After his win, he challenged the former champion, Nick Gage, to a fight and cut a promo, saying that fighting him is like doing “drugs”.

However, he confessed he doesn’t like to do it but cannot be away from it. He also took a shot at Gage the time when he was doing his time in prison for an alleged bank robbery.

“Madison Square Garden, Grand Slam Champion, all those fucking toys and posters, they don’t mean shit. Getting mugged by fans in airports and hotels and arenas, don’t mean shit, I don’t like people anyway, it’s not the drug that I love, the drug I’ve been addicted to you for over a decade. Nicky, when you were in jail right, pacing and pacing around in a jail cell, I was pacing around in hotel rooms. I wanted that drug.”

Jon Moxley will defend his title on October 9 in Atlantic City, New Jersey against Nick Gage.
