Who could have laid Jon Moxley out on AEW Dynamite?

The build for Jon Moxley vs. Kenny Omega at Winter is Coming on AEW Dynamite has been solid, including the surprise attack on the challenger from the Champion, as he was making his entrance, but there's an additional layer for fans to sink their teeth into.

During the contract signing segment on AEW Dynamite last week, Kenny Omega did make his way to the ring but Jon Moxley, the fearless lone wolf was nowhere to be seen, something not in line with his character at all.

It turns out that Jon Moxley was laid out in the backstage area and nobody knows which member of the AEW Dynamite roster was responsible for this cowardly attack!

So, let's look through the AEW Dynamite roster and cross Kenny Omega off the list because it would be far too obvious if he was the culprit.


#5 Is Hangman Page going for Jon Moxley next?

The consensus on the internet is that it was Hangman Page that attacked Jon Moxley, judging from the fact that he was laid out in the hangman tarot position on AEW Dynamite.

It could be overthinking on the part of AEW fans but a fight between Hangman Page and Jon Moxley makes all the sense in the world because these are two men that rely more on their fists and forearms when it comes to telling stories in the ring, as opposed to say, doing a million flips and somersaults.

Hangman Page has all the potential in the world to be the face of the company and he may, in fact, maybe the man that takes Jon Moxley down by becoming the next AEW World Champion. Now that he's out of the tag team division at long last, the possibilities are limitless for this talented young man.

#4 Could Miro climb the ranks by gunning for Jon Moxley and the AEW World Championship?

Miro and Jon Moxley could have a main-event worthy match in just about any promotion across the world, but in his current avatar, Miro needs a major change and upgrade to be seen as an equal of the World Champion.

Miro came into AEW with a lot of promise, with pundits proclaiming that Tony Khan would know how to book him a lot better than Vince McMahon did, but the fact of the matter is that he has not been used to the fullest of his potential, feuding over video games and not appearing like the beast he is.

All of it could be set to change if he is allowed to be the man that perpetrated the attack on Jon Moxley, to set up a feud with him for the World Championship.

It may be just what the doctor ordered to launch Miro to the next level and remind the world exactly what a monster he can be when the chains are finally off.

#3 Could Matt Hardy cement his heel turn on AEW Dynamite by attacking Jon Moxley?

So, Matt Hardy brought his 'Broken' persona to AEW Dynamite but for one reason or another, it did not take off as one would have hoped when he first arrived. Matt Hardy and Sammy Guevara went to war at AEW Full Gear in what seems like the final 'Broken' universe match and from the looks of it, he has now turned heel on AEW Dynamite out of the blue.

He has adopted a motivational speaker gimmick on AEW Dynamite and from the way, he addressed the AEW Universe (is that even the right term?), he looks down upon them, and he considers their lives pedestrian. As the victim of a backstage attack in the past, could Matt Hardy channel his newfound heel-ness to secure a World Championship shot against Jon Moxley in a battle of the veterans?

It would certainly be fun to see Jon Moxley out of his element in a cinematic match if they decide to go that route on AEW Dynamite or indeed, on pay-per-view.

#2 Is young Powerhouse Hobbs looking to make a mark on AEW Dynamite by taking down Jon Moxley?

Will Hobbs is now going by the name Powerhouse Hobbs and is officially a member of Team Taz on AEW Dynamite meaning that the company has a lot of faith in the young man judging from how the spotlight has been on him since his recent heel turn. And why wouldn't he be a featured member of the AEW Dynamite roster if you consider the way he looks, the way he works, and the potential that he possesses? So, does Tony Khan have enough faith in young Powerhouse Hobbs to have him go for Jon Moxley?

One has to assume that the answer is yes, and if so, he could certainly be the man who laid the Champion out on AEW Dynamite, to secure a future title shot against the man.

Even if he comes up short against Jon Moxley, it would be a big step up for Powerhouse Hobbs. Plus, imagine the crazy Taz vs. Mox promos!

#1 Could someone new be headed to AEW Dynamite to take on Jon Moxley?

Erick Redbeard could be on his way to AEW Dynamite and the best way for him to make an instant impression upon his arrival could be to take down the World Champion, Jon Moxley. Do check out the exclusive interview he did with Stephanie Chase from Sportskeeda by clicking on the link here, and you'll instantly know why this intelligent and well-spoken man would be the right candidate to bolster the AEW Dynamite roster.

If you discount Brock Lesnar, Erick Redbeard is probably the biggest star that could come to the AEW Dynamite roster at the moment and his size and physique make him the ideal candidate to contest for the AEW World Championship against Jon Moxley.

Plus, Jon Moxley and Erick Redbeard are obviously friends from their time in WWE and these two men may want to have this big match.
