Matt Jackson struck Jon Moxley with an exploding superkick during the Anarchy In The Arena match at AEW Double or Nothing 2023.

In a recent interview with “Sneaker History,” Matt discussed planning the spot and why he thinks it doesn’t get enough credit.

He said, It’s something I came up with, and the fact that it came out as great as it did is when we were in Las Vegas at Double or Nothing 2023, and I had the Across the Spiderverse Jordan 1 sneakers. I blew them up, essentially, in someone’s face. I superkicked Jon Moxley and I had a pyrotechnic attached to the sneaker. It created this giant fireball in his face. It was so shocking. Nobody saw it coming. It was almost this two or three second delay of, ‘Wait, what?’ No one understood what they had just seen. It was really cool because it took a lot of work. I had to get my Nevada state license as a fireworker, I think they call it, I had to go through rehearsal. We had to really make sure this thing was going to work. There is a good chance that it wouldn’t have worked. So the fact that it worked, and worked as well as it did, that’s one that maybe isn’t talked about enough. People send my private messages all the time, ‘I love this moment,’ but I feel it’s kind of forgotten. Maybe because it was among such a crazy match that night where a million other things things. That was a really special moment with sneakers.”

Jackson will be in action tonight as The Elite (The Young Bucks, Hangman Page, Jack Perry, and Kazuchika Okada) face off against Team AEW (Swerve Strickland, Mark Briscoe, Darby Allin, and The Acclaimed) in a Blood & Guts match on AEW Dynamite: Blood & Guts in Nashville, TN.
