Jon Moxley cleared to compete outside of AEW during WrestleMania week
One of the most prominently featured wrestlers in AEW is former WWE Champion Jon Moxley. It was recently reported that the Blackpool Combat Club member has been cleared to wrestle outside of the Jacksonville-based promotion during WrestleMania weekend.
In the world of pro wrestling, the busiest time of the year is during WWE's WrestleMania weekend. Several smaller promotions try to conduct events in and around the area as they can pull in more fans than usual. The promotions also tend to make use of the most popular stars during the time as well.
One wrestling event scheduled to take place over WrestleMania weekend is the ninth edition of Bloodsport. MMA fighter and pro wrestler, Josh Bernette revealed via Twitter that his former rival Jon Moxley will be one of the main attractions of the event.
"What would a Bloodsport show be with out one of its staples? A man of controlled chaos. A man without fear of any challenger. A man born to fight. Jon Moxley is back at Josh Barnett's: Bloodsport 9," Josh Bernette tweeted.
