"Never say never" - 46-year-old legend open to becoming a wrestler and joining AEW

A 46-year-old prominent stunt artist and television personality has weighed in on the odds of him appearing on AEW programming. The individual in question, Brandon "Bam" Margera, also opened up about sharing a hobby with Darby Allin.

Since its founding, All Elite Wrestling has become one of the leading pro wrestling companies in North America. The Tony Khan-led brand has and continues to feature not only many of the finest performers from across the globe, but also celebrities from various areas of sports and entertainment in its programming. This includes names like Shaq, Mike Tyson, Dennis Rodman, Rick Ross, Rosario Dawson, and more. Furthermore, personalities like Paul Walter Hauser and Big Boom AJ have taken their involvement further by actually stepping inside the squared circle.

During a recent interview with The Sportster, skateboarder, stunt artist, and television star Bam Margera was asked if he would be interested in making an appearance in AEW. The 46-year-old, who is seemingly close friends with Darby Allin, revealed that such an appearance could take place because the former TNT Champion has asked him multiple times.

Margera also spoke about his relationship with The Daredevil, their shared passion for skating, and even mentioned that he hadn't seen Darby actually wrestle in quite some time.

“He keeps asking me, so never say never. Our paths just haven’t crossed yet for me to make it to one of his wrestling shows. But whenever he’s in town — I always go skate with him, whether it’s in Atlanta, where he lives, or in Philly. Skating is our thing. For a long time, I hadn’t even seen Darby wrestle.” [H/T - Ringside News]

Notably, Steve-O, another celebrity who gained popularity from the same MTV reality series that made Margera famous, was in attendance at AEW Full Gear two years ago.

AEW's Darby Allin had talks with WWE

Before he signed with All Elite Wrestling in 2019, Darby Allin performed in various indie promotions, including EVOLVE, which, back in the day, had working ties with WWE. Because of this, the face-painted star had conversations with the Stamford-based promotion, a fact he revealed during his recent interview with Ariel Helwani.

Darby also spoke about his belief that he would mostly be used by the promotion on 205 Live, which led him to crossover to AEW to wrestle the matches he wanted.

“When that was the only game in town essentially, yes [I had talks], because I was a part of their sister company at the time called EVOLVE. Then I saw the writing on the wall.... [My] money is in David and Goliath matches, so when I heard AEW was starting I went, ‘nope, I gotta go.'” [H/T - Ringside News]

Darby has a tall task ahead of him this coming weekend, as he is scheduled to battle Jon Moxley in an "I Quit" match at WrestleDream.
