Jon Moxley Out for AEW All Out

By Michael Heilman

One of the most anticipated matchups for All Elite Wrestling All Out Show won’t be taking place next Saturday as Jon Moxley confirmed on his Twitter account that due to an infection in his elbow, he is forced to pull out where he was scheduled to face Kenny Omega. Moxley suffered the infection while working in Japan. During his time in Japan, he recently competed in the New Japan Pro Wrestling G1 Climax tournament and is currently the IWGP United States Champion. Moxley recently worked last weekend’s shows for Northeast Wrestling.

I apologize to all involved, most importantly the fans. I am incredibly frustrated and pissed off. I'll have surgery this week to remove the bursa sac in my elbow and be done with it for good. Should be a quick recovery so I will be 100% for AEW Wednesday nights on TNT. — Jon Moxley (@JonMoxley) August 23, 2019

AEW Executive Vice President Cody Rhodes announced on Twitter that a replacement match for All Out will be announced soon and that they will try to reschedule the match in the near future. Not long after his announcement, AEW announced that Kenny Omega’s new opponent would be PAC.
