While speaking with Conrad Thompson ahead of AEW WrestleDream in St. Louis—a city forever linked to Harley Race’s legacy—Khan was asked to name AEW’s version of the late legend. Without skipping a beat, he pointed to the former AEW World Champion and Death Rider enforcer.
>“Yeah, it is Jon Moxley,” Khan responded. “He’s won the most championships. He’s traveled the world. He’s a hardened veteran. He’s from the Midwest. And he’s a straight shooter and he’s a great person who’s respected by his peers, who takes no gruff, and is so respected as a pro wrestling veteran.”>“Many times in Jon Moxley’s matches, I’ve observed, it was like watching a great Harley Race match—or even some of Harley Race’s great matches in Japan remind me of some of the great Jon Moxley matches.”>“There’s a lot of great influences and great wrestlers that contribute to what Jon Moxley is—but he’s also an incredible, very unique personality in the world of pro wrestling. I think it’s really cool that he draws comparisons to such a great champion like Harley Race.”>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvXK9uXZ2_E
