Jon Moxley is still your All Elite Wrestling World Champion after facing off against Darby Allin on AEW Dynamite.
In the biggest match of his young career, Allin proved himself as a game opponent that wasn’t out of his league against the champ. It looked like Allin was going to win the belt after he hit the champ with a Coffin Drop. This occurred after MJF was able to use a distraction by Wardlow to hit Moxley with his own belt.
Why the hell is @The_MJF getting involved?!

However, Moxley was able to kick out and kept fighting. Allin would go for another Coffin Drop, which was countered by Moxley with a rear-naked choke. That was enough to weaken the challenger and a piledriver almost ended his night but Allin kicked out. Moxley would finally retain the belt after hitting a Paradigm Shift.
