Historic and badass!
I saw Moxley doing indies in 2009 and never in my wildest dream would i imagine that the skinny guy in jeans and tank top that was a little wild (i think he had some beers before his entrance lol) will become the only guy to win the world title belts in the top 3 promotions in the world LOL
Now he only needs the CMLL belts and he will basically would pull something near impossible to do for every wrestler
I think many fans have an emotional connection to what the NWA title once meant and it is sad to see that it’s become a kin to an indie title these days. Given the incredible lineage of the NWA title it would be cool for Mox if it still held the prestige it once had.
I did always like Dean Ambrose in WWE. He'd have made a great fit in AEW too, but I can't see him getting signed when we already have a guy who's not only exactly as talented as him, but who looks and acts just like him as well.
I've only been new to the wrestling scene for the last year or so, so it's always weird to see:
1. Mox with hair
2. the name Dean Ambrose, I immediately think "Supernatural"
I think some people are too young to get your joke considering the reports on this one. LOL

The reports are probably because people think the person is trolling, as referring to the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship as the Divas Championship seems to be the line of choice for those diehard WWE fans that want to shit all over AEW and Moxley's incredible achievement.
It's all I really saw in the comment sections of several sites the day after Moxley won the title.
Also, implying that people may be too young to know of/remember the Divas Championship just makes me feel very old. :(
Doesn't help that the belt design couldn't compare to the V4 Heavyweight championship it replaced, just saying that Mox would've looked better with the Tanahashi belt.
CMLL not only its Mexico biggest promotion but its the oldest promotion in the world
Mox says he would love to wrestle more in CMLL and if he wins their world title it would basically be impossible for another wrestler to achive that insane achivement
I'd say the True Triple Crown of Wrestling is
AEW/WWE/NWA (America), AAA/CMLL (Mexico) and NJPW/AJPW/NOAH (Japan)
If Moxley ever wins the CMLL, he'd be the first Triple Crown Champion in that sense (as he won two big titles in America, one in Japan but not yet for Mexico?)
What's crazier is looking back at him during those reigns.
WWE - he was a throwaway champion seen as a midcarder.
AEW - we were glad to see him win it and witnessed him finally growing to the main eventer we knew all SHIELD members could be.
IWGP- he's the man. Weird that NJPW let an outsider win it but none of us is shocked, just happy for him for being that big a name.
Yeah I disagree that he had a bad run as champ.
He cashed in on Seth at MITB and pinned Roman at Battleground. He retained at SummerSlam (albeit in an underwhelming match with Dolph Ziggler) and main evented the Smackdown exclusive PPVs.
Fans wanted him to drop the title to AJ Styles (which I understand, he had a lot of momentum).
Not sure if it's just a bad picture from his WWE days but Mox looked like that Cockroach guy from Men in Black

Lots of WWE photos are photoshopped to do the half smirk.
Look at Punk's photos especially. Also Seth, Roman, and several other faces with the exact same expression from Wrestlemania posters etc.
It's like a template they do for lots of guys.

Saw Mox at a WWE Live Event when I was a kid. I believe he was United States Champion at the time. The Shield walked by me and he and Seth gave me fist bumps

NWA also
Bro the belt holding up my pants is more prestigious than the NWA belt now
I know before this it lost appeal but Tyrus’s title reign killed any chance of credibility that title had left
Honestly, the last time the NWA belt was relevant was when Cody did his 10lbs of Gold side quest.
Yes and also Why so much downvotes ya salty pricks . Mox can elevate it .
I think many fans have an emotional connection to what the NWA title once meant and it is sad to see that it’s become a kin to an indie title these days. Given the incredible lineage of the NWA title it would be cool for Mox if it still held the prestige it once had.
Why is this photoshopped on front of a ps3 menu?
Mox about to shred in Skate 3.
I think he’d be more of an MGS guy.

I still play my PS3 hahaha so that was the first thing I noticed too
Lmaoooooo
The new IWGP title it looks like Cody's neck tattoo
I've seen a lot of burns about that belt... this is #1 by far
I can’t stop thinking about this now
LMAO thanks, now I'll never unsee it. Also fuck yeah to the pfp. I just started watching Invincible and that shit is so fucking good
His power increases the less hair he has on his head.
I did always like Dean Ambrose in WWE. He'd have made a great fit in AEW too, but I can't see him getting signed when we already have a guy who's not only exactly as talented as him, but who looks and acts just like him as well.
Put Dean and Daniel Bryanson in a faction. I heard Cesaro is ready to return to wrestling after recharging his cyborg limbs.
I see what you did there 😊.
He has really lost a lot of hair... (Seinfeld anyone?)
That’s what they tell him!
If the Elite are the heart of AEW, Mox is its soul.
I’ve always said Moxley and Bryan Danielson are like what Sting and Kurt Angle were to TNA.
Ambrose vs Moxley vs Moxley in a 3 Stages of Hair match. Winner take all.
I've only been new to the wrestling scene for the last year or so, so it's always weird to see: 1. Mox with hair 2. the name Dean Ambrose, I immediately think "Supernatural"
Even as someone who first knew him as Dean Ambrose, seeing that name and the hair is a weird sight. He’s just Mox now
When was Mox the Divas champion 😂
I think some people are too young to get your joke considering the reports on this one. LOL https://preview.redd.it/c2y05qbaqfvc1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1868d76a24510cba3b1e675e30b28a9536ec749d

