There are a number of AEW stars who have been with the company since the beginning, and one of them happens to be Darby Allin. Throughout his run with the company Darby has managed to capture championship gold a few times as he’s a two time TNT Champion, and he captured the AEW World Tag Team Championship earlier this year with Sting.
Darby Allin has challenged for the AEW World Championship a few times, but so far he has yet to win the big one. However, Sting predicted during the AEW All In: Texas Countdown to On Sale event that Allin will win the belt in 2025.
“You, I’ve always known from day one, you are world championship caliber. I knew from the very beginning. Yeah, you had to come up some, and you’ve come up a ton in the last few years. But I knew that you would someday become the world heavyweight champion. Sometime in 2025, I am predicting this is the future AEW World Champion right here. Who knows? Maybe you’ll be world champion at Globe Life [Field], 2025, at All In.”
Recently Darby Allin spoke to Denise Salcedo of Instinct Culture about the prediction, and he explained why he thinks he’s the perfect spokesperson for AEW.
“When I think of being world champion, it represents what this company can do for somebody and I feel like there’s no better spokesperson for this company than me as an AEW original considering I was never supposed to be the guy. Through the freedom and just naturally being me, I’ve naturally just gotten over with people.
I think to be the guy holding the world championship and representing this company, it’s very very special thing that I want to represent. I think it’s just like a test to climb Mount Everest, come back down, and then walk into Global Life Field and rock. That’s like my whole memo.”
