5 Wrestlers who could win the AEW World Championship in the near future

#1 Darby Allin

Darby Allin has challenged for the AEW World Championship already in his AEW career.

Darby Allin has been one of the major success stories of AEW since the company began in 2019.

Unless you were a hardcore wrestling fan of smaller independent promotions, such as EVOLVE, you were unlikely to have known much about Darby Allin. This all changed when Allin went to a time limit draw with Cody at AEW Fyter Fest 2019. During this match, Darby Allin wowed fans with his unique look, ring attire and move-set. Darby Allin was now on the map.

Since then Darby Allin has gone from strength to strength on AEW Dynamite every single week. His face-painted look, rockstar appearance and unique style have lead some to compare Darby Allin to a young Jeff Hardy. Quite a compliment.

Darby Allin's popularity has continued to grow in All Elite Wrestling, generating huge responses and cheers from the crowd at the very sound of the opening guitar riff of his entrance music.

At 27, Darby Allin still has many years left in professional wrestling as it arguably yet to even hit his peak. As Allin's popularity grows it looks to be inevitable that Darby Allin will hold the AEW World Championship during his career.
