Jon Moxley reveals why he went to rehab | The Sessions with Renee Paquette

[@realjabroni3830]

Meeting Jon Moxley in Colorado Springs was an absolute pleasure. Him being strong enough and brave enough to get help is a huge inspiration. I respect the hell out of him for his decision. Happy to hear him share his recovery story and inspire others.

[@draconian45]

I was on painkillers for years and finally quit in 2012. But even though I wanted to quit even sooner than that...the withdrawals were awful, so I just kept taking the pills to stop the withdrawals. It no longer had anything to do with my back pain.

As your body gets older & you have the task of taking on more responsibilities in your life you come to the realization that you & your family & your body can no longer handle what you once could do when you were young . I , now that I’m older can’t take drinking anymore , it sucks waking up with a hangover at 49 years of age . Just sucks Luis my body can’t handle it anymore . I had my fun back when I was younger & I have more responsibilities to take on . Hey John , just wanted to say Hello to a fellow Cincinnatian , I know you grew up in the East End , I myself am from the West side , Price Hill to be exact . Hey just keep on doing you man that’s all you can do & you do it better than anyone else .

[@AwkardCommentz714]

I drink a lot of beer a lot. I don’t care what time. I don’t care what’s happening. I respect the institutions that I need to respect, and I won’t drink during those times. I drink like a fish. But my brain would be like “Bro take a fucking break!” I’d take a week off. The brain fires the command, but I have to maintain it. All of the stresses of life, your problems. You’re awake at night worrying about a problem you can’t solve at 2:30 in the morning. But you can’t sleep. You think a beer or a shot of bourbon or whiskey will help you doze. And you’d stay awake. But you stay awake without it. You think I can’t sleep. With addiction, you can recognize that you have a problem. But your body doesn’t give a fuck. I do take breaks. Last as long as two weeks usually. But when I get back, sometimes it feels like “Ah! Welcome back! You gotta make up for the beer you missed!” I think my addiction is mental because I’ve never experienced physical need. Never had physical issues. Just an extremely strong thought that says “Hey. Good job getting your keys in the door right. Go get a beer.” And you could be like no. Absolutely not. As you’re protesting, your body crushed two pints. It’s embarrassing protesting something you’re engaging in at the same time. I hope I can find the strength to stop like you did.

give credit to renee she stood by him and she just had a baby this is one strong couple thumbs up to both

[@nepmagnum4299]

A few more reasons added to an uncountable number of reasons to love mox. I consider sting as my only goat and mox is already a legend and by the time he retires he might be my other goat. Just because of him i continued watching pro wrestling cuz' i almost left watching wrestling when he left wwe and then he went to aew, njpw and simply everywhere. He introduced me to njpw, aew and a bunch of more indy promotions. I watched his old crazy hardcore indy stuff and i am glad that he is still going strong. Had he retired after the rehab i would have left watching pro wrestling. I love this guy for introducing me to another universe of pro wrestling which i really enjoy. I only wish him good health and a good life, he already has an amazing wife and a little baby girl. He has already won in his life. I wish him the best that could happen to him.

[@gaz-atolla7519]

Mad love and respect for Mox knowing that he needed to get help and going out and doing it before something bad did happen I've had issues with drink and drugs in the past and had to hit rock bottom before I dragged myself back up I still have the occassional drink or two (at weddings and things like that) but I know where my limits are and I do not cross that line because I have so much more to lose now than I did back then because I have a good job as well wife and kids who love and depend on me and make me a better man

[@JustPassingThrough98]

I hope there are people that watch this that feel like they can’t do it. That it’s so much more of a show of strength than weakness to ask for and seek help. And getting this help won’t make everything perfect and easy, but it’s the first step that has to be taken on the road to recovery. Having an understanding and supportive partner certainly helps a ton

[@taylormademyself89]

Gone through same kind of things he went through so I can understand the feeling of changing ya life without the things u use to cope with life thinking ya don't need them but ya still do it ,to finally stopping and continue the battle everyday after.

Also, i smoked more cigarettes in treatment then any point in my life even more than full blown fentanyl and cocaine addiction. And was also vaping too alongside the smoking.

Your experience could have saved a life that night straight thru today talking with your wife. Family is so important thru this, and they are the 1st we typically push away or leave them in denial.

I became a huge fan of Moxley when he debuted in WWE as Dean Ambrose. When I saw him debut in AEW to work with my long-time friend's dad, Tony Schiavone, I freaked the fuck out. I only get to see Tony on special occasions (usually a big football viewing event like Super Bowl or College Football Championships). But whenever I do, I geek out with him about WCW/AEW. My friend Chris is probably annoyed that I want to talk to his dad more than him :D I was a big fan of Renee in WWE as well. When I found out later that these 2 were a couple I was like, "well, no shit! they are both badasses!" Love everything you guys are doing.
