Jon Moxley may have dropped a hint about a massive name's potential AEW signing on the latest episode of Dynamite. Kazuchika Okada is officially out of his contract with NJPW as of January 31, 2024, and he may be heading towards the Tony Khan-led company.

On the January 31 edition of Dynamite, The Purveyor of Violence seemingly hinted at Okada's arrival in AEW. He made the 'money fingers' gesture on the show, raising speculation about the 36-year-old possibly signing with All Elite Wrestling. For those unaware, The Rainmaker's on-screen character has been associated with money for a long time.

Kazuchika Okada had fake dollar bills printed with his face on them as part of his wrestling gimmick. Moreover, his entrance theme in NJPW started with a coin drop sound. This has led many to believe that Jon Moxley hinted at the veteran's potential arrival in AEW on the Wednesday night program.
