>>12071268Jon Moxley was standing in front of more than 10,000 wrestling fans inside New York's Arthur Ashe Stadium, but he had absolutely no idea where he was.
During Moxley's AEW International Championship defense against Rey Fenix at AEW Dynamite Grand Slam on Sept. 20, Moxley suffered a mild concussion at the start of their match.
Moxley exclusively told The Messenger the concussion happened "30 seconds in," which ultimately sent him to "f---in' outer space for like 10 minutes."
"I just kept getting progressively more lost and couldn't figure out where the f--- I was," he explained. "Then I had this moment of clarity, 'Oh, I’m f---ed up. I gotta get the f--- out of here.'"
So, an in-ring audible was called to end the match early and give the title to Fenix.
Moxley returned to action on AEW Collision last week, but even being out of action a month was difficult for him.
"I’m a very physical person," he said. "I like wrestling for the sake of wrestling. I like to do sh-- with my body. So, sitting still and being injured is always very challenging."
