Jon Moxley debuted in AEW in 2019 and has been a top star of the company. He also wrestles for NJPW occasionally in his signature brutal style. In a recent NJPW match, ‘The Purveyor of Violence’ had a bunch of chopsticks stabbed into his head.

 The NJPW match was too violent to watch for many wrestling critics and fans. Jim Cornette gave his honest and brutal opinion on it in an episode of his podcast, Jim Cornette Experience.

The 61-year-old said, “So maybe the guy just bopped all in at the same time which must have smarted because this f**king moron is sitting there and letting them do that. Because he is a f**king idiot. And I’m telling you at this point somebody needs to have him checked in for an involuntary mental evaluation because something is going on.”

Furthermore, he added, “Oh yeah, he’s got a big hole. They don’t even need to do a CAT scan, they just need a f**king magnifying glass to peep right down. Hold a mag light up to the hole, you’ll see everything he’s got. It won’t take long.”

It was the NJPW Strong Independence show that proved to be more than the audience could handle. Moxley partnered up with Homicide against Jun Kasai and El Desperado in an Exciting Encounter Doomsday No DQ match. The spot was painful to watch after Kasai stabbed a bunch of chopsticks into Moxley’s head.
