ORIGINAL: Following his debut at AEW Double or Nothing, where he took out Chris Jericho and got into an extended brawl with Kenny Omega, AEW tweeted out that Jon Moxley is officially part of AEW. 411’s Jeffrey Harris was part of the post-show media scrum where Cody confirmed that Moxley has signed a multi-year deal with AEW.
Moxley’s debut comes after the former Dean Ambrose left WWE. Reports indicated that WWE had offered Moxley a big-money contract to stay but that he left due to frustrations with WWE’s creative direction.
