Moxley faced Lionheart Chris Jericho in a rematch that stemmed from their Revolution 2020 championship bout, where the former won. In an extension of the ongoing Blackpool Combat Club vs. Jericho Appreciation Society feud, the Wizard challenged Mox to a title match a few weeks ago.
Speaking on The Jim Cornette Experience, the former WWE manager initially gave props to the title bout for trying. Cornette added that the match tried to duplicate Ric Flair-Ricky Steamboat and Terry Funk-Jack Brisco NWA World Heavyweight Championship showdowns.
However, the 60-year-old downplayed the match and proceeded to call Moxley a mechanic from Secaucus, a small New Jersey town.

After the match, Blackpool Combat Club and Jericho Appreciation Society went at it in another all-out war.

As the topic continued, Cornette blasted the post-match melee between the BCC and the JAS. The WWE legend deemed the fight to be nothing but fake, from punches to kicks.
Later on, CM Punk weathered the storm for the babyfaces as he shockingly returned to AEW programming following a foot injury. The reigning AEW World Champion went face-to-face with the interim world champion as they will now look to unify the titles.
