Jon Moxley might be the AEW World Champion, but heading into Revolution, hes looking more alone than ever. His faction, The Death Riders, has been unstoppable for months, but thanks to Cope, that dominance is crumbling fast.
It all started when Cope went after Claudio Castagnoli and PAC, delivering brutal con-chair-tos that took them out of action. Then, Willow Nightingale stepped in and did the same to Marina Shafir, wiping her off the board. That left only Wheeler Yutauntil tonight.
