AEW introduced a new version of the TNT title that was revealed tonight on Dynamite.
Darby Allin entered the ring revealing a new design of the TNT title, which had a black strap instead of a red one. He participated in a weigh-in that also featured Brian Cage, who he will defend the title against next week on night two of New Year’s Smash.
The weigh-in ended when Allin prepared himself for a fight against all of Team Taz. Sting then came out to make the save, with Taz cutting a promo on the entrance ramp promising we’d see a new TNT champion next week.
It was noted during last week’s Dynamite post-show that Brodie Lee’s son, Brodie Lee Jr., would keep the TNT title given to him during last week’s Brodie Lee tribute show. It was also said that a new version of the TNT title would be given to Allin.
Allin has held the title for 59 days, defeating Cody Rhodes at Full Gear back on November 7 to win the title for the first time.
