Tony Khan recently praised Jon Moxley.

After a successful run in WWE, Jon Moxley joined AEW in 2019. Since then, he has become a regular feature on TV. Mox has become Tony Khan’s go-to guy whenever he needs someone to carry the company. Moxley has won multiple World Titles in the Jacksonville-based promotion and is one of the most decorated wrestlers in the company.

Mox’s passion for All Elite Wrestling is seen in his body of work. He has been present at almost every show and barely takes any time off. Mox has also delivered some stellar matches and uplifted a lot of stars to his level. His current work with the Death Riders and Will Ospreay has been outstanding. Since joining AEW, Mox has established himself as one of the very best professional wrestlers of this generation. He even garnered a lot of praise from his boss.

Tony Khan says Jon Moxley has been great backstage

During a recent interview with Wide World of Sports, Tony Khan said that he has had a lot of help from people around him when it comes to every show. He revealed that Jon Moxley is doing a great job backstage and has been at everything. The AEW boss also stated that he has been at every show since the company’s inception in 2019.

“I have a great group of people in each of the sports – I have great executives, coaches and people to talk to and lean on. The thing with wrestling that’s very different is there’s no off-season. We have a great group, but I’m generally the only person who comes to every show. In recent years, [star wrestler] Jon Moxley is doing a great job backstage and has been at everything … but I have been at every AEW show since the beginning. It’s a lot of travel, but I love it,” said Tony Khan. [H/T Nine.com.au]
