Darby Allin suffered a fractured foot in three different spots while facing Jay White on the AEW Dynamite: Big Business episode.
The injury happened at the beginning of the match when he tried a flip plancha to the outside. Nevertheless, he pushed through and kept wrestling for a few more minutes.
While appearing on The Daly Migs Show, Allin provided an injury update. He said,
“Unfortunately, my foot is not scheduled to heal until I’d say June. So if I did roll up, it would just be with a broken face and a broken foot waving to the crowd, which may not be the worst thing. I’ll see. I trained in Everett, Washington, so it would be like an ultimate homecoming of sorts. That’d be really cool. May 15, I gotta see….I think might be able to make it. As long as there’s no buses, I’m good.”
He added, “I was all excited. I was like, yeah, I’m gonna kick Mount Everest’s ass. This is gonna be awesome. Then two weeks before I was supposed to fly out, I broke my foot wrestling at the show. I broke my foot in the first minute of the match and I wrestled an extra 13 minutes on the broken foot. It was so hard, it was miserable. Then I got three metal plates put in my foot, so I’m recovering from that.”
