The All Elite Wrestling roster has changed quite a bit since the company first launched in 2019, but there are still a number of wrestlers in AEW who have been with the company since the beginning.
Darby Allin has been working his way through the ranks over the last few years and so far he’s managed to capture the TNT Championship and the AEW World Tag Team Championship. More recently Darby has been focused on chasing the AEW World Championship which would surely take his career to the next level.
Cody Rhodes knows a thing or two about working with Darby Allin and he answered with confidence when he was asked if Darby could be the face of AEW during an interview with YoJoshMartinez.
“The answer is a guaranteed ‘yes.’ But don’t let Darby fool you, he was never insecure and he was never not confident. Darby is almost overconfident. Absolutely, 100%, could potentially be the person, but that spot is available to far more people than we think.
In every company, everyone thinks it’s about, ‘Oh, it’s the politics, it’s about who you know.’ There’s a degree of that in everything, sure, but it’s so much more fair than you think.”
“He certainly shouldn’t be remotely in doubt on whether he could do that or not, but also the stupid climbing mountains and getting hit by buses, you can’t be the face of the company if you’re not relied upon. You can’t wrestle anybody if you’re in a body cast, so that’s dumb … but I say that with love.”
