Update on Darby Allin Potential Nose Injury at Double or Nothing 2024

As noted before, Darby Allin made his surprise return from a broken foot and face injuries to AEW on the May 15th AEW Dynamite show in Everett, Washington. Allin competed at this past Sunday’s AEW Double or Nothing 2024 event wearing a face mask with studded with thumb tacks for the Anarchy in the Arena match. During the match, Allin was involved in a spot where he was hoisted up feet first in the air and was hit with stereo superkicks by the Young Bucks who wore shoes with tacks on the bottom of it.

Following the event, Allin posted a photo on Twitter on Monday of his face showing it to be in a bloodied and in a banged up state.

Bryan Alvarez reported in a recent episode of the Wrestling Observer Radio that his sources stated that AEW officials had originally been concerned that Allin could have suffered a broken nose injury following the thumb tacks superkicks spot with the Young Bucks. Alvarez reported that Allin had underwent a MRI test following the event and while his nose did get messed up, the results came back negative for a broken nose.

Alvarez also reported that Allin received a “clean bill of health” from his post-match medical checkup at the hospital.
