Jon Moxley went through his latest AEW World Heavyweight Championship defense during the latest AEW Dynamite episode. It came to an end in an unprecedented way following a sudden injury that also set things up for the main event of AEW Full Gear, earlier than expected.
In his hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio, Moxley put his title on the line against Adam Hangman Page in the main event of a special Tuesday edition of AEW Dynamite. The match ended early as Page picked up a legit injury.

A busted-open Moxley hit Page with a clothesline or lariat on the head, forcing him to land in an awkward way into the mat. The doctor checked on him, and Moxley was awarded the win via the referee stoppage. Page was taken out of the ringside area with a stretcher.
Moxley then cut a promo hoping and praying for the well-being of Page. The finishing sequence of AEW Dynamite was also improvised due to the injury as Moxley called out MJF to cash in his title match opportunity. MJF came out instead to inform that his Poker Chip will be presented for the AEW World Title match in the main event of AEW Full Gear 2022.
