This past week, AEW Dynamite aired from Canada. It was also the continuation of the Continental Classic tournament. In the Gold League, Jon Moxley wrestled Rush.
The match was as usual a hard-hitting bout. In the end, the three-time AEW World Heavyweight Champion won the match via referee stoppage. Following that, Jon Moxley sent a message to his next opponent Swerve Strickland.
“People acting all week like I was supposed to be scared of Rush. Supposed to be scared of this guy. He’s a lot of bark. Dudes been barking at me my entire life. And it never turns out that they have much bite. Was it a hard match? Yeah. Hell yeah. Will next week against Swerve (Strickland) be a hard match? Yeah. Hell yeah. But as they say, ‘It is a shame for the Helmsman to be surprised when the wind is unfavorable.’ This is the Continental Classic baby. It is supposed to be hard. Swerve Strickland has a lot of buzz. Buzz is cheap.
“Being at the top of this sport and staying there is another thing entirely. And it’s very very costly. And for a guy like you, in your position it’s right about now. When you realize it’s a prize you are not willing to pay, are you gonna be the guy that takes me out? Whatever will be, will be. Next week, Swerve Strickland, Jon Moxley, and the ghosts, and the demons that always chase me to the ring. This is going to be something you have never attempted to do before. And it’s going to be a long night. So I suggest you pack a lunch,” Jon Moxley said.
Moxley and Strickland are yet to taste defeat in the tournament.
Will Jon Moxley remain undefeated in the tournament?
