Wrestling legend Konnan has commented on Jon Moxley winning back the AEW World Championship against Bryan Danielson at Dynamite: Grand Slam.

After an intriguing battle between the two Blackpool Combat Club members, Moxley secured the win as Danielson failed to get out of a bulldog choke.

Speaking on the Keepin' It 100 OFFICIAL podcast, Konnan explained that Jon Moxley becoming world champion multiple times in the past has not spoken well of AEW's roster.

He also noted that there is no suitable contender for the former WWE Superstar right now.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

"You know it doesn't say a lot for your roster. If the guy just got beat by a guy, They sent the guy home right after the match and the market correction here just put it right back on the guy he beat. I am like alright, so who's gonna be, who's gonna beat this guy. He doesn't really have a challenger right now unless Wardlow steps up or Miro steps up stuff like he does not have a challenger," said Konnan. (26:10-26:38)
