Jon Moxley isn’t holding anything back as he gears up for one of the most anticipated main events of AEW Full Gear. The AEW World Champion is set to put his title on the line against Orange Cassidy, and if his recent comments are any indication, fans should brace for a brutal showdown.
Speaking with TV Insider’s Scott Fishman, Moxley hinted that his clash with Cassidy will be a spectacle like no other. Aware of the stakes and the price tag of a pay-per-view event, Moxley promised to push the envelope for fans in attendance and those watching at home.
“If we’re asking people to pay a little more on pay-per-view, I’m going to give them a little more,” Moxley shared. “I can’t juggle or dance or do cartwheels for you, but I can put my elbow all the way into Orange Cassidy’s face to see how much of his skull I can get. I can see if I can snap his arm so loud that it reverberates through the audio and picks up on camera.”
Moxley also offered a glimpse into his unflinching approach to violence, describing a group chat where he and others exchange clips of gruesome injuries like “really bad cuts and hematomas and snaps.” While others may feel queasy, Moxley says he’s unfazed: “It doesn’t bother me. I have an iron stomach for that kind of stuff.”
But don’t mistake him for someone who craves all kinds of gore. “I don’t like to watch horror movies. The real world is scary enough,” Moxley admitted. “But if someone’s arm gets snapped or a leg breaks, everyone wants to throw up. It doesn’t bother me at all.”
Fans can expect that raw intensity to come alive at AEW Full Gear, with Moxley promising nothing short of mayhem. “Since it’s pay-per-view, I will try to give that to the fans in New Jersey and fans watching on pay-per-view. Something really heinous in the main event on Saturday night.”
Jon Moxley isn’t just defending the AEW World Title—he’s raising the stakes for violence and intensity in pro wrestling’s main event scene. With his promise to deliver “something heinous” at AEW Full Gear, fans are bracing themselves for a brutal clash that could redefine what it means to go all out on pay-per-view. Whether you’re Team Mox or backing Orange Cassidy, one thing’s for sure: this match is going to be unforgettable.
As a reminder, Ringside News will have live play-by-play coverage of the event over in our AEW Full Gear section.
