Adam Cole: There’s No Timetable For Kyle O’Reilly’s Return, He’s Getting Better Every Week

Adam Cole can’t wait until Kyle O’Reilly returns, but he says there’s no timetable. 

Adam Cole can’t wait until Kyle O’Reilly returns, but he says there’s no timetable. 

O’Reilly has been out of action since June 2022. He had neck fusion surgery in September 2022 and later said he was dealing with a post-surgical issue. In May 2023, Cole said that O’Reilly was on the right track, as he was making great progress.

Speaking with Inside The Ropes, Cole was asked for an update about O’Reilly. He stated that O’Reilly has been pushing forward, but there’s no timetable for his return.

“All I can say is Kyle is continuing to push forward. This has been a very long and very, very tough process for him, but he’s a warrior. There’s nothing that Kyle loves more than pro wrestling, and he’s doing everything that he can to make sure he’s getting healthy and getting back to a point where he can return to the ring. Obviously, there’s still no timetable on when he’s gonna be able to come back, but Kyle is progressing. He’s getting better every single week. Just like the rest of the world, I can’t wait until Kyle O’Reilly gets back. I miss him so much,” Cole said.

It is not known when O’Reilly will return to AEW TV. Fightful will provide more information as it becomes available.
