Thankfully, the former AEW World Champion was able to finish the match despite seemingly getting concussed. However, there is a picture circulating on the internet in which Mox's wife, Renee Paquette, Tony Khan, Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta, look extremely concerned about Mox.

Amid the speculation of a concussion, there is a report on Moxley's situation and the potential injury suffered by him. Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter shared an update regarding the injury scare on the "X" social media platform. Dave also elaborated on the seriousness of the concussion:

"Moxley was diagnosed with a minor concussion."

While a minor concussion may seem like a piece of positive news for fans, Mox will still need some time to recover after this incident. We wish Jon Moxley a speedy recovery as only time will tell when the former champion will be able to get back in the ring.
