Jon Moxley has been at the top of his game since joining AEW and has also made big moves outside of the promotion, especially in NJPW.
Over the past few months, Jon Moxley has been involved in stellar feuds against CM Punk, MJF, and Hangman Page. In a recent interview with NJPW, Moxley's AEW colleague Kenny Omega taunted him for failing to live his lifestyle.
Omega is no stranger to competing in New Japan, where he has won the G1 Climax. Moxley himself competed in the grueling tournament but failed to make it to the final four.
"I’m starting to hear all these stories about people that want to do what Kenny did, live the lifestyle that Kenny lived. I first heard that with Mox [Jon Moxley], when AEW first started. He said ‘I want to live a month in Kenny’s shoes, I want to try the G1. I want to see how tough it is’. And how did that go for you, pal? He didn’t even make the top four. He certainly didn’t make the finals, and he certainly didn’t win the tournament on his first effort like I did," said Kenny Omega.