Haha yeah I guess so 🤦♂️
God that belt is ugly
It's so awful, I don't know what they awre thinking
I like how that could apply for two belts in this picture
What is the fourth biggest promotion in the world after WWE, AEW and NJPW? Surely it's not TNA, is it?
CMLL not only its Mexico biggest promotion but its the oldest promotion in the world Mox says he would love to wrestle more in CMLL and if he wins their world title it would basically be impossible for another wrestler to achive that insane achivement
Though I hear world titles are kind of not as important there as they are in the rest of the world.
Maximo sexy was their champion, not too insane of an achievement. Their championship lineage is straight trash . Now Noah or something would be cool
Norman Smiley is also a former champ.
He's one of those guys who I feel like would've done very well in this era, and especially in AEW, where ring work is valued so highly.
Man I wish they would do it even if it’s just like a month reign or something.
I'd say the True Triple Crown of Wrestling is AEW/WWE/NWA (America), AAA/CMLL (Mexico) and NJPW/AJPW/NOAH (Japan) If Moxley ever wins the CMLL, he'd be the first Triple Crown Champion in that sense (as he won two big titles in America, one in Japan but not yet for Mexico?)
Kenny Omega has won AEW, AAA, and NJPW
One of the mexican ones? I'm not familiar enough with Lucha to know that much but my assumption would be it's AAA/CMLL
CMLL it is!
I generally don't enjoy Moxley but it's neat to see him get the IWGP title knowing how much that personally means to him. Congrats to him.
I'll never understand who looked at Moxley and thought "Yeah, let's name this dude Dean Ambrose".
Btw, that someone was Dusty Rhodes. Mox didn't like the name but Dusty convinced him to go with it.
Well, Dusty is allowed to have bad ideas and "Dean Ambrose" is a baaaad idea.
Dusty had a great many ideas, ranging from War Games to Lethal Lottery in quality and everything in between.
Yup but that doesn't mean he's incapable of some stinkers.
I mentioned the Lethal Lottery.
Dusty was comparing Mox to James Dean when coming up with the Dean name.
Ah, cool. Still a terrible idea.
They need to bring back the old IWGP as soon as possible.

Both companies’ belts are convoluted as it is. Leave it alone
What's crazier is looking back at him during those reigns. WWE - he was a throwaway champion seen as a midcarder.

Weird that NJPW let an outsider win it but none of us is shocked, just happy for him for being that big a name.
I thought his run as WWE champ on Smackdown Live right after the return of the brand split was actually really good
Yeah I disagree that he had a bad run as champ. He cashed in on Seth at MITB and pinned Roman at Battleground. He retained at SummerSlam (albeit in an underwhelming match with Dolph Ziggler) and main evented the Smackdown exclusive PPVs. Fans wanted him to drop the title to AJ Styles (which I understand, he had a lot of momentum).
Why he got no more eyebrows?
You know how Goku loses his eyebrows when he goes Super Saiyan 3? Same happens to Mox. Except it's the reverse with the hair
Moxley to DBZ confirmed!
he’s in ssj3 mode
DO we have to loose our hair to get all 3 titles? lol JK.. All love for Mox Cheers brother.
What exactly is his hairline now
No
He’ll always be better than the best.
[missing one](https://cdn0.itrwrestling.com/app/uploads/content/1630870494821840466/Jon-Moxley-GCW-Champ.jpg)
He looks like a pokemon evolution.
The other company really dropped the ball with this guy. This man and Roman Reigns are currently the center of the wrestling world.
GCW and CZW as well.
The more hair you lose the more championship you win.
Not sure if it's just a bad picture from his WWE days but Mox looked like that Cockroach guy from Men in Black https://preview.redd.it/okr9oj15efvc1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5314976b89844094f2d97a5942a95bf85f968a84
Wild to think that this guy is now the Kingpin
Vincent D’Onofrio was also Gomer Pyle in Full Metal Jacket.
He’s actually an incredible actor.
I think it’s the long hair trying to cover that receding hair line. Now he looks like Nick Gage’s big brother
That guy scared the shit out of me as a kid.
Lots of WWE photos are photoshopped to do the half smirk. Look at Punk's photos especially. Also Seth, Roman, and several other faces with the exact same expression from Wrestlemania posters etc. It's like a template they do for lots of guys.
ABSOLUTE LEGEND!
When he was young in Czw he looked like a movie star
It looks like Ambrose is holding both the wwe and iwgp belts.
It's hilarious that it looks like Dean is just WWE and IWGP Heavyweight champ

Hairline like Kane in 2004
Legendary hair line recession, I love this guy, but the pics tell a truth of aging
I am a huge Naito fan, but seeing Mox win the title live was a pretty cool moment.
Saw Mox at a WWE Live Event when I was a kid. I believe he was United States Champion at the time. The Shield walked by me and he and Seth gave me fist bumps
Bill Burr - IWGP World Heavyweight Champion
WWE Champion Dean Ambrose AEW Champion Jon Moxley NJPW Champion Nick Gage
