AEW TNT Championship Match Set for Grand Slam: France

Another high-stakes match has been announced for the upcoming Grand Slam: France TV special.

During tonight’s episode of AEW Collision, TNT Champion Darby Allin reflected on the scary events involving his tag team partner Steven Borden at All Out: Chicago. Darby admitted that he initially felt that Borden’s career was over. However, he was bolstered by Borden vowing to keep going during a conversation with him at the hospital.

Darby then turned his attention to Kyle Fletcher, noting that The ProtoStar never got a chance to reclaim the TNT Championship after he was forced to relinquish it due to an injury earlier this year. Darby said risking everything makes him feel alive and subsequently offered to put his title on the line against Fletcher at Grand Slam: France. AEW has since confirmed the match for this Tuesday.

"I'll see you in Paris, Kyle. I'll see you in Paris."
