Darby Allin is the face of TNT, Tony Hawk is the face of skateboarding and those worlds merged today, ladies and gentlemen.
The TNT Champion is synonymous with his skateboard so it only makes sense that he and Tony Hawk are pretty tight. The legendary skateboarder must have caught wind of Darby Allin’s victory against Scorpio Sky this past Wednesday as the defending champion retained his belt via pinfall and the two stars got together for a little celebratory skate. That including Tony sporting that TNT Championship himself as he skated around the half-pipe. Darby raised Hawk’s hand in victory who didn’t want to be beholden to such a responsibility of potentially harming the cherished prize. You can check out the clip below:

Way before Darby became TNT Champion, Hawk and Allin happened to meet up back in June 2020 at Tony’s skating facility. At the time, Darby wasn’t medically cleared to compete in an AEW ring, but lucky for him, Tony happened to be not be Dr. Sampson so he was “medically cleared” to skate around and Darby did just that. Ever the risk-taker, Darby had his fair share of tumbles and wipe-outs.
