Samoa Joe To Defend AEW TNT Title Against Darby Allin On 1/4 AEW Dynamite
Samoa Joe has his next challenger.
Samoa Joe will defend the AEW TNT Championship against Darby Allin on the January 4 episode of AEW Dynamite. Tony Khan made the match official on Thursday afternoon.
Darby attacked Joe with his skateboard at the end of Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite after Joe successfully defended the TNT Championship against Wardlow. After the match, Joe cut Wardlow’s hair and looked to do more damage before Darby emerged.
Joe previously defeated Allin on the December 7 episode of AEW Dynamite.
