Darby Allin made a surprise return to All Elite Wrestling (AEW) ‘Dynamite’ to attack Kevin Knight, who had been aligned with the Don Callis Family in recent weeks. Knight had been taking aim at Allin and ‘Speedball’ Mike Bailey, criticizing Allin for failing to keep the AEW title at Double or Nothing against Maxwell Jacob Friedman (MJF) and Bailey for breaking up the Jet Speed tag team.
Mark Briscoe Gets Closer to MJF’s Title
Meanwhile, Mark Briscoe picked up another big win in his singles match against Pac, bringing him closer to a potential title shot against MJF. Briscoe had been challenging MJF for the AEW World Championship, but the champion had brushed him off each time, claiming that Briscoe isn’t main event material or championship material.
However, Briscoe’s recent win has changed the dynamics, and he will now face MJF and five others in a steel cage match at Forbidden Door. If Briscoe’s team wins, he will be guaranteed an AEW World Championship shot.
