Tony Khan doesn’t believe Jon Moxley is being genuine with his current intentions for the company as AEW World Champion.
All Elite Wrestling President Tony Khan was a recent guest on The Battleground Podcast. When asked about the briefcase Jon Moxley carries around, Khan said he presumes it contains the AEW World Championship and points out the hypocrisy of how Mox and the Death Riders are handing things in the company right now.
“Well, I think we all presume the championship belt is in there,” Tony Khan said. “And it’s something we all want to see, is the AEW World Championship. It’s a beautiful, beautiful belt. I think it’s the most beautiful belt in pro wrestling, and Jon Moxley keeps it hidden away.
“He says it’s a symbol of vanity, the championship belt, but I think Jon Moxley trying to control the championship, trying to control things in AEW, shows that that’s hypocrisy from the Death Riders. And I’m very, very excited about tonight’s show, including that AEW World Championship match Mox versus Hobbs tonight.”
