Report: Jon Moxley Had No Plans For WWE Return

With the news that Jon Moxley has signed a new five year deal with AEW it surely puts to bed the notion that Mox could return to WWE in the near future.

Fans were quick to link Moxley with a return to WWE after Triple H took charge of the company, but it seems they couldn’t have been further from the truth, with a report from Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio stating that Mox had no intention of returning to WWE:

“I think the key to all of this is you know, he signed a five-year deal. So as far as why so long? I think the answer was that he just felt… he’s not going to WWE. He doesn’t want to go to WWE, doesn’t want to put on of wanting to go to WWE and play both sides to get more money. He doesn’t want people speculating that he’s going to WWE. He wants all speculation over, and he’s with AEW for five more years. I know at some point he discussed… I don’t know how seriously, but just being a free agent and doing that as opposed to signing a new deal,” said Meltzer.

Since becoming 'All Elite' at Double or Nothing 2019, Moxley has been one of AEW's biggest and most well-protected stars, with many believing that Moxley is currently on the best run of his career.
