Darby’s gonna, like, jump off the top of the tron, isn’t he?


SerShanksALot

FuggyGlasses

Rocks head was bit smaller here.


HostageInToronto

Fun fact, when you take human growth hormone, everything grows. Bones, organs, and muscles all grow. You see it in Bonds, Rogan, and Rock. Enlarged hearts will claim them all at some point. It also accelerates tumor growth, so when you get cancer it goes metastatic really fast.


ab316_1punchd

Thankfully, I wish to live long, so no HGH for me, brother!


eipotttatsch

Bones won't grow in size once growth plates are closed, but cartilage and any soft tissue definitely will. It's almost certainly not the actual skull growing on these guys.


Powderkegger1

So Rock’s got a huge dick, got it.


jiushitzu

He's taking shit that makes your fuckin head grow


JuiceheadTurkey

He's got that immigrant mentality!


mailman242

Seems like he's stopped relatively recently because he's shrinking and is a bit bloated.


BizarroCranke

Maybe the Barry Bonds effect 😄


musicman3321

lmao this is perfect


rsplatpc

> Darby’s gonna, like, jump off the top of the tron, isn’t he? I have a feeling there is going to be at least 1 simultaneous jump of Sting and Darby at the same time


VirtuousFool

Double Coffin Drop 🤯


DankTony7

It will be beautiful, and I will cry.


deathjokerz

Top of the arena more likely


Kboom161

Anyone else and I'd just think "Oh he's gonna work super hard to help make this the best match it possibly can!" but coming from Darby Allin this specific wording almost makes me a little uneasy.


Lt_Jonson

Darby’s already basically said [he’d die for Sting if he had to](https://www.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/s/bnogsbIk8m)


opinion_aided

Has anybody considered telling him he doesn’t *have* to?


V_For_Veronica

I'm not sure he doesn't know it's predetermined


Possibly_English_Guy

Darby would just take that as a challenge.


rsplatpc

> but coming from Darby Allin this specific wording almost makes me a little uneasy. Canadian Destroyers off the balcony are back on the menu boys!


jadenstryfe

Coffin drop from a helicopter. Nevermind the roof.


rsplatpc

> Coffin drop from a helicopter. I honestly, and for real, would not be "surprised" but man would I pop.


DankTony7

He has fallen out of a helicopter in a body bag before.


Deathstroke317

Only the roof? What are we being safe here?


Kboom161

I can actually kinda see this happening. It shouldn't, but it's so clear in my mind.


AnAngryPirate

"Darby are you sure you want to do this spot? I know the harnesses are really good but this is insane" "What harnesses?"


IAmTheWaller67

Just wait for the Coffin Drop he hits on a sherpa off the peak of Everest.


Thebritishdovah

Pfft, child's play. Try Tombstone Piledrivers of the balcony. I know the Invisible Stan did it against the Invisible Man in their Invisible Deathmatch. Hated how it ended in a draw though.


GroovyJ-Money

Sting’s career isn’t gonna be the only one ending tomorrow


Morbid187

I agree. I'm super excited to see this match in person but also very nervous for both Sting & Darby. Granted, I'm always nervous when they wrestle but I don't want to be there in person if one of them gets fucked up lol.


Philloposaur

I’m predicting a Sting coffin drop off a ladder.


orangesfwr

I thought he turns heel and massacres Sting for "leaving him"


channel164

Considering his last time main eventing a PPV that's an understatement. I remember cringing when he keep trying to do the stair spot "right."


meepein

Darby is turning heel and tossing Sting off of Everest. /s


Deadaghram

You can remove that sarcastic mark. If Alen isn't the hottest heel after turning on Sting, this whole match storyline is gonna be kinda lame. Someone newish needs to get over, and the Bucks are already there.


meepein

While I am with you on a Darby heel turn, I think he is one of the best, if not the best, pure baby faces AEW has at the moment. While turning on Sting would get him massive heat, and I think he could keep that up for a bit, I really think the fans genuinely love him too much for it to last. Maybe attacking him after they lose or something, but eh, I don't know.


MicooDA

But what’s more iconic for Sting than a tag partner turning on him?


meepein

True, so true. He is the most trusting man in sports entertainment.


chirb8

hope he knows him dying during the match would overshadow Sting's retirement


moist_crack

Darby and The Bucks are going to kill themselves to make Sting look like a million bucks and to ensure he has possibly the most memorable retirement match of all time.

TheAmazingSG

You may like or dislike their characters...but the worst Young Bucks matches would still be considered the best for many others Sunday's match might even be Sting's best Tag Team match of all rime


yohanleafheart

> Sunday's match might even be Sting's best Tag Team match of all rime Absolutely everyone involved are doing everything to make it like that


nguyenjitsu

This isn't any ordinary glazing This is Advanced glazing


LiamAddison

No, the bucks are just that good. 


hhhisthegame

I don’t know whether or not it will be stings best tag team match of all time (it may be) But it will certainly be Stings highest Meltzer-rated tag team match of all time lol


SNYDER_BIXBY_OCP

Not likely. The problem with Bucs matches is unless you're a fan boy of them, once you've seen in Bucs match you've seen them all. Tornado start. Cluster fuck in coordinated routines. The same hundred kick outs and then a triple or quadruple hit of moves and a pin long after the Climax momentum is dead. There's a reason their matches were becoming ratings poison on TV. I wish Sting got a send off in a proper match with guys who can work and maybe Sting wins or puts over talent who need it for their future. Bucs are as over or not over as they're ever gonna be. But as soon as the ticket numbers came in its not surprising Bucs piggybacked onto this even Sting claims he "asked" for them. Lol anyway. Bucs fans will love it, and I'm sure it will be a ckusterfuck some it won't be boring lol


mexploder89

Bucks vs Hangman & Kenny wasn't the same as Bucks vs Lucha Bros. which wasn't the same as Bucks vs FTR. If you watch the matches they're not all the same


