Darby Allin Says Ric Flair Called Him ‘Crazier Than Mick Foley’
Darby Allin isn’t one to slow down when it comes to pulling off stunts.
Widely known as one if, if not the biggest daredevil in all of professional wrestling, Darby Allin recently received some advice to slow it down every once in a while.
WWE Hall of Famer and current AEW star, Ric Flair offered up some advice for the enigmatic Allin, a story the former TNT Champion told when speaking with Rock 106.1.
“Ric Flair, a couple weeks ago, he came up to me and is like, ‘Darby, you need to slow down.’ I’m like, ‘Wait, what?’ ‘You’re crazier than Mick Foley.’ I’m like, ‘Getting advice from Ric Flair?’ What’s funny is, people don’t know how great I feel physically. I feel amazing, like nothing hurts. DDP also, he’s like, ‘We have to put you in a lab. They have to test you out and see what’s going on because you’re not human.’ I feel amazing. I won’t stop doing it. Sorry for anybody trying to give me advice, all the people out there telling me to slow down. I can’t and I won’t.”
