ESPN Article on Moxley's Battle with Alcoholism

[lionheart21]

Found this article posted today. It's a great read and really shows why I have so much respect for Moxley, albeit some parts are tough to get through due to the topic at hand:

He also did an interview on Renee's podcast today that's similar to this but still worth listening to because of the dynamic between them.

I have tons of respect for Mox for recognising he had a problem and taking the steps to get it sorted. And for speaking out about it, both here and on Renee's podcast.

I'll definitely give that a listen, thanks.

Especially in contrast to how irresponsible Jeff Hardy is with his addictions, this makes me respect Jon even more.

"To admit that he needed help -- that took more manhood than not doing it," Moxley's close friend and fellow AEW wrestler Eddie Kingston said. "To me, being vulnerable, it takes a real man to be that."

Eddie speaking the truth.

I really hope someone like Jeff Hardy reads this and it gets into his cracks

In any case, I'm just very glad Mox addressed his issue straight away and showed a ton of bravery in doing so

Oh yeah, that quote in particular really stuck out to me. Eddie is absolutely right, there's no shame in admitting that you have a problem. It shows that you're willing to take the responsibility to change your ways, nor is there any shame in asking for help because of how tough the journey can be.

I love that so many of the male AEW wrestlers have spoken out about stuff like this. Mox, Eddie, Sting, Hangman, Dax... Admitting you need help or are struggling takes real courage and should be normalized. It's especially great hearing it from "tough" guys like Mox and Eddie.

Seeing Eddie Kingston in "Uncle Eddie" mode with Noah Huber is one of the most wholesome things on that note.

Those two have a lot of chemistry, I bet they're secretly dating.

Kidding aside, definitely going to check that out.
