Kyle Fletcher is no longer the TNT Champion after relinquishing the AEW title due to injury.
Prior to the April 8 episode of Dynamite, Tony Khan announced that Fletcher would be out for months, meaning that he is unable to defend his TNT Championship. Fletcher last competed on the March 28 episode of Collision, but was seen hobbling during the match. No details on the injury have been provided at the time of writing.
Fletcher won the TNT Championship on the February 11 episode of Dynamite, defeating Tommaso Coampa after the former WWE star won the title in his debut match a few weeks prior.
