AEW announced on Friday that Rey Fenix is injured and unable to compete in the 9-man Casino Ladder Match at Double or Nothing.
The injury likely occurred during this week’s Dynamite when he did a flip out of the ring and hit the ground back-first after several failed to catch him.
As a result, Joey Janela will replace Fenix in the match. A mystery spot still remains open until the match occurs.
