Jon Moxley to drop his title to 51-year-old WWE legend at AEW Dynamite Maximum Carnage? Potential twist explored 

At AEW Dynamite Maximum Carnage, AEW World Champion Jon Moxley is scheduled to defend his title against Powerhouse Hobbs. The 39-year-old became champion at WrestleDream by defeating his former stablemate, Bryan Danielson.

Ever since Moxley won gold, he and his faction The Death Riders have been wreaking havoc in All Elite Wrestling. Their modus operandi is violent and they have brutalized several names in the company in the last few months. Interestingly, there is a huge possibility that his reign will end soon. Many stars want to become the company's World Champion. However, Mox might drop his belt to former WWE Superstar Christian Cage.

With the help of his faction at Maximum Carnage, Moxley might defend his title successfully against Hobbs. However, after this match, the Death Riders could be attacked by Rated FTR and The Outrunners. The Learning Tree could also show up during this segment. Amidst the chaos, Christian Cage could cash in his World Championship contract (which he won in a 12-man Casino Gauntlet match at All In 2024) and become the new champion.

If Tony Khan books Captain Charisma to become the new world champion this week, it will make for some must-see TV.

Ahead of Maximum Carnage, Jon Moxley was interviewed by CityBeat. In this interaction, he praised his opponent Powerhouse Hobbs for his impressive size and strength. In addition, he stated that the former TNT Champion is terrifying:

"I’m defending the AEW championship on Wednesday against Powerhouse Hobbs. He has the opportunity of a lifetime. He won a lottery ticket and he has absolutely nothing to lose. He’s physically bigger, physically stronger. He’s not a scared kid — he’s a mean, terrifying adult man...," said Moxley.

It will be interesting to see what the future holds for Hobbs.
