Brody King reveals a personal story from his history with Darby Allin.
At AEW WrestleDream on October 12th, Darby Allin and Brody King met in singles action in a brutal match, which culminated in Darby hitting a pair of devastating Coffin Drops onto Brody to score his first pinfall victory over the House of Black member.
While speaking to Bodyslam.net's Mark O'Brien in an interview prior to AEW WrestleDream, Brody reflected on Darby setting up a phone call with Tony Khan for him on the day after Ring Of Honor closed.
"I wouldn't say uncomfortable it was definitely different you know I think a lot of people know that I'm a little more reserved on camera as far as like my personal life you know, I'm not shy about it in interviews or anything like that, but I feel like the general casual audience probably doesn't know a lot of that and they don't know the inner workings like they're used to seeing me as this like more cold robotic, like House of Black member. That's like, you know, I feel like when me, Malakai, and Buddy are together, that's a whole different Brody King in itself. It's like a hive mind of the three of us. But yeah, it was definitely different. But I hope that the audience kind of gets a little bit of that backstory and they know why this is so personal. I mean, Darby is right. The day that Ring of Honor closed, he texted me the very next day and said, hey this is Tony Khan's number he's expecting you to call him and it's like you know that stuff like that is like not is nothing I can ever repay but you know me and Darby don't see eye to eye in all facets of our life so you know where I think that there's a baseline of respect and you know maybe love there somewhere but uh sometimes you got to fight it out to to get through the weeds."
Elsewhere in a seperate interview, Brody spoke about his run in the Continental Classic last year. You can read more about that here.
