Jon Moxley defeats former WWE star after 1185 days

Tonight on Rampage, three-time AEW World Champion Jon Moxley defeated former WWE star Christopher Daniels.

The two stars collided for the first time on AEW television. The last time they wrestled each other was back in 2020 at Chris Jericho's Rock 'N' Wrestling Rager at Sea Part Deux. The Purveyor of Violence managed to pick up the win then, and history repeated itself tonight.

There was some anticipation for the match when it was announced this past Wednesday on Dynamite. Moxley and his faction, The Blackpool Combat Club, recently turned heel by taking out The Elite. Since then, they have had a target on their backs.

Meanwhile, Daniels challenged Katsuyori Shibata for the ROH Pure Championship and lost earlier this month. He wanted to redeem himself and get back to winning ways.

The wrestling veteran seemed to have the upper hand for most of the match, but despite all his efforts, former WWE Champion Jon Moxley picked up the win.

Following the match, Christopher Daniels was interviewed by Lexi Nair backstage. The wrestling veteran mentioned that he was looking to focus on winning championships. As he spoke, he was interrupted and ambushed by Blackpool Combat Club.

The Blackpool Combat Club is currently feuding with The Elite, and it seems like they may have started a new one with the wrestling veteran.
