Darby Allin (w/ Sting) vs. Andrade El Idolo (w/ Jose the Assistant) - It started innocently enough. Andrade El Idolo simply wanted to "buy that little boy" from Sting in early 2022. That "little boy" was, of course, Darby Allin and he was not for sale. Andrade's disappointment in his inability to, uh, buy Darby Allin led him to lash out. During a TNT Championship match against then title holder Sammy Guevara on the Feb. 16 edition of Dynamite, Andrade laid out Allin and cost him the chance to become TNT Champion for a second time. Since then, Allin and Andrade have done battle in trios and three-way matches, but have yet to meet in a singles contest. That all changes on Wednesday night. Allin heads into the match 7-3 in his last 10 singles matches with those losses coming to Guevara, MJF and CM Punk. Andrade is 8-2 in his last 10 singles matches, with one of those losses also coming in a TNT Championship match against Guevara. While there's no title on the line on Wednesday night, both men are just as eager for a victory, fuelled by a mutual dislike and pride. Will Allin pick up the victory and get back into title contention or will Andrade grab the win as he starts a new march towards gold?
