Jon Moxley Apologizes For Missing OTT Date For AEW House Show, Promises To Make It Up

Jon Moxley was originally scheduled to compete at OTT ScrapperMania on March 18, but had to miss the show due to AEW running it’s AEW House Rules event on the same day in Troy, Ohio. 

AEW sent Eddie Kingston, who unfortunately missed the show due to COVID, in his place. 

Speaking to Renee Paquette on The Sessions, Moxley commented on taking indie bookings and missing OTT. 

“I don’t know how many (Indies) I’ll do this year. What I don’t like is, I have to be really cognizant of not pushing myself too hard. I’m a very foot-to-the-gas pedal person, and I don’t know any different. If I’m feeling really great, I’ll be like, ‘I’ll book myself for six Saturdays in a row and wrestle 20 minutes on Dynamite every week.’ Then you get halfway through that and you’re like, ‘Oh man, I’m pretty beat up. Maybe I should take a week off,’ but then it’s too late because if I do an Indie show, tickets are sold and the whole thing is built around me and they’re streaming it. I can’t just call off. I have to go. Then, I have commitments to AEW. The thing with OTT the other week, I was fucking furious about, just because…totally happy to do a house show. You’re telling me I’m doing a show and I only have to drive 90 miles, great, what better way to spend a Saturday night. I was already booked on that day. It’s just this weight, the days that I missed when I was in rehab, I missed a DEFY show, a bunch of AEW shows, and a pay-per-view. Having that weight on my back of a date that I feel I have to make up, I feel so bad about it. I hate having that weight. Now, I still have to go to OTT. I probably shouldn’t advertise it because I don’t want to jinx it. I’m just going to show up. I will make that day up. Sorry about that unfortunate circumstance, fans in Ireland,” said Moxley.

It is unknown when Moxley will appear for OTT Wrestling.
