Wrestling fans on Twitter have gone berserk since Jon Moxley made some surprising revelations while addressing CM Punk's recent controversial remarks.

The Straight Edge Superstar has become the talk of the town again, thanks to his since-deleted Instagram story in which he dragged Moxley for refusing to job to him last year.

In response, The Purveyor of Violence noted that he was "bending over backwards" for Tony Khan and CM Punk in the storyline. Moxley also confirmed rumors that he was working on a handshake deal last summer despite being the AEW World Champion.

He further added that he was contractually free to show up at WWE SummerSlam 2022 if he wanted to:

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

"The entire summer, I was not under contract. No contract. Free agent. I was at SummerSlam Weekend wrestling El Desperado and s**t. I could’a walked into SummerSlam that night, with the AEW f**king belt, if I had been so inclined. Nobody knew that, ‘cause I don’t put my s**t out there in the world and let everybody know every f**king thing about my business," Moxley said.

Jon Moxley's wild claim about nearly returning to WWE has left the Twitterverse contemplating what would have happened if he had confronted Roman Reigns. He would have opened the proverbial forbidden door between the two companies and laid seeds for a potential supershow.

Jon Moxley reacts to ongoing AEW drama

Jon Moxley has been in the wrestling business for almost two decades but probably hasn't been part of the locker room with never-ending backstage wrangling.

While speaking with his wife on The Sessions podcast, Moxley bluntly stated that he has never seen so much "bulls**t drama in one place" as in All Elite Wrestling:

"I spent eight years on the indies, spent a couple of years in WWE developmental, spent like eight years in WWE, I have never seen so much bulls**t drama in one place in my entire f**king life," he added.

CM Punk's future with AEW is in serious jeopardy, especially after his controversial Instagram rant.

With rumors insinuating that he's almost ready to return from a torn tricep injury, it will be interesting to see if Tony Khan brings him back despite his rumored heat with top locker room leaders.
