Darby Allin’s recent run-in with misfortune has garnered well-wishes from WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley, who extended his support to the AEW standout via social media.
Since sustaining a foot injury during his match against Jay White at Dynamite: Big Business in March 2024, the former AEW TNT Champion has been notably absent from All Elite television.
Adding to his woes, Allin shared on Instagram that he likely suffered a broken nose after being struck by a bus while going the streets of New York with his pre-existing foot injury.
In a heartwarming gesture, WWE veteran Mick Foley took to Instagram to convey his sympathies to Allin, accompanying his message with a picture shared by the wrestler following the unfortunate incident.
Foley’s words echoed his admiration for Allin’s resilience, acknowledging his determination to attend a Broadway show despite the ordeal.
Meanwhile, Allin’s daredevilry and penchant for high-risk maneuvers have sparked debate within the wrestling community, with veteran Vince Russo offering critical insights.
Reflecting on Allin’s infamous dive off a ladder onto a glass sheet at AEW Revolution, Russo questioned the safety of such stunts and criticized AEW President Tony Khan’s approach to managing talent risks.
Despite differing opinions, Allin’s popularity remains unscathed, with aspirations like scaling Mount Everest still on his radar, despite his recent setback.
As Allin navigates his recovery journey, the outpouring of support from wrestling legends like Mick Foley serves as a testament to his resilience and enduring impact on the industry. With his tenacity and determination undeterred, fans eagerly await his triumphant return to the squared circle.
