Top Flight are an American professional wrestling tag team consisting of real-life brothers Dante Martin and Darius Martin. They are currently signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW).
History[edit]
Independent circuit (2016-2020)[edit]
Top Flight began teaming together in 2016, for independents in their native Minnesota area. Though they were inactive for much of 2020, the Martins did wrestle for a handful of notable indy organizations, including Ireland's Over the Top in February (as The Flip Bros), the Illinois-based AAW, Game Changer Wrestling, and Black Label Pro.
AEW (2021-present)[edit]
On the October 21 taping of AEW Dark, Top Flight made their AEW debut, losing to Dark Order's Evil Uno and Stu Grayson. Later they were given another opportunity, this time defeating Baron Black and Frankie Thomas. On the November 18 episode of AEW Dynamite, Top Flight made their official in-ring debut in a losing effort against The Young Bucks. Less than a week later, Top Flight were officially signed to AEW.
A few months later, Darius suffered a torn ACL, putting the team on hold. This gave Dante an opportunity to focus on singles competition. The injury sidelined Darius for about a year. On the March 2nd episode of Dynamite, Dante reunited with his brother Darius in the tag team Casino Battle Royal, where Darius would last until the end, with Darius being eliminated by Matt Jackson of The Young Bucks.
