Jon Moxley Pulled From AEW Dynamite

Jon Moxley Pulled From AEW Dynamite

AEW president and CEO Tony Khan has taken to Twitter to announce that World Champion Jon Moxley has been pulled from tonight’s episode of Dynamite on TNT.

Moxley was set for a match tonight ahead of defending his title against Brian Cage at Fyter Fest, but the match tonight will no longer be happening, and instead Cage will be in action once more with Taz on commentary.

Khan tweeted:

Recently Jon Moxley had contact with someone who had contact with someone who has COVID-19. Mox did the right thing & warned us. Doc asked him to stay home & get tested to protect us here at our test site. Cage will be in action tonight on #AEWDynamite ahead of their title fight

Jon Moxley can get slammed on a car, crawl through tacks & fall through the stage, but it’s every bit as cool that he came forward & told us he’d had secondhand exposure to COVID. We test everyone here at #AEWDynamite, but Jon protected everyone onsite like the great champ he is

This comes just following the news that QT Marshall has also been pulled from tonight’s show after having contact with someone who since tested positive. FTR will now be facing SCU instead of the Natural Nightmares.

In another change, as you’ve probably heard by now, Matt Hardy will now be facing Santana instead of Sammy Guevara after inappropriate comments Guevara made in 2016 resurfaced.
