Jon Moxley Considered Not Re-Signing With AEW

Jon Moxley made his debut at AEW Double Or Nothing 2019 and instantly became a huge star there. He has truly been one of the most consistent and dependable stars in the company as well.

As previously reported, the current AEW World Champion recently signed five-year contract with AEW, ensuring he will be with the company for a very long time. He will also be a trainer and coach as part of that new contract.

Not only that, but he will also be working fewer indie dates because of his new contract. In fact, he will no longer be working in GCW, Defy, or The Wrestling Revolver. While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that due to these restrictions, Moxley considered not re-signing with AEW at one point in time.

“I know at some point he discussed… I don’t know how seriously, but just being a free agent and doing that as opposed to signing a new deal.”

After three years, Moxley thought he would take part in the independent scene, but he ultimately came to genuinely appreciate AEW. We will have to wait and see how he will be booked in the coming weeks.
