Eddie Kingston (Injured) to be Replaced by Darby Allin in Anarchy in the Arena Match – On the May 15th episode of AEW Dynamite, the Young Bucks announced that Eddie Kingston had fallen victim to the “injury bug,” referencing an injury he sustained at NJPW Resurgence¹. During his no ropes last man standing match against Gabe Kidd, Kingston collided with the guard rail, injuring the back of his legs after taking a brainbuster off the apron and through a table¹.
Kingston shared an update on Instagram, showing himself in a wheelchair with a substantial leg brace. The severity of his injury remains uncertain, leaving fans wondering how long he’ll be sidelined¹. Notably, Kingston was originally slated to team up with Bryan Danielson and FTR (Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler) against The Elite (The Young Bucks, Jack Perry, & Kazuchika Okada) in the Anarchy in the Arena match at AEW Double or Nothing.
However, FTR made an intriguing announcement during the show: they would reveal Kingston’s replacement later that evening. As the main event unfolded, with Harwood facing Kazuchika Okada for the Continental Championship, Darby Allin made a surprise return to a thunderous reception. Commentary confirmed that Allin would step into the Anarchy In The Arena match, adding an exciting twist to the upcoming event.
