Clearly, Allin and Jungle Boy are both projects for Tony Khan and future stars of AEW. There has been investment made in both and seeing them collide on this stage is meaningful from an entertainment perspective, but also as a check-in point on their progress in becoming faces of the company.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>CATCH-UP:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2021\/04\/18\/jim-ross-talks-cm-punk-wants-him-back-in-pro-wrestling\/\">Jim Ross talks CM Punk, wants him back in pro wrestling<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-3441007166\"><div id=\"pwtor-2800000436\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Darby Allin will defend the AEW TNT Championship on this week&#8217;s episode of AEW Dynamite.
