The 22-year-old looks set to return to action in the near future.
Dante Martin has been absent from in-ring action since suffering a gruesome leg injury during the Reach for the Sky Ladder Match at ROH Supercard of Honor back in March earlier this year. ROH commentator Ian Riccaboni noted in July that Dante was ahead of schedule in his recovery, and it now appears as though a return to the ring is on the horizon.
Fightful Select are now reporting that Martin was recently spotted backstage at a recent AEW taping and is nearing a return from injury.

Dante makes up one half of Top Flight, alongside his real-life brother Darius. The pair have both been plagued by injuries throughout their tenure with AEW, including two lengthy absences for Darius, one of which stemmed from his involvement in a serious car accident.
During Dante’s absence, Darius has been active on Ring of Honor, where he’s competed as both a singles wrestler and alongside Action Andretti in tag team action.
As always, we’ll aim to provide any further updates on Dante Martin’s seemingly imminent return to AEW action as soon as we hear more.
