Beretta has not wrestled since AEW Double or Nothing on May 26th, when he was defeated by Orange Cassidy.
He continued to appear on AEW programming but was written off television after an angle in which he attempted to attack Cassidy after a tag match on the July 13th episode of Collision. Cassidy retaliated, hitting Beretta with a monkey wrench.
It is not known how long Beretta will be out of action as he recovers from the procedure.
