AEW President Tony Khan took to Twitter on Tuesday night and announced that Jon Moxley has entered an inpatient rehab program to treat his ongoing issues with alcohol. Khan noted that Moxley has allowed him to share the news publicly. He said,
”Jon Moxley has allowed me to share with you that he is entering an inpatient alcohol treatment program. Jon is a beloved member of the AEW family. We all stand with him and Renee, and all of his family and friends, as he shifts his focus to recovery.
Jon is making a very brave choice to get help, and we’re embracing his choice and supporting him however we can.
I’m proud to call Jon a friend, and like many of you, I’m also a fan of Mox and look forward to a time in the future when he is eventually ready to return to the ring. Until then, thank you for supporting Jon and respecting his privacy at this time.
If you or a loved one need help, please reach out to SAMHSA’s National Helpline: 1-800-662-HELP (4357).”
While Jon Moxley was originally set to face Orange Cassidy in the AEW World Title Eliminator Tournament, that will no longer be taking place as Moxley gets the help he needs. As of this writing, there is no word on who will be taking Moxley’s spot.
We send our very best wishes to Jon Moxley and his family.
Jon is making a very brave choice to get help, and we’re embracing his choice and supporting him however we can.
