending” for AEW Revolution, which could have involved Killswitch. Fightful Select addressed the speculation, stating:
“Earlier this week, there were rumors that there was an ‘alternate ending’ planned for AEW Revolution. While we couldn’t confirm that, Fightful Select was told that Luchasaurus aka Killswitch was backstage at the show.”
The report also suggested that there were discussions about Killswitch possibly being involved in the segment featuring Christian Cage, Adam Copeland, and Jon Moxley. However, when pressed for more details, sources went quiet.
Is Killswitch Cleared to Wrestle?
Despite his presence at AEW Revolution, there is still no confirmation that Killswitch has been medically cleared for in-ring action. His last official match was in August 2024, meaning he has been out of action for several months.
Given his serious health issues, AEW is likely being cautious before allowing him to return. However, his backstage presence at Revolution suggests that he could be gearing up for a comeback soon.
What’s Next for Killswitch & The Patriarchy?
With Christian Cage continuing his storyline feud with Adam Copeland and Jon Moxley, Killswitch’s return could significantly impact AEW’s landscape. If and when he returns, it remains to be seen whether he will resume his role as Christian’s enforcer or if AEW has new plans for him.
For now, Killswitch’s health remains the top priority, and fans will have to wait for further updates regarding his potential AEW comeback.