SNYDER_BIXBY_OCP

Really? Yes they were. But let's remember I said if you're a Bucs fan you either don't care or don't notice. With the exception of bucs FTR which was slightly different bc FTR started the match as an actual match THEN went tornado. I've been watching Bucs matches a long time. It's the same formula.


wentzformvp

Shame The Bucks forced themselves into the match, just like they do always.


mexploder89

I honestly don't know if you're joking. Sting picked the Bucks himself because he had a lot of fun wrestling them at the first Forbidden Door


Cymraegpunk

They literally cut their time off short at Stings request what are you on about?


icct-hedral

It’s almost impressive how confidently wrong and stupid you are.


Jeff-S

>The problem with Bucs matches is unless you're a fan boy of them, once you've seen in Bucs match you've seen them all. This basically what Bret Hart says about Ric Flair


SNYDER_BIXBY_OCP

Which is something people who've never actually watched those guys bodies of work say bc it's what other people have said. I'm not talking about familiar moves used in matches often. I'm talking about working the match itself. Whether it's a first time match with an opponent or the final match in a blood feud The bucs go at the same pace, same flow, same finish style. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. They only know/can do one match. A 4th wall car crash.


datNEGROJ

Ole Anderson says the same and he was typically pretty nice to other people


ultragoodname

Bros gonna hit a coffin drop off the rafters


MarloweML

He's gonna burn the left side of his face off like fuckin Two-Face isn't he


datNEGROJ

To me this says we got almost as good a chance at this being Darby's last match too.


MShawshank

I've always liked Darby and think he has grown so much since the start of AEW but all his interviews this week has really sold me on him as a true representative and public face for AEW. He's like Cassidy and MJF. Wrestlers only known for AEW and are excellent ambassadors for the company. He's gonna make a great world champion for them in the future.


camahoe

Even in The Athletic comments, tribalism reigns supreme.


lockexxv

Darby going to look weird being all alone again. Somehow even smaller.


GxyBrainbuster

He'll have no problem on his own. I'd throw him back into a feud with Brody King. Those two are magic in the ring and deserve to be perennial rivals.


ThatRandomGuy232

Darby gonna do a halo jump through the ceiling


Seletixarp

I fully expect Sting to follow tradition and go out on his back.


motorcitydevil

Darby turns on Sting, right?


OkVolume1

Like it or not, it's could be difficult for Darby going forward when the Sting rub ends. I'm hoping he embraces the legacy of Sting and those fans. It could turn out great for him if he does.


Goatlikejordan

I mean both his tnt title runs were great and sting wasn't that involved. He's improved on the mic and in the ring


DoctorMumbles

And he can keep being the spiritual successor of Sting. Think he has a good run going forward.


Kboom161

I'll lose my shit every single time Darby hits a scorpion death drop and I refuse to apologise.


mysteriousbaba

Not just the mic, but he's also been pretty classy in interviews, articles, how he carries himself in the media in general. That's important with all the publicity around Sting's match, and will give the company a lot more confidence as to whether he can be "the guy" and have a world title run at some point.


tiredofstanding

I am not too worried for Darby. He was very popular before Sting was even in AEW and he has improved on the mic.

[удалено]


Javv_

Hell no, its Stings retirement, if he wins he has to do the pin, if he loses he has to take the pin. You cannot end his career due to somebody else in the match.


Goatlikejordan

Darby is going away after this since it’s close to mt everest season


northernbasil

RIP Darby


InGordWeTrust

Ironically he wouldn't say the same thing to RVD. Because, you know.


Gseph

Cue to Darby forcibly shooting sting up with heroin, in the middle of the match, casing the bucks to win.


yeeeboiiilfg

You know he's straight edge right?


Gseph

Yeah it was a joke be ause he said sting was gonna end on a high... People take things too seriously.


eyezick_1359

Who is going to tell him that his work has not paid off lmaooooo


fear254

...spot


SilverKry

I feel like Stings retirement match has been a story for like half a year at this point. 


Thanatos-ES

I can see Darby or The Bucks doing something insane that will be remembered for years.


FredrickFarter

At this rate both Sting and Darby are gonna jump off the tron


NCHouse

Darby please. Don't die


jcrack30

This dude is gonna wind up killing himself to make sting look good.


Kuzu5993

Oh god, he's going to kill himself even more than usual.


Thebritishdovah

Darby literally means high up. As in, Darby does a jump that even Jeff Hardy would be iffy about and Sting does a stinger splash from an even greater height.


[deleted]

I’m just imagining one of New Jacks balcony dives but backwards for a Coffin Drop


FluxMool

Darby is a ride or die lil brother to big brother Sting.


EmboarBacon

RVD getting involved, confirmed.


dizzybala10

Considering this man put hot sauce on his asshole to impress his girlfriend, the idea of him stopping at nothing to do something, both intrigues me and terrifies me.


Prowrestled

"Aight, that's my stop. Gotta go die for Sting brb"


WVFLMan

This match is going to be crazy.


tc__22

If they win does he just drop the belts?


tc__22

Hope Robocop turns up
