During Wednesday night’s edition of AEW Dynamite, Darby Allin saw his 186 day reign as AEW TNT Champion come to an end after he lost to Miro. Once Dynamite went off the air, Allin grabbed a microphone and cut a promo for the live audience and he got very emotional, speaking about how much the TNT Championship meant to him. He said,
“When I became TNT Champion, I told everybody it was the only championship that meant anything to me. And I mean that 100%. People ask me, ‘When are going to win the big one? When are you going to win the AEW Heavyweight Championship?’ I look them dead in the eye and said, ‘I don’t need that s**t. I need the TNT Championship.’”
Allin continued, “I don’t need to collect any other belts from anywhere else in this world. I need the TNT Championship. And I guarantee you, every single one of you here. This is not the last time I am TNT Champion. Thank you for all the support. It means the world to me.”
