AEW News Roundup: Tony Khan on intense competition with Vince McMahon's company, former world champion criticizes WWE promos, and more (June 19, 2021)

#1 AEW star Jon Moxley criticizes WWE for overdoing promos

Jon Moxley and Triple H

On the Oral Sessions podcast, AEW's Jon Moxley recently discussed numerous topics, most notably how the creative process in WWE overemphasizes scripted promos.

The former WWE Superstar stated that their creative team often adds a whole lot of unnecessary points to promos, which removes the natural element from the same:

"As far as what to put in and what not, it’s kinda like a wrestling match or like a promo. That’s why WWE promos f**king suck because they jam 5,000 f**king words in there that aren’t necessary. Say what you want to say, mean what you want to say, get your point across. ‘I’m gonna beat your a** on Saturday night because I don’t like you.’ Boom, done," said Jon Moxley (H/T - Inside The Ropes)

Ever since Jon Moxley left Vince McMahon's promotion to join AEW, he's definitely been a top star.

Moxley held the AEW World Championship for 277 days, which remains the longest reign for the title thus far.
