Darby Allin: Whoever Is Ride Or Die With AEW Is A Pillar In My Eyes

Darby Allin doesn’t like the pillar term and questions how MJF can even consider himself to be one.

All Elite Wrestling‘s Darby Allin recently sat down with Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful to discuss a wide variety of subjects. When the topic of four pillars was brought up, Allin made it clear that he’s never been a fan of that term.

“Yeah, I don’t know. I never liked that term, pillars. Never liked it, never liked it,” Darby Allin admitted. “I think it’s a cute catchphrase Max came up with. To me, pillars, it feels like we’re above people when we call ourselves pillars, and I honestly feel like whoever is ride or die with this company is a pillar in my eyes. So it takes more than just four guys, and you got a guy like MJF; how can you really call yourself a pillar when you don’t even know if you want to be here in 2024?

“So, like I said, instead of making a shirt with four dudes on it, put the whole roster. Put everybody because we’re all pillars, man. We all gotta grow this company. It’s so new. So no, I don’t like calling myself a pillar. But I do like the fact that we are four homegrown talents getting in that spotlight. That’s awesome. But a pillar? No.”
