Sting & Darby Allin win Tag Team titles on AEW Dynamite

Sting & Darby Allin are the new AEW Tag Team Champions.

The two defeated Big Bill & Ricky Starks to win the titles for the first time on Wednesday, continuing Sting’s undefeated streak and their own undefeated streak as a tag team. The finish came when Allin managed to put both himself and Bill through a table. In the ring, Starks escaped from the scorpion deathlock, but Sting then hit the scorpion death drop for the win.

As Sting & Allin were celebrating, The Young Bucks suddenly entered the ring and attacked both with baseball bats. They had previously expressed interest in facing Sting & Allin ever since they made their return to the company in January, now going by their given names Nicholas and Matthew. After bloodying both men, they briefly held the tag titles before dropping them on top of the new champions.

Bill & Starks had held the titles for 123 days, defeating FTR on the October 7 edition of Collision. Back on the January 24 edition of Dynamite, Allin asked Sting if they wanted to challenge for the Tag Team titles. Sting agreed, and the champions later accepted their challenge backstage.
