Darby Allin and Sting teamed up to face Ethan Page and Scorpio Sky at AEW Double or Nothing.
Sky and Page had been attacking Allin in recent weeks, and throwing him down a flight of steps at Daily's Place played a part in losing the TNT Title to Miro. Allin and Page have a history with one another, too, with All Ego severely injuring Darby when they were on the independent wrestling scene.
This also marked Sting's first match in front of an audience in six years.
Darby Allin & Sting vs Scorpio Sky & Ethan Page
Darby and Sting attack Ethan and Scorpio and beat on them at ringside before Scorpio suplexes Sting onto the ramp before Sting pops right back up and tosses Scorpio off of the stage and onto Ethan before hitting them with a diving cross body. Inside the ring Darby and Sting double team Scorpio before Scorpio hits Darby with a cutter and Ethan tosses Darby upside down into the corner before Darby gets launched over the top rope and over the railing before Sting holds onto him and nearly lets him get counted out before Darby gets back inside and counters Ego's Edge before getting the hot tag to Sting. Sting drops Scorpio repeatedly and takes out both Scorpio and Ethan with Stinger Splashes before hitting Ethan with a code red for two before saving Darby from Ego's Edge and Sting locks in a Scorpion Death Lock as Scorpio puts Darby in a heel hook and Ethan and Darby slap each other. Both submissions break before Scorpio and Sting exchange strikes until Sting counters a slingshot cutter into a Scorpion Death Drop for the pin and the win.
Winner: Sting and Darby Allin defeat Scorpio Sky and Ethan Page via pinfall.
