Following the 2024 AEW Anarchy in the Arena match at the Double or Nothing PPV event, Bryan Alvarez of F4WOnline.com discussed Darby Allin’s condition on Wrestling Observer Radio.
Alvarez said, “Darby, his nose was messed up during the match. They were worried that it might be broken again, but apparently, he had an MRI, and it’s alright. So that’s also good news. But was looking, you know, his foot, I don’t think it’s any worse than it was going in. I mean, I don’t know what you saw on television, but you know, they, they hit his music. Initially, he started sprinting out from backstage. And then I think they realized ‘Whoa,’ and he starts limping bad. He was limping. I’m sure his foot is still hurting.
But the thing was, you know, I think that you know when you hang somebody upside down, that can actually be super dangerous because all the blood starts rushing to your head. And you don’t want to be upside down for a long time. And here’s a guy with a busted up nose, with a broken nose upside down hanging, and it was probably excruciatingly painful, but apparently he got the clean bill today. So that’s good.” (quote courtesy of WrestlingNews.co)
