When All Elite Wrestling first launched in 2019, Darby Allin quickly became one of the stars to watch and he’s been featured consistently on AEW programming ever since he made his debut with the company. Darby Allin has become one of the most popular wrestlers on the AEW roster, and it doesn’t sound like fans should expect to see him jump ship at any point in the future.
Recently Darby Allin talked about his experience working in AEW on the Joe Chuckery Show while explaining why he has no interest in working elsewhere.
“I can’t say enough good things about working with Tony Khan. It baffles me that people can take it for granted. I don’t know if people realize how fortunate we are to be wrestling at such a high level with such an open-minded owner. What you see out there is 100% Darby Allin. Nobody tells me how to walk, talk, or act. It’s 100% me. To have that free reign to collaborate with Tony and create such good storylines leading to Wembley, you can’t say enough good things. I’m super stoked about everything and my whole growth with AEW, but them letting me be me.
I haven’t shied away from this, I tell Tony that I’m maybe the worst businessman in pro wrestling because there is never going to be a bidding war for Darby Allin. I love AEW so much, I’m not playing games. I’m not going to be like, ‘what if I went somewhere else?’ No, I’m just being real, Darby Allin is going to live and die in AEW.”
