Owen Hart Foundation Cup qualifying match: Darby Allin (w/ Sting) vs. Shane "Swerve" Strickland - Two stars from the Pacific Northwest do battle on Friday night with a spot in the Owen Hart Foundation Cup on the line when Seattle's Darby Allin meets Shane "Swerve" Strickland of Tacoma, WA. With both men hailing from the same region, Allin and Strickland are no strangers to one another and have crossed paths numerous times in the past, but not recently. In their last meeting for DEFY Wrestling in 2019, Allin picked up the victory in a hard-fought 20-minute match. It was the first time that Allin had defeated Swerve in one-on-one competition. Victory in Friday's match comes with an additional prize: a berth in the Owen Hart tournament, joining the previously qualified Kyle O'Reilly, Adam Cole and Dax Harwood. Which of these two combatants will enter the tournament?
