All Elite Wrestling superstar Darby Allin is taking some time off after a rough few months. His last match was teaming in a loss with FTR (Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood) and Bryan Danielson against The Elite (Jack Perry, Kazuchika Okada, Matthew Jackson & Nicholas Jackson) at AEW Double Or Nothing on May 26. Since the brutal Anarchy In the Arena Match, Allin has not been on TV. A new report has shared an update on his absence.
Fightful Select has reported that AEW has given Allin time off to heal from his injuries, including a broken nose. It\'s unclear when he may return, but the company is ensuring the AEW superstar has enough time to recover.
Just unbelievable behavior from the EVPs.

Darby Allin\'s Eventful Year
The first half of 2024 has been a very eventful time for the former TNT Champion. He started the year off strong alongside Sting, as they quickly became title contenders in the tag team division. The fan-favorite duo eventually became champions and successfully defended themselves against The Young Bucks (Matthew & Nicholas) at AEW Revolution on March 3. Although he found success early in the year, injuries took a toll on Allin\'s body.
In the brutal tag team match against The Young Bucks, Allin had a spot where he launched himself off a ladder from inside the ring to the ringside on a pane of glass. The dangerous move resulted in Allin\'s back being cut up and needing stitches. After relinquishing the titles due to Sting\'s retirement, Allin would then take some time off with hopes of climbing Mount Everest.
Darby Allin\'s Injuries Continue To Take Its Toll
AEW put him against Jay White for a loss on the March 13 episode of AEW Dynamite to take him off TV. Unfortunately, Allin suffered a broken foot in the matchup that caused the daredevil performer to be inactive and ruined his hopes of traveling up Mount Everest. Allin\'s injuries woes continued the following month when he was hit by a bus, resulting in a broken nose.
Allin returned to action earlier than expected to compete at AEW Double Or Nothing, as a replacement for the injured Eddie Kingston. In the match, fans noticed he was wearing a face mask and had not recovered fully from his injuries. That said, it didn\'t prevent him from dangerous moments, including being Superkicked in the face while suspended above the ring by The Young Bucks.
The proper time away from wrestling is necessary for Allin to recover from his issues. Hopefully, he can be at full strength soon and plot revenge on The Elite for his last defeat at AEW Double or Nothing.
