During a recent appearance on the “DDP Snake Pit” podcast, Darby Allin commented on how he viewed his career just prior to signing with AEW, where he felt he was headed in 2019, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On where he felt he was headed in 2019: “At the time, I was being groomed to go to NXT. And I saw the writing on the wall, this was back when ‘205 Live’ was a thing, and I was like, ‘Hell f**king no I’m not going there to do that.’ My money is in wrestling David and Goliath matches.”
On how he viewed his career just prior to AEW: “I wrestled in Mexico a few times and then I felt like everything that made me special was lost when I was in Mexico because the art of selling goes out the window. All I could think about is there was no way. I wanted to go to AEW and then I can sink or swim on my own merit. I have the opportunity to get over as myself and then fail as myself.”
