Miro, formerly known in WWE as Rusev, has been a member of the All Elite Wrestling roster since last September. And while he hasn’t suffered a pinfall or submission loss inside of an AEW ring, his run with the company has been heavily criticized so far because of his lackadaisical persona, his storyline surrounding Kip Sabian and Penelope Ford and his complete absence from any of the championship pictures. But that could potentially all change this week, as Miro will challenge Darby Allin for the TNT Championship after severing his ties to Sabian. Fans were tweeting about the matches long before AEW Dynamite began, hoping to see “The Bulgarian Brute” pick up a dominant win.

Darby Fires Back
You say Darby’s this & Darby’s that I know exactly who I am.

Do you know who you are Miro? You show up the hottest free agent just to talk about video games and be some best man. You’ve gotta be the most underwhelming Thing I’ve seen.
You ain’t taking shit away from me. https://t.co/yMR9K5TcEN
