Since he left WWE in 2019, Jon Moxley has reemerged as one of the definitive names in AEW. Rising to main event status in the company, it was on his shoulders that All Elite Wrestling took the wrestling world by storm.
Through his various feuds, he became one of the mainstay attractions that drew wrestling fans to AEW, headlined by a nearly 300 day-long world title reign.
Unfortunately, Moxley has been sidelined for personal reasons since November. However, with the recent news he will wrestle in GCW on January 23, many believe his return to Tony Khan's promotion may be very soon.

Here are five potential feuds Moxley could have when he returns to AEW.
#5. Jon Moxley vs. Miro
Since his loss to Bryan Danielson at Full Gear 2021, it's fair to say Miro has been a bit directionless these past few months.
There's no doubt he has greatly improved since his arrival in AEW, finding his place as the near-unstoppable Redeemer, on a holy quest to prove his superiority both inside and out of the ring.
Despite his promo and character work being impeccable recently, Miro has lacked any noteworthy opponents to continue his dominant rise in All Elite Wrestling.
A feud with Moxley could be just the push both wrestlers need moving forward, with Miro finally getting a worthy challenge to face off against after both wrestlers' hiatus from TV.
#4. Jon Moxley vs. Malakai Black
Jon Moxley has faced quite a few unique opponents in AEW. However, he has certainly never met a wrestler like Malakai Black.
Black's debut on Dynamite was huge news. Though his character and his work in the ring and on the mic is undeniably good, like Miro, he has lacked any remarkable feuds in recent months to build his momentum off of.
With Malakai Black continuing to develop his House of Black stable in the company, it would be interesting to see his new faction pitted against Moxley, perhaps assisted by the latter's tag partner, Eddie Kingston.
No matter who comes out on top, a feud between the two would no doubt be physical and psychological, with the potential to deliver a match fans have been clamoring for since Black arrived in the company in July 2021.
#3. Jon Moxley vs. Bryan Danielson
A match that was originally set for Full Gear 2021 that unfortunately never occurred, Moxley and Bryan Danielson's rivalry is one that dates back to WWE. However, as they were both in the midcard at the time, fans never got to to see a great main event-caliber match.
Should Moxley return soon, it's only natural his first opponent would be the man he came so close to wrestling at Full Gear. Both wrestlers have already proved themselves capable of dishing out and enduring incredible amounts of punishment.
A match between the two would be the physical showdown fans have been waiting to watch for nearly a decade.
#2. Jon Moxley vs. Adam Page
Had Jon Moxley competed against Bryan Danielson at Full Gear and won, his next opponent would've been AEW World Heavyweight Champion, Hangman Adam Page.
Just prior to his hiatus, Moxley had begun showing signs of a heel turn. He quickly and brutally dispatched opponents, showing a more no-nonsense side to his personality.
Having finally won the world championship, Page has been trying to prove to himself and fans that he has what it takes to be the top talent in All Elite Wrestling.
He has shown himself to be a brawler as well as a more agile wrestler, which could pair nicely with Moxley's smashmouth wrestling style. If Page is to have a lengthy title reign ahead of him, it's only natural that he crosses paths with Moxley at some point.
#1. Jon Moxley vs. Adam Cole
One of Jon Moxley's best feuds in AEW has been with The Elite. The rivalry resulted in numerous matchups against Kenny Omega, and a fantastic tag team match with Eddie Kingston against The Young Bucks.
With Omega currently out of action, Adam Cole has stepped in as the unofficial leader of The Elite. Should Moxley return as a face, a feud against Cole would be a dream match in the making.
Moxley has yet to face The Panama City Playboy in any ring, nor has he battled Adam Cole's stablemates, Bobby Fish or Kyle O'Reilly. With Cole continuing his rise to main event status, a feud against Moxley could help elevate him to the top of AEW.
