Tony Schiavone is on the mend.
AEW broadcaster Tony Schiavone is featured on AEW programming, both on commentary and in interviews. However, he has been dealing with a dental issue recently.
Speaking on his What Happened When podcast, Tony Schiavone noted that he had a broken tooth, and he had to get it pulled.
“I’m doing okay. It’s kind of been a rough 2025 for an old guy. The older you get, the more things happen. I do want to advise everyone that I had a broken tooth, and I had to get it pulled, and I’m getting an implant in. I just had my, after spending a month with these months stuck up in my chin or my jawline, they finally healed, and now they put the post in. It’s swollen right now. I’ve had this flipper in, and it’s really uncomfortable now. I’ve been able to get away with it on TV. I’m not so sure I can get away with it this week, with the flipper. I’m not so sure how great it’s going to sound. I may have a lisp," Schiavone said.
Later in the podcast, Schiavone was asked to comment on how he broke his tooth, and he said that he bit into a KIND bar.
"I bit into a Kind bar, and it broke. A Kind bar, that’s how. It was not kind to me. I will never eat a Kind bar again," Schiavone said.
Fightful wishes Schiavone well in his recovery, and we will provide more information as it becomes available.
Fightful will have coverage of AEW Dynamite as it airs on March 5th, as well as a post-show podcast on our YouTube channel.
