“If you don’t put the tag titles on them, I don’t know what you’re doing” - Wrestling legend slams AEW for Jon Moxley's and Bryan Danielson's booking
Former WWE Tag Team Champion Road Dogg has slammed AEW's recent booking of their tag team division. The Hall of Famer believes that Jon Moxley and Bryan Danielson should be the champions.
Moxley and Danielson have been members of the Blackpool Combat Club alongside William Regal since March 2022. As a duo, they have dominated nearly everyone who has stepped in their way.
Despite being one of the most popular teams in AEW, the former WWE Superstars have not had an AEW Tag Team Championship opportunity. The titles are currently held by Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus, collectively known as Jurassic Express.
Speaking on his "Oh You Didn't Know?" podcast, Road Dogg praised the AEW tag team division, but he argued that the titles belong to the wrong team.
“AEW’s got a great tag division, I don’t think they have their tag titles on the right people right now but that’s just my opinion," said Road Dogg. "I know the fans might argue differently but I just think they’ve got some really good teams.” (H/T Wrestling Inc.).
The veteran went on to suggest that if AEW doesn't put the belts on Moxley and Bryan Danielson, then they don't know what they are doing.
“If you’re going to use Jon Moxley and Bryan Danielson as a tag team, if you don’t put the tag titles on them, I don’t know what you’re doing,” Road Dogg said. “I think you put it on them and then you give back to some new younger team by getting them the carrot of beating that Blackpool Combat Club.” (H/T Wrestling Inc.).
Jon Moxley has the chance to bring gold to the Blackpool Combat Club
Despite not being in the AEW World Tag Team Championship picture, the BCC has a golden opportunity at the Forbidden Door pay-per-view on June 26th.
By defeating Kyle O'Reilly in the main event of this week's AEW Dynamite, Jon Moxley earned a spot in the match to determine the Interim AEW World Champion.
Moxley is set to face either Hiroshi Tanahashi or Hirooki Goto of New Japan-Pro Wrestling at Forbidden Door. At the NJPW Dominion event on June 12th, the two Japanese stars will fight it out for the right to face the former AEW World Champion.
The BCC already has the ROH Pure Championship, but Moxley may bring the Interim AEW World Championship home to the faction as well. Tune in to the event on June 26th to see how it all plays out!
