Jon Moxley managed to find success during his run with WWE when he won the WWE Championship, and Moxley immediately entered the main event scene when he jumped ship to AEW back in 2019.
Moxley managed to capture the AEW World Championship at the Revolution pay-per-view in February of 2020, and he later dropped the belt to Kenny Omega in December.
It’s been a little while since Jon Moxley has been involved in a main event feud, although he is currently competing in the AEW World Title Eliminator Tournament. Disco Inferno recently discussed Moxley’s status on the Keepin’ It 100t, and he criticized Moxley for wrestling in violent matches while saying that the former champion has taken a step down.
“Main eventers don’t bleed all over the place with flashlights and lightbulbs. Any main eventer in any major company that you view as a main event talent, they should not be doing that. Plus, he (Jon Moxley) isn’t a main eventer, he was a world champion, so he has taken a step down. What are they doing? Put him in the main event, and he’s like more of a draw.”
Whether or not Jon Moxley can get back into the title picture remains to be seen, but he will be facing Orange Cassidy in the semifinals of the AEW World Title Eliminator Tournament. Bryan Danielson recently defeated Eddie Kingston to advance, so it will be interesting to see if he faces Moxley or Cassidy in the finals at the Full Gear pay-per-view on November 13. Stay tuned for updates.
