Jon Moxley Doesn’t Care About Loyalty To Initials, He Does Whatever The F*ck He Wants
Jon Moxley stands atop the mountain.
Jon Moxley defeated Tetsuya Naito to capture the IWGP World Championship at NJPW Windy City Riot. In the process, he became the first man to hold the WWE World Championship, IWGP World Heavyweight Championship, and the AEW World Championship.
A grand slam that no one else in the world can claim right now.
Speaking after his victory, Moxley thanked everyone who’s been alongside him in this journey, even Eddie Kingston, and expressed that he shows no specific concern or loyalty for a mere acronym. Moxley is more concerned about doing whatever the hell he wants.
“Thank you to my teammates, to my friends, to my family, even Eddie Kingston, everybody who has been with me on this 20-year fumble fuck of an up-and-down journey. I stand at the top of a mountain tonight that nobody’s ever stood atop before,” he said in his post-match promo. “You know what though? I don’t really give a fuck about belts, what three letters or four letters or five letters are on the name of the marquee, or the title, or the T-shirt, or the pay-per-view, or the letters on the belt. I don’t care. I go where I want. I do whatever the fuck I want, whenever the fuck I want. Nobody can stop me.
“Next time I come to Japan, I’m bringing this with me,” he continued. “So, arigato gozaimasu, Japan. I’ll see you soon. Before that, I got a message to send to everybody in New Japan Pro Wrestling all around the world. When you see what I do to my next opponent, when you see what I do to Shooter, how far I’m willing to go, what lengths I’m willing to go to, how much I just absolutely show no mercy whatsoever, even to people that I love, you will see things in a whole different light. Ren Narita, young boy graduated to dead man. Chapter 1 begins on May 11 in California at NJPW Resurgence.”
