It’s a brand-new year, filled with new opportunities. For Jon Moxley, 2022 will bring a return to wrestling action.

This weekend, Homicide won the Do or Die Rumble at GCW Die 4. This earns the TNA legend a chance to challenge Jon Moxley for his GCW World title.

After, it was confirmed that Homicide would get a shot against Moxley for the championship at Hammerstein Ballroom on Sunday, January 23^rd. Jon scored the championship when he beat Nick Gage last year.

When will Jon Moxley return to AEW? This has yet to be announced, but here’s hoping soon.

More On Jon Moxley In-Ring Return

Moxley had an incredible eight-year run with the WWE. He would enter NXT in 2011.

Along with Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins, he exploded onto the main roster scene in 2012. The Shield continues to be one of the most dominant WWE factions in recent memory.

Moxley was WWE Champion, Intercontinental Champion (three times), U.S. Champion, and Tag Team Champion (twice).

As such, he was also a Triple Crown Champion and Grand Slam Champ (under current format). Plus, Jon was Mr. Money in the Bank (MITB) for 2016.

Moxley became All Elite in 2019, during AEW’s Double or Nothing event. He’s already had a nice run as AEW World Champion.

Notable one of the better things that came out of his stint with the WWE was his relationship with now-wife, Renee Paquette. The two married in April 2017 and welcomed their daughter Norah in the summer of last year.

Looks like Jon Moxley had two very good reasons to enter rehab last year. WNZ wishes him a successful return to in-ring action.

Over to the land of NXT, one of their largest superstars is feeling the heat. More information on this story, below.

Since this happened, Jones has hit the private button on all his social media platforms. TransGraps, the Twitter handle that covers what goes on in the trans wrestling community caught wind of Jones’s social media post.

As such, they called him out for what he did. See one tweet below (there were many others, but the language is too unfriendly to post).
