At AEW All Out next month, Darby Allin is scheduled to challenge for the title against Luchasaurus. This comes amidst Allin’s feud with the Mogul Embassy, primarily Swerve Strickland and AR Fox.
One person who knows all to well how talented Allin is, is CM Punk, who feuded with Punk when the Chicago native made his AEW debut at All Out 2021.
Speaking with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated, Punk, a known Chicago Blackhawks fan, was asked to name the Conor Bedard of the All Elite Wrestling locker room, naming Darby Allin.
It’s Darby Allin,” says Punk. “He’s still fairly young, and he always makes chicken salad out of chicken sh–. He’s got that ‘It Factor’, and he’s really getting comfortable. We had a whole big promo segment a few weeks ago [on Collision], and I thought he shined. That made me super proud. He has a ton to offer, as long as he doesn’t kill himself jumping over his house in a f—— monster truck or something like that,”

Punk and Allin will both compete at AEW All In on August 27 later this week.
