WWE and AEW have established an evergreen rivalry in just five years of coexisting with each other. It is often said that the biggest hits of AEW originally made their name from WWE. But, Darby Allin is a big exception to this unwritten notion and has immensely thrived amongst the pro wrestling fans. Interestingly, a Darby Allin design modeled after WWE 2K24 is blowing up people’s minds. In fact, Allin is generating more hype than several other official WWE Superstars because of his in-game character.
WWE currently has the upcoming WrestleMania XL as its biggest Premium Live Event attraction, and WWE 2K24 is becoming the talk of the town. Several fans are already living the ultimate experience thanks to the video game. And the dynamic gaming community for WWE 2K24 is now buzzing with excitement over the Allin design. Let’s take a closer look at this development.

Darby Allin embodies the horror character archetype. This is one of the most challenging molds in pro wrestling. Especially when legends like The Undertaker and Bray Wyatt have raised the bar way too high. Despite this, Allin hasn’t just managed to gain the attention of fans but also held it captive.

A recent tweet on X by Fightful Wrestling wrote, “This Darby Allin WWE 2K24 CAW is insane! 😲😲😲 Credit to @RebelCaws.” The tweet also carried an ultra-definition image of Allin which looked very lifelike.
This drew a lot of attention and pro wrestling fans immediately flocked to admire the digital masterpiece. Darby Allin recently won the AEW World Tag Team Championship with ex-WWE legend Sting.
Despite the spotlight on Sting who recently hung the boots on his prolific pro wrestling career, Allin still managed to imprint his on everyone’s minds. So much so, that the replication of the exact unforgettable face is giving them the chills.
This resulted in several fans throwing in their comments of appreciation. But, the praise was extraordinary, just like Darby Allin and his character. In fact, fans didn’t mind being a little hysterical in their praise for the lifelike piece of art.
When fans went all-in with their compliments for WWE 2K24
The precision, dexterity, and skill of the designer were highly praised by everyone. One of the fans simply refused to believe that this was a 3D model.
That's just a photo of Darby and nothing is convincing me otherwise.

The sentiment was further echoed by another Darby Allin fan who said that the design wasn’t created but superimposed with an image.
Yo what? That looks scanned into the game

Considering that this was made by an independent artist and not 2K studios, a fan asked WWE to get the genius artist on the payroll.
How can they create such a realistic character , WWE should immediately hire the men who create this kind of masterpiece
