Darby Allin is the new AEW World Champion.
Allin defeated MJF on Wednesday’s Dynamite Spring BreakThru episode, which took place at the Angel of the Winds Arena in Everett, Washington roughly 30 minutes north of Allin’s hometown of Seattle.
The quick match had a finish that saw Allin get the win over MJF after four coffin drops and then a headlock takedown to get the pin.
Before the match took place, WWE Hall of Famer Sting appeared and told Allin it was not showtime, but his (Allin’s) time. After the win, the AEW locker room emptied as talent made their way to the ring to celebrate with Allin, as confetti came down. Sting made his second appearance of the night, by coming to the ring to celebrate with Allin as well.
