Jay White Breaks Social Media Silence After Seven-Month Hiatus With Cryptic Post
“Ready?” was the sole message posted by AEW’s “Switchblade“ Jay White on Thursday afternoon, marking his first activity on X (formerly Twitter) in seven months and fueling speculation about a potential return to action. The post quickly garnered over 600 replies from fans eager for updates on the injured star.
White’s social media return comes as he continues to recover from multiple injuries sustained as March 2025. He was initially sidelined following a match against Kevin Knight on “AEW Collision” and subsequently reported to have suffered a hand injury requiring surgery. Later reports indicated a developing shoulder injury, though whether surgery was needed for that ailment remained unclear. White’s absence forced him to withdraw from the 2025 Men’s Owen Hart Foundation Tournament, with Knight taking his place.
His last post prior to Thursday’s message was a winking gif reply to a fan in July,hoping he would win a singles championship in AEW. Before that, White had been inactive on the platform since March. White, alongside Juice Robinson, competes under the AEW-ROH banner, where Knight is a former AEW world Trios and ROH Six-Man Tag Team Champion. Robinson himself recently returned to the ring in July after recovering from a spine injury.
The one-word post has ignited anticipation among fans regarding White’s recovery and potential in-ring return, though the timing and nature of that return remain unknown.
