Trent Beretta recently had to sit on the sidelines for four months after suffering a partially torn pec, an injury that has plagued his career. Sadly now, after only wrestling four matches since returning to the ring for AEW, he is again hurt and currently recovering from neck fusion surgery.
Thankfully though, he would state on Twitter that the procedure “went well.” It isn’t known whether it was a single incident or a build of up wear and tear that resulted in the serious operation being required, but regardless he is likely to be away from the ring for some time.
Beretta was one of the first wrestlers signed with AEW along with tag partner Chuck Taylor. He became known to most wrestling fans when signing with WWE in 2007 before debuted as part of WWE’s version of ECW in 2009 alongside Caylen Croft as a tag team. Once Croft was let go by the company, Beretta would become a singles wrestler on SmackDown, mainly used in lower card feuds and as an enhancement talent. He’d end up on NXT in 2012 before suffering a torn triceps and being released not long after recovering and making his comeback.
Since departing WWE, he has wrestled for TNA, ROH and became a New Japan regular. In the process, he significantly increased his value, and when he signed with AEW, it was considered a risk for him because he had a good spot in New Japan.
