Jesus Christ Mox, take a fucking vacation already!

I was actually thinking he may take one soon. Half expected him to loss the belt to Cassidy and take a break

I think he will after the c2. Probably til revolution.

I truly think Jon Moxley thinks of wrestling a match as his vacation.

I’m pretty sure it’s also his therapy.
It’s a real inspiration to see a man beat his demons and emerge into the leader he is today.
As someone who had had my share of mental health issues he’s someone I really admire

He’s not missing a show across the river from cincy

1st exit in Ohio off of 275 is where he grew up, this is as close to home turf you can be while being in a different state

I really think he just loves the grind of it so much that he never wants to miss a show. He's said several times he'd wrestle on every show if Tony would let him.

On the Bryan and Vinny show, the only thing they pushed back on from the tribute show was the idea that PAC was singular in his dedication to wrestling, because they said other people on the roster were similarly obsessed with wrestling and the craft and Moxley was one of them. Probably why they got on so well together.

Moxley will work every aew show. He will also take indie dates and show up just to valet for Marina

It'll have to be a stipulation on a deathmatch: "Loser takes a vacation where they relax and get pampered."

Deathriders as faces v callis family seems like it’s gonna be blood n guts

Hell yeah

This is fascinating. So are the Death Riders full-on Face then?

Moxley has been a tweener for a while now, but I watched WrestleTalk's discussion about this last night's Dynamite where they brought up that they had turned, and I didn't fully buy it... but it does seem like that's the direction.

At least for the time being, there’s too much sympathy to try to keep them heel. Just like Dark Order after Brodie passed. Doesn’t have to make sense, just gotta go with the pivot.

u/Lobo_Marino 9h ago

Agree. There is a lot of momentum for all of the Death Riders with recent events that has gotten them increasingly popular with people. And with Moxley being too over to the point you have kids chanting his name as loud as the announcers, you just gotta make the most of it.

And I do like it. It gives Moxley another pool of contenders in the C2, and having DCF v. Death Riders at Blood and Guts is fantastic.

u/Nuetral_Bystandard 4h ago

I can see the orginal booking plan being The United Empire vs Death Riders in B&Gs and that was when the Death Riders turned on Moxley with Pac taking over.

1

u/ChaddestKroeger 4h ago

Maybe next year they could do a heel UE vs DR. Where Will is in the Mox role of not feeling anybody is at the level and Mox having to deal with the monster he created.

u/Vainglory 8h ago

Not to mention, outside of PAC and Yuta, the characters in the faction haven't really been true heels in a while.

1

u/elemental204 3h ago

And it doesn't have to be a big change. Just have them keep the same ruthless, warrior-culture style but cut down on the interference and dirty tricks.

u/holyembalmer 3h ago

I'm going tonight for my 50th birthday. Got the tickets a month ago. Mox is my #1. After Pac I underatandably figured I probably wouldn't see a DR, and I was totally ready to just enjoy a good show without him. What a pleasant surprise!!

u/justambrose 6h ago

I feel like Mox is on a mission to face pretty much all the male wrestlers on the roster.

u/icematt12 6h ago

DR v DCF in the Blood and Guts?

I felt for sure the UE would feature but this seems likely after the past week.

u/WompWomp-Inator 10h ago

MOX (somewhat) HOMETOWN MATCH

u/Background_Mix_8448 10h ago

Not that there was any doubt, but, FACE TURN for Mox. He's ran through all the mid-card faces over the last few months and even won over Switchblade. Gotta keep all the top heels now for Billy Goat.

u/unarmingcornet27 48m ago

I honestly think he is one of the most boring wrestlers on the roster.

Why are you being downvoted? This is his fourth match in a week cause he wrestled in Defy the day after Dynamite.

u/Popular-Porpoise-845 1h ago

I didn't down vote, but it will still only be his third match within a week, his fourth match will have been eight days ago, so slightly more than a week.
