Ranking Every AEW Wrestler's 2019 From Worst To Best

14. Darby Allin

AEW Roster Ranked

Darby Allin's do-or-die attitude and propulsive style of wrestling were already well-known to anyone familiar with his pre-AEW work, but that he has established himself as the promotion's foremost young rising star is a pleasant surprise indeed.

It doesn't matter that Darby is undersized because his spirit more than makes up for any perceived physical discrepancies. He's an electric performer, a creative mind, and a certified sympathy magnet, having successfully gotten himself over in defeats to Cody and Jon Moxley.

Already ridiculously popular, look for Allin to keep making waves in 2020.
