Darby Allin, known for his resilience and ability to endure intense punishment, has always been a fan favorite in AEW, with many wondering if the company will ever pull the trigger on making him AEW World Champion. Recent rumors have sparked speculation about Allin’s chances of capturing the title, but a recent clarification has provided more insight into the situation.

As Darby Allin is set to challenge for the AEW World Championship during the September 25th Grand Slam episode of Dynamite at Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York, fans have been buzzing about the possibility of him winning the title. Reports from Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter suggested that there has been strong discussion about Allin potentially defeating Bryan Danielson for the championship.

“Darby Allin beating Bryan Danielson for the AEW World Championship has been strongly talked about,” Meltzer noted.

However, in a recent Q&A podcast on Fightful Select, Sean Ross Sapp was asked about the possibility of Allin winning the AEW World Title. Sapp clarified that while the idea of Allin winning the championship had been discussed, it is not currently planned.

“I have not heard that Darby Allin is planned to win the AEW Title. I heard it was discussed at one point but haven’t heard it was planned,” Sapp explained.

For now, Bryan Danielson is scheduled to defend his AEW World Championship against Jack Perry at the All Out pay-per-view in September. If Danielson retains, it is likely that Allin will be next in line for a shot at the title, setting up a potential clash between the two at a later date.

As fans continue to speculate, the question remains: Will AEW eventually crown Darby Allin as a world champion? While the possibility has been discussed, it appears that nothing is set in stone at this time.
