Darius Martin Makes AEW Return
FTR made their way to the ring to begin the Battle Royale and waited for their first opponents. When the second team was ready to enter the ring, Top Flight’s music hit. Dante and Darius Martin made their way to the ring for the first time as a team in over a year. The duo last teamed in AEW in February of 2021 in a winning effort on AEW Dark against Fuego Del Sol and Jon Cruz. Shortly after that Darius Martin injured his knee and was out of action indefinitely. The last match for the duo was at an F1ST Wrestling show in February of 2021.
In his absence, Dante stayed in AEW and developed his singles career. He shortly joined Team Taz before double-crossing and making a quick exit from the team. It appears now he will be refocusing on his tag team career with his brother back in action.
