The aforementioned star, who is a former AEW World Tag Team Champion, is Darby Allin. He is currently engaged in a heated feud with Jon Moxley since returning to the Jacksonville-based promotion. The two faced off in a gruesome Coffin Match at the All Out: Texas event and are scheduled to clash again in an 'I Quit' match at the upcoming pay-per-view, AEW WrestleDream.

As seen in a video on AEW's X, Tony Khan was in attendance at the recent New York Comic Con with several of his roster stars, including Jon Moxley. Darby Allin marched in during a panel discussion and immediately smashed a water bottle on Moxley's head before the duo traded blows, and a brawl erupted.

"Everybody in AEW has so much respect for Jon Moxley. He arrived in AEW as a huge star. And since we started AEW, he’s been the most consistent presence on the show week in, week out on all of our shows. Since day one, Jon has been one of the most important stars in AEW. But backstage, also one of the most important people in AEW," Tony Khan said.

With Khan's promotion gearing up for WrestleDream, it remains to be seen whether Jon Moxley can make Darby Allin utter the words "I Quit" at the event.
