Jon Moxley was forced pull out of AEW’s upcoming PPV All Out in Chicago later this month due to a staph infection in his elbow. Yesterday, AEW published Omega’s reaction to Moxley being off the PPV as he was filming promotional content for the PPV when he learned the news. Today, AEW released the full video featuring Omega cutting a scathing promo on Moxley.
Omega asked for some time to collect himself after finding out the news. When the cameras cut back to Omega, he had the following to say to Moxley:
“Did I go to Japan and wrestle 24 days of the month before fighting you? No, you see, I did this thing Jon, it’s called being a professional. What am I supposed to say? I was ready, I took you seriously, I never got myself injured, I got myself in the best shape of my life. You never took me seriously, you never took this PPV seriously, you owe everyone an apology, you owe me an apology, and you should really look in the mirror Jon, you should look in the mirror and you should ask yourself ‘what the f**k am I doing?”
Omega also insinuated during the interview that some fans might be viewing him as the “bad guy” in this situation.
“This is a real serious injury, it could have happened to anyone, right? You were careless, I blame you. And if people want to look at me like I’m the bad guy, well geez, they are just as bad as you are Jon.”

Kenny Omega on Jon Moxley
“Wow, what a sad story, right? Don’t you feel sorry for Jon Moxley? I mean he just showed up, he defied the wrestling god and he came to AEW, threw me off a stack of chips and then went on this journey, a warrior’s journey. He wanted to know what it was like to live a month in the life of Kenny Omega’s shoes.”
Omega is now scheduled to face PAC on the PPV.
