Sting & Darby Allin tag match announced for next AEW Dynamite

Sting and Darby Allin will team up on the Wednesday, January 10 AEW Dynamite episode. 

AEW revealed during Wednesday’s show that Sting & Allin will team against Konosuke Takeshita & Powerhouse Hobbs of The Don Callis Family on next week’s Dynamite. 

Takeshita defeated Allin in a singles match on this week’s episode. In a subsequent backstage interview, Don Callis issued the challenge to Allin & Sting on Takeshita & Hobbs’ behalf. AEW’s commentary team announced later in the program that Sting & Allin had accepted the challenge. 

A key point of the Callis challenge promo was Sting’s 25-0 AEW record, a mark that it appears will be heavily focused in the build to Sting’s retirement match set for the Revolution pay-per-view in Greensboro, North Carolina on Sunday, March 3. 

Sting, Allin, Chris Jericho, & Sammy Guevara defeated Takeshita, Hobbs, Big Bill, & Ricky Starks at last week’s Worlds End pay-per-view in an eight-man tag team contest.

AEW also announced that Samoa Joe will be at next week’s Dynamite. The show will take place at Daily’s Place in Jacksonville, Florida. 

AEW Dynamite January 10 announced lineup:

  • Sting & Darby Allin vs. Konosuke Takeshita & Powerhouse Hobbs
