"Could have ended his career," "Is he okay?" - Fans react to scary botch involving House of Black member at AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door III

Fans are worried about a House of Black member after he was involved in a horrific botch. The star being discussed is Brody King. He and Malakai Black were involved in tag team action as their third member, Buddy Matthews, is seemingly written off TV.

Forbidden Door III had a strong Zero Hour ahead of the main event, and fans saw jaw-dropping action on the show. One match that caught everyone's attention was a Four-Way tag team match, where The House of Black collided with Tomohiro Ishii and Kyle O'Reilly, Roderick Strong and Gabriel Kidd, and Private Party.

The bout had jam-packed action, and every star showcased their skills. While The House of Black was in perfect sync, the tension between Roderick and Kidd rose as the match proceeded.

In one instance, Tomohiro Ishii tried to perform Brainbuster on Brody King. However, the NJPW legend failed to fully elevate the star and created an awkward angle, resulting in an uneasy landing on Brody's head. The star was seemingly fine as he finished the rest of the match and picked up the victory for his team.

Fans on social media were worried about the 37-year-old after a horrific brainbuster. Many also speculated if his career was over.

Take a look at some of the reactions below:

Reason for House of Black member's absence revealed

Buddy Matthews was attacked by The Patriarchy a few weeks back on AEW Collision, leaving just two active wrestlers of the faction.

Later, reports emerged of him written off TV due to personal reasons as he wanted to attend a ceremony with Rhea Ripley in Australia. Last week, Rhea and Buddy got married.

It will be interesting to see what is next for the Malakai Black-led faction, as Buddy and Julia Hart are yet to return to AEW.
