As PWMania.com previously reported, following his defeat by CM Punk at AEW All Out 2022 for the world title, Jon Moxley was not initially slated to appear on this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite.
The following is what Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com had to say about Moxley’s plans being changed during his appearance on Wrestling Observer Radio:
“Moxley had an entire storyline that had nothing to do with the championship or anything like that. He was gonna be off. He even mentioned on TV that he was going on a vacation. The storyline had to be thrown out, because him and Chris Jericho, who was also not booked on the show this week, they were both called and told ‘the show that we had and the stars that we had — we had 4 main stars who are not on the show this week and we need you back.’ There was a team meeting before the show, and unity and everything like that.”
As previously mentioned, a talent meeting took place prior to Dynamite that was led by Moxley, Jericho, and Bryan Danielson.
