At AEW All Out, Jon Moxley emerged victorious over Darby Allin in an intense Coffin Match, but the conflict extended beyond the ring. After the match, backstage tensions erupted as Moxley and the Death Riders carried the coffin with Allin inside, preparing for more confrontation. Moxley ordered the Death Riders to leave, deciding to handle Allin himself, which set the stage for a dramatic and dangerous encounter.
Allin’s Surprise Attack Ignites a Brutal Backstage Fight
Just as Moxley turned back to the coffin, Allin suddenly surfaced with a powerful strike to Moxley’s throat using a pipe, causing Moxley to stumble backward. Seizing the moment, Allin launched a fierce assault. Instead of using the coffin again, he placed Moxley in a green body bag. Instead of continuing with the pipe, Allin doused the bag with an accelerant and briefly set it ablaze, creating a shocking scene backstage.
Flames Ignite, but the Fire Quickly Dies Out
The flames engulfing Moxley did not last long before they died out and were extinguished. Despite the brief nature of the fire, Allin continued his aggressive assault, shouting at Moxley as others intervened to pull him away. The intense backstage brawl ended with unresolved hostility, underscoring escalating tensions between the two wrestlers.
