During AEW’s WrestleDream pay-per-view last night, Darby Allin seemingly sustained an injury.
Following the event, the ex-TNT Champion appeared at the post-show press gathering with his arm in a sling. Allin mentioned that he’d be undergoing X-rays after completing his media responsibilities to determine the severity of his injury.
As of now, the specifics regarding the nature and extent of Allin’s injury remain undisclosed.
The intense WrestleDream main event pitted Allin against Christian Cage, with both wrestlers taking substantial hits. Darby, in particular, took some brutal hits, including being thrown onto the exposed ring boards and metal steps multiple times. The exact moment the injury transpired is yet unclear.
During the main event, Cage emerged victorious over Allin in their two-out-of-three falls match. While Allin managed to clinch the initial fall, he lost the subsequent one after a significant bump, leading to a countout. In a surprising twist, Nick Wayne, Allin’s mentee, sided against him, enabling Cage to triumph and retain the TNT Championship.
Following the match, a significant highlight was the debut of Adam Copeland, previously known as Edge. He made his entrance, intervening to assist both Allin and Sting against the combined threats of Cage, Wayne, and Luchasaurus.
