Clash of Titans: Jon Moxley and Jeff Hardy Face Off in AEW Dynamite Opener

In the thrilling opening match of tonight’s AEW Dynamite episode, fans witnessed the historic showdown between two former WWE Champions as Jon Moxley and Jeff Hardy clashed in their first-ever singles encounter.

Breaking away from their shared history in WWE, Moxley and Hardy went head-to-head in a highly anticipated match that kicked off the show with a bang.

Despite their past connections, this marked the duo’s maiden singles face-off, adding an extra layer of excitement for fans tuning in.

In the context of AEW’s revived ranking system, every match holds significant weight, and Jeff Hardy is on a mission to climb the singles ranks in 2024.

Accompanied briefly by Matt Hardy, Jeff entered the one-on-one battle with Moxley, who, in turn, opted to go solo for this intense matchup.

Ultimately, Jon Moxley emerged victorious, but the post-match events took an unexpected turn. Jeff Hardy, displaying some continued heelish tendencies, opted for a provocative gesture instead of a sportsmanlike handshake with Moxley. The departure from the ring left fans intrigued about the future developments in Hardy’s character.

To further intensify the situation, Jon Moxley found himself at the receiving end of a beatdown orchestrated by several CMLL stars who were present at ringside during the bout.
