Darby Allin Defeats MJF To Win AEW World Championship At AEW Dynamite Spring BreakThru
Darby Allin reaches the top of AEW.
This week’s episode of AEW Dynamite kicked off with a surprise moment for MJF, as he was informed that he’ll be defending the AEW World Championship against Darby Allin in the show’s opening match. ‘Big Hebrew’ was able to talk his way out of the match opening the show, delaying it until the main event.
After receiving a surprise visit and pep talk from Sting, Allin went to the ring to headline the show with MJF. The match started with MJF delivering a lowblow to Allin while Aubrey Edwards was distracted. Allin gave it right back to him, giving him a jolt of momentum in the process.
Allin proceeded to deliver not one, not two, not three, but four coffin drop finishers to MJF before pinning him with a headlock takeover to win the belt. The show ended with Sting and various roster members celebrating with Allin in the ring.
WITH FOUR COFFIN DROPS AND A HEADLOCK TAKEOVER, DARBY'S DONE IT! #AndNEW!
