Jon Moxley teased a big surprise ahead of tomorrow night’s AEW Dynamite as All Elite Wrestling aims to win the Wednesday night ratings war for the second consecutive week.
Mox showed plenty of moxie during his guest segment on The Dan Le Batard Show as the AEW World Champion talked he loves about the company, but also talked of wrestling’s new generation and what hardcore fans can get psyched about tomorrow night at 8 PM EST on TNT.
At one point during the interview, Moxley began talking about how long it takes his beat up boday to get ready for a workout in the morning and Le Batard pulled the old cautionary tragic tale of wrestlers like Mox being addicted to painkillers and dying early in life. Mox clarified the host, stating the world of addiction and substance abuse was of a previous time and era.
“Luckily our generation now, we’ve kind of left that to the generation past, learn from the mistakes of past generations. You really won’t see a lot of that anymore. We got a good, healthy, young generation you know. I’m the luckiest guy in the world, I’m the happiest guy in the world. I’m living my dream. I’m on top of the world right now. I’m AEW World Champion. I’m loving it. I’m part of the best wrestling product on TV right now, AEW Dynamite on Wednesday Nights.”
“The ‘lapsed fan’ they’re like, ‘I used to watch wrestling back in the day, but it got kind of corny I don’t watch it anymore.’ Well, you’re the kind of guy we’re trying to bring back in. Looped a lot of old fans in and made them fans again. AEW’s not the same old crap you’re used to seeing on TV that’s just kind of gotten lame. We’re exciting, we’re bringing out surprises, there’s basically no rules to what we do. You can see anything on Dynamite.”
Mox puts over the athleticism and mentions how nobody is under any restrictions. Everybody on the show “busts their ass” he said before he went in full promotion mode, saying that hardcore fans should get amped up for a big surprise tomorrow night.
“This Wednesday night is going to be an awesome show. I’m not going to spoil it, but I will tell you, I will give you this information: Tomorrow night on Dynamite, there will be a big surprise and one that made me exceedingly happy. Especially for kind of the more hardcore fans who kind of follow the scene around the world, you’re going to get a big surprise and it will be an even more casual fan or first time viewers, it will be an absolute treat to watch. I tell you this there will be an absolute kick-ass match tomorrow night.”
Le Batard commented on his promotional skills and Mox simply said, “I’m a professional dude, it’s not the first time I’ve done this.”
