A new alliance has been formed in AEW.
Tonight’s Rampage saw Darby Allin defeat The Firm’s Lee Moriarty in singles-action, a huge win for the former TNT Champion as he appears to be headed towards a showdown with MJF and the other pillars of the company.
Afterward Allin was walking back to the locker room when he was confronted by Swerve Strickland. As the two looked ready to come to blows Allin was attacked by Brian Cage, who delivered a brutal F-5 to the 30-year-old superstar. Prince Nana, who manages Cage and the rest of the Embassy faction, was also at ringside.
