5 Things Jon Moxley and Death Riders could do to take AEW hostage on Dynamite
AEW star Jon Moxley has been terrorizing everyone in AEW with his Death Riders. He has been on a path to waking up every star who has been collecting paychecks and not giving their heart and soul to the company.
First, the AEW World Champion dethroned Bryan Danielson. Not only did he defeat him, but he made an example out of The American Dragon by decimating him at WrestleDream pay-per-view. Then, he went after Private Party, Dark Order, Top Flight, and other AEW stars.
The One True King is feuding against Orange Cassidy and will face him at Full Gear. While the Freshly Squeezed refused to step in to be a leader before, he decided to go after Jon Moxley after he decimated his friend Chuck Taylor. Their rivalry has been off the charts, with Cassidy showing his true potential.
In the recent edition of Collision, the AEW World Champion tried to help the Death Riders during their AEW World Trios Championship contest against Conglomeration. The former International Champion also followed him, and both sides brawled together, with Moxley and his faction retreating.
Recently, AEW announced that Jon Moxley will take over TBS SuperStation on an upcoming Dynamite episode. It will be interesting to see if he has any demands or wants to claim another victim.
Let's take a look at some of the announcements he could make after he decides to hold up the AEW's production hostage.
#5. Jon Moxley could announce a WWE veteran could be on their way to AEW
With Full Gear just around the corner, huge matches are being set up. Orange Cassidy and Jon Moxley will headline the show for the company's top prize. The Puryevor of Violence storming the SuperStation could mean a massive deal.
Jon Moxley could tease the arrival of Shane McMahon while AEW Dynamite is stalled. Shane O'Mac could debut at Full Gear pay-per-view, revealing himself as the operator of Death Riders.
#4. Jon Moxley could trick Orange Cassidy
The Freshly Squeezed has repeatedly fallen off the AEW World Champion's trap. Moxley baited Wheeler Yuta, his former friend, and threatened to attack him. A similar lure could be set up on Dynamite when he seizes the TBS production.
After Orange did a beatdown on Moxley, he must have carved a plan to pay him back. It will be interesting to see how the One True King executes the ploy.
#3. Might threaten Tony Khan to give the Death Riders the charge of Full Gear
The AEW President has rarely been featured on TV while developing storylines. He appeared on the program during the Elite storyline, during which they ambushed him. History could repeat itself when Moxley holds Tony Khan hostage to fulfill his demands.
Being in charge of the event could benefit the Death Riders as they will turn results in their favor.
#2. Ricochet to be his next target?
The One and Only star has great potential as an athlete but always falls short in character. Jon Moxley could give him the headstart for a distinct gimmick. Even in AEW, he has impressed everyone with high-flying moves but hasn't developed a personality yet.
In the upcoming Dynamite, the Death Riders could target Ricochet as their next victim, who hasn't used his full potential. As he's already in the title picture against Konosuke Takeshita, the True King may motivate him to win the International Championship.
#1. Could this be a setup for Samoa Joe's return?
The Samoan Submission Machine has been absent since July 2024 after being written off by Chris Jericho. He was missing from the company because he was busy with Twisted Metal's shooting. However, the show's filming has been wrapped recently, and the star is reportedly on his way to the company.
On Dynamite, the Puryevor of Violence could start a brawl between the Death Riders and the Conglomeration as he commands his group from the SuperStation. This could be the perfect instance for Samoa Joe to return as he stops the chaos to end the Dynamite.
It will be interesting to see what goes down on Dynamite when Jon Moxley seizes the SuperStaton.
