Matt Hardy came to the ring for the main event of the April 14 Dynamite by himself. He claimed he didn’t want any help taking Darby Allin’s TNT championship. Well, except for the help he got from weapons like a steel chair in this Falls Count Anywhere match.
As soon as Matt got in trouble though, the Hardy Family Office ran in. That opened the flood gates, as Sting led Dark Order ringside to even the odds. Lance Archer came out to keep Ethan Page & Scorpio Sky from stepping to Sting before order was restored.

Okay, not really. But at least Sting was able to throw the champ his bat. Before he could use it, Hardy hit Allin with a low blow.
Mr. Money is fighting dirty tonight!

A Twist of Fate with a chair followed, and when they battled backstage, the veteran jumped from a ladder to leg drop Darby through a table.

None of those things put Sting’s protégé away, however. Back in the arena, Darby returned the low blow. Then he retrieved the bat and went to work on both Hardy and to clear the announce desk. That’s where he laid Matt out so he could climb the scaffolding for a big Coffin Drop!
⚰️ Drop for the Win! Somehow, Someway, @DarbyAllin prevails over @MATTHARDYBRAND to retain the #TNTTitle!
