WBD’s Reaction to AEW’s Brutal Jon Moxley vs. Adam Copeland Spike Spot Revealed

AEW fans are still trying to wrap their heads around what they witnessed on the March 19 episode of Dynamite—a match so wild, so violent, it sent social media into a frenzy. But while fans were bleeding out in the comments, it turns out Warner Bros. Discovery isn’t raising any red flags.

The AEW World Title match between Jon Moxley and Adam Copeland wasn’t just your standard Street Fight. It was a no-rules war zone. From the moment Cope attacked Moxley during his entrance, it never let up. Blood poured. Bodies flew. And then it happened—Moxley was suplexed onto a literal bed of nail-covered spikes.

Yes, real spikes. Yes, they stuck into his skin. And yes, it had been teased for years.

Backstage reactions were filled with disbelief. According to reports, there was “a lot of disbelief that this finally happened after over a decade of teasing that type of thing on wrestling TV.” And yet, one of the biggest questions fans had afterward was: how did Warner Bros. Discovery feel about this airing on their network?

Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp answered that during his Q&A podcast, revealing “WBD and AEW have production meetings every Monday where they usually go over stuff and anything that might be possibly controversial. I’ve not heard of them having like any issues with it so far.” In other words, they’re cool with it. For now.

The visual of Moxley’s shredded back quickly went viral, while Cope’s vicious side added new layers to his AEW persona. Wheeler Yuta even had to yank the spikes out of Mox’s back post-match. Still, Moxley pulled out the win with a Death Rider and will move on to face Swerve Strickland at AEW Dynasty. But let’s be real—no one’s forgetting those spikes anytime soon.
