Darby Allin Says He’s Not 100% Before AEW All Out, Messed Up His Spine At AEW All In

Darby Allin is banged up coming out of AEW All In. 

Darby Allin teamed with Sting at AEW All In, facing Swerve Strickland & Christian Cage in a coffin match. Allin & Sting were victorious in the bout, putting Swerve in the coffin and shutting the door. There will be no rest for Allin as he will be back in the ring at AEW All Out to challenge Luchasaurus for the AEW TNT Championship. 

Speaking to CBS Chicago, Allin said he’s a bit banged up going into AEW All Out. 

“I’m not 100%. We had a show in London, I really messed my spine up. I’m trying to take it easy before Sunday,” he said. “My lower back is really banged up. At the show in Wembley, I jumped off the top rope and landed on a metal coffin on my lower spine. Luchasaurus, he’s a huge dude. I think a lot of it has to do with where I’m willing to go in that ring. A lot of people aren’t willing to go where I’m willing to go mentally. I can take a big butt kicking. When things are going, there are things I’m capable of that I believe nobody else is.”

When asked if there was any possibility that he would miss AEW All Out, Allin replied, “No, I can touch my toes still, so I’m good.”
