A top AEW star recently revealed his conversation with Jon Moxley and claimed he doesn't care about haters.
The star in question is Eddie Kingston, who had a rivalry with Jon Moxley and the rest of Blackpool Combat Club earlier this year. The Mad King returned to AEW in June this year to take on BCC. He later teamed up with The Golden Elite and Tomohiro Ishii to defeat the villainous stable at Forbidden Door. Following the Cross-Promotion event, Kingston once again beat the stable at All In with the help of Pentagón Jr., Best Friends, and Orange Cassidy in a Stadium Stampede match.
While Kingston and Moxley faced each other multiple times in AEW, they have also teamed up in the past and faced several stars in Jacksonville-based company, including The Young Bucks. During a recent interview with Adrian Hernandez, the current ROH World Champion opened up about his conversation with the former WWE Superstar.
"Mox told me this a while ago, he said, 'If you’re not having haters by now in your career being on TV, then you’re not doing a good job,' and I’m like, 'Nah, you’re right,' and no one can take any of this away from me. Haters or whoever," he said.

The current NJPW Strong Openweight Champion also elaborated on the haters in the business.
"Yeah, I don’t look like the typical wrestler. I ain’t got [a] six-pack, I don’t have these huge a** muscles, you know what I mean? But the bottom line is, you can’t take away what I’ve done and what I’m going to do. So, sit there and hate all day bro, do you. Watch something else then. I don’t care. Watch wrestling. Just watch pro wrestling. I don’t care. I don’t care what kind of pro wrestling it is. Just watch it," he added. [H/T POST Wrestling.com]
