5 Surprising Moments From AEW Fyter Fest

#4 Darby Allin Gets A Star Making Match

How would Darby Allin look in his showcase match? Judging by the crowd reactions he is on his way to being a top star

Darby Allin certainly has sold himself as a daredevil. He has only being wrestling for three years after being a professional skateboarder. It seemed an interesting choice to have him make his AEW debut against Cody Rhodes. Could he truly handle the big stage?

It was an interesting twenty minute match. Cody spent a lot of the match simply punishing Darby Allin. It pushed Darby into the underdog role quickly.

The memorable moment of the match will be the attempted Coffin Drop. Darby attempted the move and landed back first onto the ring apron. That was very painful.

After surviving being zipped up in a body bag, Darby Allin was just able to survive and beat the twenty minute time limit. He certainly stood out in this match and the draw allows him to look good going forward. I will curious to see where Darby’s character goes from here once the weekly show starts on TNT.
