Moxley Retains IWGP World Championship in Brutal Match

Summary

– Jon Moxley retains his IWGP World Championship against Konosuke Takeshita.

– Takeshita targeted Moxley’s injured arm throughout the match.

– Moxley’s win means Takeshita doesn’t get a title shot, but the feud with Don Callis may continue.

After defeating Tetsuya Naito to become the IWGP World Champion at NJPW Windy City Riot, Jon Moxley was embroiled in a feud with Don Callis and his faction. Following a successful title defense against Powerhouse Hobbs, Moxley was called out by Konosuke Takeshita, marking the beginning of a new rivalry.

Eager to prove himself, Takeshita had to earn his shot at the IWGP World title by defeating Moxley at AEW Double or Nothing. The stakes were high as the two men faced off in a match filled with intense action right from the start. Takeshita used Moxley’s injured arm to his advantage, making the bout one of the most brutal and hard-hitting of the night.

Despite the relentless assault on his injured arm, Jon Moxley defied the odds and secured a pinfall victory over Takeshita. With this win, Takeshita is now denied a shot at the IWGP World Championship. However, the rivalry with Don Callis and his faction is far from over, and it will be interesting to see how this storyline unfolds in the coming weeks.
