While speaking on his podcast, The Jim Cornette Experience, the wrestling legend gave his thoughts on the match between Shawn Spears and Darby Allin. Jim Cornette wasn’t pleased with the bout, stating that it felt more of an ‘indie’ match:
Mr. Cornette further slammed Shawn Spears for executing a break spot during the match, only to wipe off Allin’s face. He added that it felt absurd to have Spears lose after he disfigured his opponent. The wrestling veteran stated that it felt unnecessary to have two facepaint angles when FTR could have rubbed both Sting and Darby Allin’s faces after they had brutalized them.
Jim Cornette’s statement couldn’t have been more agreeable as producing one facepaint wiping off angle post-match would have generated more heat towards FTR and Tully Blanchard.
Sting and Darby Allin will settle their beef against FTR in a tag team match on AEW Dynamite
In the upcoming episode of AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam, Sting and Darby Allin will lock horns with FTR in a tag team match. The face-painted duo have been undefeated so far and will be the favorites heading into the bout in New York.
But Tully Blanchard, who humiliated Sting this past week, will leave no stone unturned in making sure that Dawson and Wilder pick up a career-defining victory.
