Closing out the 5/12 AEW Dynamite was the TNT Championship match between champion Darby Allin and challenger Miro. Going into this match, it was Darby’s ninth defense of the championship.
Miro and Allin’s match went 10-plus minutes and the final sequences were a series of near falls that led to Darby attempting a Coffin Drop. He was caught by Miro and choked out and a new champion was crowned. This is Miro’s first title win in AEW since arriving to the company in September of 2020.
