Adam Cole's sudden withdrawal from his scheduled match at All In came as a surprise to many.

Speaking on the All In: Texas media scrum post show, Tony Khan mentioned that the development had happened suddenly. He said that these kinds of medical issues were unpredictable. He also noted that it was unclear when Adam would return to AEW.

"But somewhere between late last night and earlier this morning, we talked, and he wasn’t feeling well. And that’s the unpredictable nature of some of these kinds of injuries, and I think it’s important that Adam Cole takes time to get right.
