Jon Moxley Could Have Walked Into WWE SummerSlam As AEW World Champion

Jon Moxley debuted at AEW Double Or Nothing 2019 and became one of the mainstays of the company since then. He continues to be an integral part of the company and no one denies that fact. Moxley decided to shock fans with some tidbits about his contract recently, as Moxley claimed that he could have walked into WWE SummerSlam last year with the AEW World Title.

CM Punk caused another storm after he went on a scathing rant in his now-deleted Instagram story. In his story, the Second City Saint targeted Jon Moxley, Dave Meltzer and Chris Jericho.

CM Punk claimed that Jon Moxley did not want to put over Punk during their feud. Punk also called Chris Jericho a liar and a stooge. As previously reported, Punk and Moxley also had legitimate heat in AEW.

While speaking on The Sessions with Renee Paquette, Jon Moxley responded to CM Punk’s Instagram story and dropped a bombshell. Moxley claimed that he was not under contract during the Summer last year and added that he could have walked into WWE SummerSlam last year with the AEW World Title.

It’s f*cking annoying. Just because somebody said some stupid s**t on social media, like that’s not news. But it is. It ends up being a thing. I don’t wanna get dragged into this dumb sh*t. I could f*cking unload on a lot of f**king people right now. And when I start getting dragged into this sh*t, it tempts me to do that. But I’m not gonna f*cking sink to that level.

“But, I will say this, just gonna give you like a tidbit of information from my point of view. The entire summer, I was not under contract. No contract. Free agent. I was at SummerSlam weekend wrestling f*cking Desperado and sh*t, the day of SummerSlam. F*cking suplexed him on a bunch of aluminum cans and sh*t, cut in half, it was f*cking dope.

“I could have walked into SummerSlam that night. With the AEW f*cking belt. If I had been so inclined. Nobody knew that because I don’t put my sh*t out there in the world and let everybody know every f*cking thing about my business, you know. I was not under contract.

This is certainly an unexpected development and certainly puts things into perspective. Now we will have to wait and see whether Jon Moxley will end up confronting CM Punk in the future.
