AEW TNT Champion Darby Allyn believes his current title has more personal value to him than the promotion’s top prize, the AEW World Championship.
Aline is now at her place third reign as TNT championwhich first won the title back in 2020. He recently spoke “Going to ringside,” where he discussed the importance of the championship to him and explained why winning the TNT title was more important than winning the world championship.
“To be honest, I’ll be real, the first time I really found my place in this company was during the pandemic when I became the TNT champion. So this championship means more to me than when I won the world championship. I felt more defeated than defeated. said: “There are champions that can sit back and do nothing, or there are champions that can do everything. So that’s my whole MO with this title.”
Aline, who has often struggled to achieve his goals, sees the TNT Championship as AEW’s runaway title, which makes it even more special to him.
“It’s kind of an incomplete title in itself, you know, in the grand scheme of things, but I live with it. So yeah, I feel a lot more passionate about this,” he concluded.
His world title reign only lasted 39 days, winning it from MJF and losing it again, but he seemed to be thriving the pressure of being a champion. However, Alin couldn’t quite enjoy winning the World Cup as he was drained of all his energy after his brutal match with MJFwhich defined him as a wrestler who gives his all to overcome the odds.
