We aren't sick, hurt or knocked out (3-8)

I believe the answer is:

awe-stricken

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'knocked out' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'we aren't sick hurt' is the wordplay.
'hurt' is an anagram indicator.
'we'+'arent'+'sick'='wearentsick'
'wearentsick' with letters rearranged gives 'AWE-STRICKEN'.

'or' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
