Backstage News On Absent AEW Stars

:aew:

Isiah Kassidy of Private Party is also injured, joining his tag team partner Marq Quen on the shelf and explaining his recent absence from AEW and ROH programming, according to PWInsider.

Kassidy is described as “banged up and hurt as well.” Quen’s injury had already been reported, but Kassidy’s status had not previously been confirmed despite his absence from Dynamite, Collision, and Ring of Honor in any singles capacity.

Private Party returned to AEW television earlier this year after over a year away following their AEW World Tag Team Championship loss to The Hurt Syndicate in 2025. Their comeback saw them enter a number one contenders triple threat match alongside The Young Bucks and The Rascalz, but they came up short. They have not competed in a tag team match since March.

The duo’s return had quieted speculation about their contractual statuses and reported WWE interest, but both men are now sidelined once again.
