With AEW WrestleDream seeing a brutal I Quit match between Darby Allin and Jon Moxley, that bout has received criticism from former AEW coach Sarah Stock.

For those who may have missed WrestleDream, Allin vs. Moxley served as the PPV's main event, featuring plentiful violence, including Darby getting tasered in his balls, having bamboo skewers put under his fingernails, and then Mox dunking his head into a full fish tank.

Taking to X, Sarah Stock - better known as Dark Angel in CMLL and across Mexico, and as Sarita in TNA - hit out at the WrestleDream main event, particularly the attempted drowning of Darby Allin, and at those parents who may have allowed their children to watch that match.
