Darby Allin reveals wedding date is day before major AEW pay-per-view
Reigning AEW World Champion Darby Allin has had quite a 2026 thus far and one that will continue to get better when he gets married this summer.
The date, however, is a notable one.
Allin was being interviewed by NYC radio station Q104.3 Friday on the Jim Kerr Rock & Roll Morning Show when the topic of him getting married came up. He said the date is Saturday, June 27 in Seattle, Washington — a day before Forbidden Door on Sunday, June 28 in San Jose, California.
“So, no honeymoon here,” he joked.
Allin also revealed that he proposed to his now fiancee while he was the top of Mount Everest in May 2025. He explained the two have known each other since meeting on the school bus in high school and reacquainted years later via Instagram when she saw him doing crazy things and reached out to catch up.
Allin said they went bungee jumping on one of their first dates and also revealed she was the victim of a gunshot from a gang member shooting her then-boyfriend that went through him and caught her in the head, resulting in her being medevaced to a trauma center. She later became an ICU nurse.
Allin said the two plan to have children.
He defends the title against MJF Sunday at AEW Double or Nothing in a title vs. hair match.
