The One Clue We All Missed Before Jon Moxley's AEW Debut

But if you’d really, really, really been paying attention (like I was) you would have noticed the subtlest, cleverest little clue imaginable. Dean Ambrose, in his last ever interview for WWE, dropped a reference to Double or Nothing.

“Eight years ago, I walked into this casino. Now I’m cashing my chips and walking away from the table. I won the game. What I do with the rest of my life from here on out is my business. I answer to no one. This time the Million Dollar Man didn’t get what he wanted because I can’t be bought.”

Now I’m cashing my chips and walking away from the table. Let’s just take a moment to reflect on the closing image of Double or Nothing...

Now, I doubt the set design was 100% confirmed on April 21st but, I mean, it might have been. The show was called Double or Nothing and it was emanating from Las Vegas in a venue attached to one of the biggest casinos in the world.

Like, if they hadn’t decided they were having a giant stack of chips when he made that interview, they probably would have once they heard him say it. Cashing in my chips, and 4 weeks later he’s throwing Kenny Omega off a stack of them.

There’s also a great little moment earlier on where Seth tells him if you’re going to do something you might as well go “All In” and him and Roman exchange giggly little glances. Like getting a rude joke in without the teacher noticing it.

Anyway, yeah it’s not exactly concrete this but given that Moxley cuts Cole off mid-question because he wants these words to be the last thing in the video, to be the last thing he says in WWE, it’s, yeah… he knew exactly what he was doing there.

Here's the video for yourself, in case you want to revel in the moment. Dean and Seth definitely were.
