During a new episode of his “Extreme Life” podcast, Matt Hardy delved into Jon Moxley’s storyline of invasion in AEW, identified him as the optimal contender to end Bryan Danielson’s professional wrestling journey, and win the AEW World Championship.
Here are some key takeaways of the discussion on the podcast:
Commenting on Jon Moxley’s AEW invasion narrative, he expressed, “Jon Moxley, in my opinion, is perhaps the most secure option, particularly for ending Bryan Danielson’s career and holding the title in this phase. The invasion storyline in AEW puzzles me a bit. If these guys are the outsiders, why are they being repeatedly let in? The entire scenario can be perplexing to some extent. A lot rides on their strategy and its execution along with coming up with ingenious ways to steer this saga towards a finale that gives a satisfying payoff to the audience.”
When quizzed about Darby Allin’s potential to become a future AEW World Champion, he responded, “It wouldn’t come as a shock to me… Darby stands out as an extraordinary individual. His uniqueness strikes me as reminiscent of Jeff. Existing in his own world, they inspire envy in people like myself. Now, in terms of him becoming World Champion, or an Academy Award winner for that matter, he is an original. His innovative and high-stake tactics, which deviate from the norm, are truly eye-catching. I wouldn’t strike that off the table. I can, at some point, envision Tony Khan putting Darby in the frontline to claim the ultimate honor.”
