32-year-old star wants to dethrone AEW World Champion MJF after he 'executes' Jon Moxley
A 32-year-old star recently talked about 'executing' Jon Moxley and then winning the AEW World Championship from Maxwell Jacob Friedman (MJF). The star in question is NJPW's Great-O-Khan.
Jon Moxley will return to New Japan Pro-Wrestling after four months on November 3, 2023, when he takes on Great-O-Khan at NJPW Power Struggle. The former AEW World Champion's last match for the Japanese promotion was in July when he defeated El Desperado in a Final Death Match at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan.
During a recent interview with Tokyo Sports, Great-O-Khan had strong words for Moxley and MJF. The NJPW star said he would execute Moxley during the showdown and would turn his attention to Maxwell Jacob Friedman's world title, which he won last year at the Full Gear pay-per-view from Mox.
"After I execute Jon Moxley, AEW should offer me MJF's head at Tokyo Dome. He's an interesting guy. I will take the AEW World Championship that MJF took from Moxley," Great-O-Khan said.
Jon Moxley last wrestled at Dynamite: Grand Slam on September 20, where he defended the International Championship against Rey Fenix. During the match, the 37-year-old suffered a concussion, and as a result, the company reportedly decided mid-match to crown Fenix as the new International Champion. Rey Fenix lost the title to Orange Cassidy at Dynamite: Title Tuesday.
Moxley has been cleared for in-ring competition as per recent reports, and appeared on the most recent edition of Collision: Battle of the Belts to indulge in a brawl.
AEW World Champion MJF set to face two members of Bullet Club Gold
MJF is embroiled in a rivalry with Bullet Club Gold and will defend the world title at the Full Gear pay-per-view on November 18, 2023, against Jay White, who stole the championship belt from the Salt of the Earth a few weeks ago,
However, Friedman has another hurdle to cross before Full Gear as he will face Juice Robinson on the upcoming episode of Dynamite.
Last week, Robinson won the Dynamite Dozen Battle Royal and will vie for the Dynamite Diamond Ring, which has been in MJF's possession for the past four years. The ring has become a crucial part of The Devil's gimmick, and the 27-year-old has put down many opponents using it as a weapon.
