Darby Allin is also one of the top stars in AEW and has cemented himself as one of the Four Pillars in the company. His tag team with Sting remains one of the highlights of AEW television as well. Jeff Hardy has a high opinion of Darby Allin as well.

Darby Allin is a former TNT Champion as he beat Cody Rhodes to win the title last year. He had numerous matches as he defended the championship on a regular basis before dropping it to Miro.

While speaking on The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy, Jeff Hardy talked about meeting Darby Allin for the first time. The Charismatic Enigma gave Allin huge props for being one of the fastest talents he has ever seen.

“We talked about skateboarding, motocross, he showed me the thing he did for the video with the car. We were talking about if a pro wrestler has ever backflipped a dirt bike and maybe you could be the first one. I think I could do it if I came into a foam pit and had some training.

We had a great conversation about extreme sports and he is one of the fastest guys I’ve ever seen. The way he does that suicide dive. Matt’s told me how it feels to take it, it’s like a bullet coming at you.”

Jeff Hardy also had not met Darby Allin until his debut in AEW earlier this month. The Hardys also plan on going after the AEW World Tag Team Championships in the future, so we will have to see if that will happen or not.
