It is unfortunately now a guarantee that a new TNT Champion will be crowned Saturday afternoon at AEW All In Texas.

Less than two hours before the show was set to go live from Arlington on pay-per-view, AEW President Tony Khan took to social media to announce that Adam Cole will not be medically cleared to compete in time to defend his title against Kyle Fletcher.

Khan did not get into the specifics of Cole's situation, but said that he personally asked him to take some time off to make sure that he is 100 percent whenever he is ready to get back into the ring. As a result, Adam Cole has now been forced to relinquish the TNT Championship.

Kyle Fletcher will now compete in a Fatal 4-Way Match to crown a new TNT Champion. He will face off against Daniel Garcia, Sammy Guevara and Dustin Rhodes.

AEW All In Texas goes live at 3pm ET (12 p.m. PT) on Amazon Prime Video, Triller TV PPV (Internationally), PPV.com, YouTube TV and Fubo.
