During this week’s episode of Dynamite, AEW commentator Excalibur announced that Darby Allin had been hospitalized after his Continental Classic match last week against Kevin Knight, putting his future participation in doubt. And now, following this unfortunate news, Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Radio has stated that the 32-year-old was injured by Kevin Knight’s brutal-looking Coast-to-Coast Dropkick and was actually in the hospital for “a while,” but is thankfully now home.
Allin, who has been signed to AEW since 2019, has built his career on an ultra-high-risk style featuring coffin drops off ladders, thumbtack spots, skateboard attacks, and dives through glass or onto concrete, quickly establishing him as AEW’s premier daredevil. This reckless approach has produced iconic moments, but also a lengthy injury history, including a broken foot and a fractured arm. Still, despite the mounting physical toll, Allin has consistently refused to tone down his death-defying style, cementing his reputation as professional wrestling’s most fearless high-spot artist.
