AEW Continental Champion Jon Moxley is set to defend his title in a highly anticipated rematch against Konosuke Takeshita at Revolution 2026 on March 15. This match, scheduled for the major event, will feature a new stipulation: there will be no time limit, eliminating the possibility of a draw that affected their previous encounter.
Moxley initially captured the AEW Continental Championship by winning the Continental Classic tournament at Worlds End 2025. After undefeated runs across several title eliminator matches, he made his first successful defense at Grand Slam Australia 2026. The contest against Takeshita in Sydney ended in a 20-minute time-limit draw, which left both competitors eager for a decisive result.
Details on Previous Encounters and Upcoming Rematch
The Sydney match between Jon Moxley and Konosuke Takeshita was a physically demanding, closely contested bout that concluded without a winner due to the 20-minute time limit. Despite Moxley retaining his title, both wrestlers expressed interest in a rematch. The rematch was officially confirmed by All Elite Wrestling on their X (formerly Twitter) account, revealing the removal of any time limit to ensure a conclusive finish.
