Many fans were surprised when WWE announced months ago that Jon Moxley would be parting ways with the company in April, and the wrestling community had a lot of questions following his WWE departure.
Moxley answered many of those questions when he showed up at AEW Double or Nothing, and he opened up about his WWE departure in a tell all interview on Talk Is Jericho.
Rajah is reporting that when Jon Moxley initially decided to leave WWE he told both Triple H and Vince McMahon that he planned to take a year off to “heal (his) body and (his) brain.”
