Darby Allin: “My honeymoon was spent face down in thumbtacks”

While speaking with Fox5 Las Vegas, Darby Allin reflected on taking a thumbtack spot at AEW Forbidden Door 2026, just hours after his wedding. During the multi-man tag match involving Mark Briscoe and MJF’s teams, Darby was flipped by MJF and landed face-first into a pile of thumbtacks.

Darby stated the following…

“That’s pretty funny because I got married on Saturday. I got married on a Saturday, and Sunday was the show. No sleep, getting thrown face-first into thumbtacks. Yeah, that was my honeymoon. My honeymoon was spent face down in thumbtacks.”

Darby was also asked, “If you were to do a spot off one of our hotel casinos, what would it be?” Here was Darby’s response…

“Honestly, how it’s shaped. And I know it’s not a casino, but how it’s shaped, it would be fun to try to skateboard down the Sphere, because that’s what I skateboard all the time, and I would love if there was a way to do that that you wouldn’t die. Let me skateboard down the side with, like, a bungee cord attached to my back.”
