10 Most Successful WWE To AEW Transitions

Jon Moxley and Dean Ambrose are not the same man.

One was seen as little more than a kooky, slapstick nutjob that could be thrown into whatever bizarre scenario WWE dreamed up next. Whereas the other has gone about crafting one of the most believable babyface badasses ever to grace a squared circle. And he's done it all in a deliciously violent way, with a ton of unfiltered heart, and without so much as a whiff of inauthentic "lunacy."

Double or Nothing 2019 marked the rebirth of not only Jon Moxley the character, but Jon Moxley the human being who bloody loves this thing called wrasslin'. And despite the Elite company being one that was forged before his arrival, you will find very few who would argue against The Purveyor of Violence being the undisputed heart and soul of AEW.

Rising to the challenge whenever Tony Khan needs someone to carry his sometimes volatile promotion on their back, the multiple-time AEW World Champion justifiably sits as one of the greatest and most diverse currently doing it today; a far cry from the bloke who spent his latter WWE days wearing a gas mask and rallying against germs.
