In a fascinating interview with Chris Van Vliet, Darby Allin revealed that before he signed with All Elite Wrestling he was homeless. I could probably just finish there as evidence that Allin's career is much improved right now, but there's so much more to his story.

The straight edge skateboarder has seamlessly transitioned into pro wrestling having made his debut in the squared circle a mere four years ago. Working for promotions like AAA, GCW & Evolve and facing the likes of The Velveteen Dream, Kassius Ohno & Roderick Strong have rapidly enhanced his in-ring ability to compliment his unique style.

Alongside Joey Janela and Jimmy Havoc, he made headlines as part of the jaw-dropping Cracker Barrel Clash at All Out, having already taken Cody Rhodes to a time-limit draw at Fyter Fest.

Darby Allin is probably best known for his thumbtack covered skateboard and breathtaking Coffin Drop manoeuvre, but as he showcased in taking Chris Jericho to the limit for his title on this week's episode of Dynamite, he is so much more than a stuntman.
