Important save right there JR.
This is a
an amazing tag team matchup.
Uh oh.
Didn't think of anything less, but
Oh my God. [crowd roars]
Oh! Come on.
Darby thrown around like
a sack of flour.
Yeah, he's headed that bottom rope too,
which is tight cable.
Now Sting is firing up here.
Sting's gotta fight
for his team.
But Sting back Hobbs up to that hard Stinger Splash!
Takeshita with Jumping Knee!
Man, what a rob between the eyes. [crowd booing]
The bullseye. [crowd booing]
Right in the face of the Stinger, who may not [crowd booing]
be able to recover. [crowd booing]
Look at his teamwork here.
Darby Allin, like you said.
Just look at that rope.
Yeah. Man.
That's nasty.
[crowd cheering]
Wait a minute. What is that?
Oh, what the hell? Who's that?
No, don't do it.
You don't belong in there.
[crowd cheering]
Maybe the greatest of terror for these boots.
Oh!
Poke the eyes on Hobbs.
Dirtiest player in the game.
And
Sting, seizing on Takeshita.
Takeshita had Ric Flair in his grip.
And now Sting!
It is disturbing what these men would like to do
to Flair
And Sting
Go Darby!
What a missile. What a missile!
A little and inside the ring,
Stinger Splash for Hobbs.
[crowd] Oh!
Spinebuster.
Spine on the pine.
And Hobbs rolling out to the ramp.
Yeah, but it's falls count anywhere.
Hobbs might be disorientated a bit here.
Yeah, I think Hobbs was trying to buy
himself some time, but Sting and Darby
What the hell are these guys got in mind?
Sting and Darby Allin. What are they doing here?
When, there are a lot of audibles
being called right now.
A lot of audibles being called.
Well, that's what happens to your point.
Audibles is the right word, Jim, because
you've got to make those in this type of
match on the outside.
And Darby on the back of Takeshita. He's trying
to trying to put Konosuke Takeshita to
sleep, but.
Oh!
Oh my God.
That was Darby's spine against that steel.
Steel wins every time.
Just for the record.
And Takesh-
Oh! The knee! The Oh.
Disastrous for Takeshita.
Man, AEW's delivering the most viewed time. Darby, where are you going?
Where are you going son?
Darby, this guy, he don't care. He's got.
Oh! Allin.
My God in heaven.
Crashing down on Konosuke Takeshita. Darby risking it all.
[crowd chanting] Holy s**t! Holy s**t! Holy s**t!
These fans here at. Daily's Place in Jacksonville, our home base
for so long, cannot believe what they're witnessing.
Believe it, folks.
It's an AEW exclusive.
It's a Coffin Drop off the top of the
bleachers there. It's insane by Darby Allin.
And that's a hard floor, so it's not padded
or nothing.
That is just concrete with a thin layer of carpet over it.
[crowd chanting] This is awesome!
But Hobbs, taking down the straps.
Sting. Taz , I think this has been the most jeopardy
we've seen Sting in the entire time he's been
here in AEW.
I think you're right. He might not make it a Greensboro.
Well, what the hell's Hobbs going to do?
Hobbs carrying Sting
Oh, remember picture in picture,
Takeshita and Hobbs set up those tables.
Oh, wait a second.
Sting fighting for his life.
If you go for that death drop, Sting trying to overpower
Powerhouse Hobbs
Oh!
Down. Did you hear that crash?
The anatomy of the spine
through the table.
The Scorpion Death drop off the stage through the tables at ringside.
[crowd chanting] Holy s**t! Holy s**t! Holy s**t!
The fans here describing it very accurately.
As Sting 1,
rolls over 2,
3.
[bell rings] and gets the pin!
[man] The winner of this match
Darby Allin
and
Sting!
What a comeback.
What resilience
by Sting
and Darby Allin.
Sting and Darby taking a lot of chances.
Taking a lot of risks.
Darby Allin has no fear.
Sting, he knew he needed to break out something special
to bring down an athlete like Powerhouse Hobbs.
You bet. Sting had an amazing counter, JR,
right there to make that happen and
defeat Hobbs.
Great catch as catch can wrestling
a great counter by
by Sting.
Darby Allin again puts his body through pure hell
Darby and lived to tell about it.
Darby limping towards the ring, limping
towards Sting. I mean,
What a match this was. What a war this was.
To cap off our homecoming, I cannot wait
until Greensboro.
Sting's last match.
It's going to be an emotional night.
Tickets are going fast. There are not many left.
Get yours early at AEWtix.com.
And join us for what would be an unforgettable night.
Sunday, March 3rd.
Greensboro Coliseum.
The end of an era, the end of the in-ring
career of the icon, Sting.
Look at this again.
And he's doing it on his own terms, Taz. He really is.
And it's just so impressive.
It's all inspiring, which Sting has done
his whole career, but especially this last run.
He's a great guy, he's tremendous, and
this was a great night tonight, by the way,
guys, a great night.
And inside the ring is our colleague, the
great Tony Schiavone, hoping to get a word
with the icon Sting.
Thought he was just sitting next to him
and how he got there so quick.
Teleportation. All right sting.
Listen to these fans, would you?
My God. Take a breath here.
Look at look to America here because March
3rd is rapidly approaching.
It's your last match.
It's at Revolution's.
The Greensboro ticket sales are through the
roof. Fans will be watching on pay per view.
But I have one question for your final
match. Who will your opponent be?
I mean, they underwent a tremendous
transformation. And now are they calling out
the icon Sting? For his final match?
I have no idea, but it's not a bad idea.
Here it is.
This is how you're going to return back to
active duty. To the Queen.
And it's a totally different look.
It's a total different presentation of the
book stinging.
Shocked and all.
I mean, I'm sure we're all shocked.
