Mox just made history tonight by being the first ever wrestler to hold the top WWE, AEW, and NJPW championships.

Jon Moxley is now officially the first wrestler to hold the WWE, AEW, and IWGP Heavyweight championships.
EDIT: Beaten by like, five seconds lol

Glad to see one member of The Shield still doing well.

We couldn’t make it a full week without a Shield member holding a world title!
In all seriousness though, good on Mox. New Japan needs the shot in the arm he can provide and it makes his eventual AEW return more interesting.

First American to hold the new version of the top title, joins Vader, Norton, Sapp, Lesnar and Styles as the only other Americans to win it. Also only the second time the top title has changed hands outside Japan, the other being Okada winning the old version in MSG.

I heard Naito was pretty banged up so his reign wasn't gonna be very long
They chose the best choice in their transitional period it feels like, star power, their belt being able to be shown on mainstream TV, even be defended there, and likely have Mox defend, even possibly lose it in June at Forbidden Door
Makes sense why Mox and Claudio weren't in the tag tourney if this was the big plan.

As long as it's okay with his family I'd like him to go FT in Japan for six months or so. AEW's main event scene is crowded with Swerve, Ospraey, a returning MJF, Hangman, Okada, and a possible surprise push (Jay White, Darby) all in line for title shots and runs over the rest of 2024. He also seems a bit stagnant in the BCC. Have him take a break after losing the title and then return to America in early 2025 as a fresh face to challenge whoever is champ.

Yet again patience is rewarded. Folks be out there tripping because they aren't in the tourney. People would be happier if they would let things ripen.

That's awesome, I hope we see more AEW sending talent over to NJPW for stuff like this. For the talk about them poaching talent, it'd be good for their partnership/alliance to send people over, whether it's someone big like Moxley or someone who could use an excursion to grow like Perry. AEW has a huge enough roster that you can send folks away for a bit and let them do other promotions and it can really freshen folks up.

well damn. that rules but I hope they keep him off AEW until it is near Forbidden Door time, having that be his return and the twist of him being on the other company's top of the mountain is tasty. like mention he won the title but let the audience not think about him much until he returns and you really don't know if he's with AEW.

Do you think they'd do Mox vs Danielson for the NJPW Title??
