Jon Moxley, the current AEW Continental Champion, was given a surprising new nickname by a prominent wrestler ahead of a crucial match this weekend. Moxley is scheduled to compete in multiple high-profile matches, including a title defense and a mixed tag team contest at events in Australia.
Upcoming Matches Highlight Moxley’s Busy Weekend
Moxley will defend his Continental Championship for the first time since capturing the title by winning the Continental Classic tournament at Worlds End 2025. His challenger this Saturday at Grand Slam Australia is Konosuke Takeshita, following Moxley’s success in several title eliminator bouts.
In addition to this title match, Moxley will also take part in a mixed tag team match at AEW House Rules in Brisbane on Sunday. He will partner with Marina Shafir from the Death Riders stable to face Orange Cassidy and Toni Storm, who have issued a challenge to Moxley and Shafir ahead of the contest.
“Foxy Moxy”: A New Moniker Emerges in Promotional Content
During a recent promotional video shared by All Elite Wrestling on X, Orange Cassidy and Toni Storm addressed Moxley and Marina Shafir directly. In addressing Moxley, Toni Storm called him “Foxy Moxy,” seemingly introducing this as a new name or nickname for the AEW star.

Adding to the tension, the mixed tag match at House Rules includes a high-stakes stipulation: the losing team will have their heads shaved, putting extra pressure on both sides, including the Death Riders’ representatives.
Moxley’s Recent Trios Victory Builds Momentum
Earlier this week on AEW Dynamite, Jon Moxley teamed with Claudio Castagnoli and PAC to secure a victory over Konosuke Takeshita, Josh Alexander, and Mark Davis of the Don Callis Family in a multi-man trios match. This win sets an intense backdrop ahead of Moxley’s title defense on Saturday at Grand Slam Australia.
The outcome at Grand Slam will prove crucial for Moxley, as fans eagerly await to see whether he can maintain his status as Continental Champion against Takeshita, who has been a persistent challenger.
Anticipation Grows as AEW Fans Await the Showdowns
Jon Moxley’s weekend schedule reflects his active role in AEW’s evolving storylines, competing in both singles and tag team formats. The new nickname “Foxy Moxy” adds an unexpected twist to his persona, while the head-shaving stipulation raises the stakes for the House Rules match.
With battles lined up against established stars such as Konosuke Takeshita, Orange Cassidy, and Toni Storm, Moxley’s performances in these contests could influence AEW’s championship scene and the Death Riders’ standing moving forward.
