Jon Moxley has turned heel!

After seemingly teasing a possible switch during his brutal Texas Deathmatch on Sunday, Moxley embraced his post-defeat rage and snapped on The Dark Order following victory over the group on last night's Dynamite.

And he didn't turn alone either. Blackpool Combat Club members Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta have been rotten b*stards for weeks now, but Moxley finally got in on the action after he tapped out Alex Reynolds at the climax of The BCC's battle with Order members Reynolds and John Silver.

Continuing the abuse after the bell and triple teaming their fallen foes individually when Evil Uno tried to make the save, the assault drew out Moxley's Revolution opponent Hangman Page, despite the 'Anxious Millennial Cowboy' explicitly stating earlier in the show that he was "done" with the former three-time AEW World Heavyweight Champion.

After a brief brawl, the outnumbered Moxley, Yuta and Castagnoli left via the crowd. Bryan Danielson didn't feature in the segment or live on the show at all, following a post-Revolution promo revealing that he was going "home" for the foreseeable after his own damaging defeat.

Expect follow-up on this over the next few days - Moxley remains one of the biggest stars in AEW and has featured prominently as its top babyface since the company's 2019 launch.
