FIRST TIME MATCH UP! Moxley vs Swerve for top spot in Gold League standings! | 12/13/23 AEW Dynamite

[@wshutson0304]

I was there and that crowd EXPLODED for both competitors! What a match to watch live!

[@cristianperez784]

Swerve Strickland is for sure a future AEW world champion and it needs to happen in 2024

[@joshuacassidy430]

Agreed

[@denny720]

Let’s hope so Fingers crossed 🤞

[@cliffordjackson3]

ALL FACTS NO CAP.

[@forgottenmma3694]

Lets hope he gets the TNT belt from Christian first

[@TweetieAshton]

Stricklen should have won.

[@chinonoelmoreno]

It took a while but Strickland is finally getting the spotlight he deserves and i love it

[@00pium_kingvampstan]

Same, I’ve been a fan since his Killshot days! Never knew he was Killshot, till like half way into 2020. So happy he’s getting appreciated by the audience.

[@AirJordan420]

But they had him lose this match to overplayed Moxley who lost to OC…

[@davidkosiba624]

Took a while? Idk what people expect , you guys would complain if a new guy comes in and wins everything right away but y'all also complain that he gets a proper build up before getting a big push 🤷

[@dannyknightblade4592]

​@@AirJordan420 Good point! How does Jon Moxley lose clean to comedy act Orange Cassidy yet defeat Swerve Strickland?! AEW really needs to fix their booking problem.

[@stocking69]

​@@dannyknightblade4592 because oc is a beast swerve has also lost to oc

[@wstine79]

They barely start the match and already Jon Moxley and Swerve Strickland are getting "HOLY $H!&!" chants. That's high praise.

Nothing amazing happened here 😂

[@Lele-fu7fw]

And high talent from both

[@MrEmpireBuilder0000]

This Tournament is the best test ever. Just pure fighting. And we know many of these matches are two of the best guys on top. Moxley is such a legend by now. And Swerve is on his way to the top as well. Hangman doesn't even need a belt anymore. He's already a made man.

[@latestred6510]

Besides the kissing 💋 you mean. An Swerve jumping onto his back for no reason- "roll up" finish. And the predictability of 9 out of every 10 matches.

[@theaterthug7]

MOXLEY A LEGEND? Wow..........

[@LouSassoleSledgecock_III]

Lol Mox isn’t a LEGEND 😂🎉🎉🎉🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪😜

[@katakuna185]

Hope Mox realizes he literally does NOT need to bleed every match to make it mean anything, each f/u, transition and spot he and Swerve did made the crowd POP for what's gonna happen next.

[@samrouse3643]

I couldn’t agree more

[@beep6437]

​Moxley has not blooded in quite a while and blood matches are cool to it bring me back when ECW was around

[@danbaby2740]

Mox needs to stop wrestling... Simple

[@seekthevisceral]

Sometimes, the audience can make the match better. The build up of 'Let's go Moxley' and 'Let's go Swerve'. You can see the wrestlers giving their all, as a thank you. Let's go Wrestling.

[@purwantiallan5089]

[@jonathankeeter4042]

An incredible match between Swerve & Moxley.Both men deserved a standing ovation.

[@azimisyauqieabdulwahab9401]

But what happen after the match in the backstage

[@ricardosalazar1150]

So glad they protected Swerve with this match being technical. We definitely need a match between these 2 down the road.

[@cliffordjackson3]

FACTS dude.

[@dannyknightblade4592]

Having Moxley win was a terrible booking decision. Moxley doesn't need this victory; and it's sad that he's hindering Swerve's momentum. Swerve Strickland should be the one to win The Continental Classic tournament and not Jon Moxley. I think a bit less of Moxley for not putting Swerve over.

[@KR-jg7gc]

​@@cliffordjackson3aew paying u 😂

[@kadharefinley224]

OMG this was an amazing match, Mox and Swerve was laying it all out there for the win. I agree with the finish because it protectes Swerve and hopefully he can bounce back. Jon Moxley is the first person to gain 12 points in the Gold League

[@denny720]

I agree but I was still rooting for swerve to walk away with the win.

[@JanMichaelTurla]

If Swerve wins his next match and Mox loses to Jay White, we will have a tie-breaker!

[@cliffordjackson3]

FACTS.

[@amartripathy]

It was a roll up sequence but He held the tights

[@MrMctuck]

That's nothing compared to a Davey Boy Smith Chinlock.

Mox lost to Orange do ion see how they trying to keep him strong

[@KimiMTZ17]

Paul Turner called the match between Rush and Moxley without checking if Rush was out last week, and tonight he counted the pin with Swerve's shoulder up... something's going on with this man!

This is the right move, loss is the right move, not only does the dirty roll up where Swerve’s shoulder are up makes him look strong but I don’t want Swerve winning this tournament and being held down by the ROH title and AEW’s new belt, he should be competing for the World championship, this opens him up for that, Moxley and Eddie would be a great final

I have a funny feeling swerve was supposed to win and the ref messed up and counted 3 instead of 2 when swerve lifted his shoulder.

He technically did and will later again.

First of all this match shouldn't have taken place until next week when they were both tied at 12 points. Secondly I like Jon Moxley but he doesn't need this victory and he should have lost to Swerve Strickland.

It would do no damage to mox to lose here but denting swerves momentum with a screwy finish.
