It sure seemed to me Moxley was genuine in his expressive excitement over this surprise happening tomorrow night. But maybe I’m getting fooled. Would love to know what you all think this could be about. Sorry, dude, I don't have time to check it out right now. But me personally I try not to pay too much attention to stuff like that and see what what happens come show time. I do know that with a lot of released WWE talent now being free it could be anybody from there. Who that would be unlike you I don't know (see what I did there?) Edited July 21, 2020 by NikoBaltimore

Ok everyone...listen to the last 4 minutes of the tape. I just listened to it again and I got some of it wrong. Moxley is talking about a huge surprise and it will excite the hardcore fans who follow the business worldwide but then was about to express why causal fans will get excited but got interrupted by the host of the show. I don’t think this your typical BS...this is something Moxley is pumped for in a big way. Maybe something to do with New Japan Wrestler or the organization itself? Please give it a listen (very last 4 minutes) and put down what you think. Thanks. Edited July 21, 2020 by Flair’s Shadow 1

Plus based on how crappy Tony Kahn’s “big surprises or announcements that were going to change the wrestling industry forever” were two weeks ago this should be taken with a major grain of salt. As most New Japan fans know they have a big event happening on Saturday so there’s a less than .0001% chance any of their guys worth hyping up (Okada, Naito, Tanahashi, Ibushi, or Jay White) show up on Dynamite tomorrow. Also I don’t see Miro (or whatever name they’d offer the former Rusev) bringing in any hardcore fans that weren’t already following the product. So that leaves the totally unattainable names (Punk, Rock, Austin, etc.) and unless they’re bullshitting everyone I don’t see CM Punk showing up.
Flair’s Shadow Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 After listening to the tape again it sounds like Moxley was very pleased with a match that happens tomorrow night involving a wrestler whom hardcore fans would know...so I think this excitement is for Cody vs WARHORSE. Moxley wanted to discuss why casual fans would also get excited and hooked but the host interrupted Moxley’s attempt to further promote tomorrow nights Dynamite show. 1

I now think Moxley’s excitement is about the Cody/WARHORSE match.
Curt McGirt Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 It would be nice if he was excited for a good women's match, or a card with less than four tags. 2
Web Conn Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 (edited) Who is Warhorse? I’ve been hearing about him a lot lately but I’ve never seen a match of his. Edited July 21, 2020 by Web Conn

I just posted a WARHORSE match in the 2020 matches thread. There's also a couple of old ones vs Gary Jay (from when he wasn't wearing the facepaint, and was 'Warhorse' Jake Parnell rather than WARHORSE) in both the Clubbering and Blood Sucking threads. Also, there's this: 1

For Great Justice Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 Starks seemingly joined Cage and Taz’s crew on Dark, which I am totally down with. Great pairing. 4
Death From Above Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 The Starks squash was good too. Cool finish. 1
Casey Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 (edited) The surprise is probably another former NWA talent. Edited July 22, 2020 by Casey
Octopus Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 I listened to the interview and you could tell Mox was excited. Maybe it had to do with the car he stole from Jericho. Car could have been dinged up. Keyed even. Cars can get keyed. Keyed again? For a second time? Re-keyed. Who keyed? He? Or was it she? Re-keyed, She. Re-key she. Rikishi! Rikishi vs Mox for the title. 2

Moxley said he wasn’t going to give the surprise away but it will be a huge surprise. The excitement from Moxley seemed very genuine. 2 3
S.K.o.S. Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 Put me down for Cody vs. Eddie Kingston. I just have a tough time picturing Mox getting legitimately excited over Warhorse. 6
For Great Justice Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 My guess is a name late 90’s / early 00’s guy that surprisingly hangs with Cody for a while in a fun 10 minute kind of thing. Glacier or Disco or someting.
Casey Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 Yeah I don’t see Moxley getting excited for Glacier, sorry. If it’s Disco Inferno I’ll eat a fucking hat. He has about a good of a chance as showing up in AEW as Jim Cornette does, I’d say.
Web Conn Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 Alex Wright has a better chance of showing up and he lives in Germany.
Jiji Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 Now I'm going to be disappointed if it's not Kingston. I will be extra sad if it's that dork Warhorse. 3
Death From Above Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 After a week down a bloody lucha rabbit hole I want it to be old man LA Park if we're gonna ask for old WCW people, him and Cody just beating each other's ass with weight belts. Not gonna happen sadly. 2

Yeah I don’t get the appeal of him or someone like Danhausen. The very definition of indie, and not necessarily in a good way. 1
The Green Meanie Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 So does Diamante count as a local talent? She's not signed, but she's technically still one half of the WOW Tag Team Champions so I'm not sure if she counts. If so, she becomes the third local talent to win a match, joining Abadon and Serpentico. I thought Cage had let Tazz go, so him having Starks join his stable was surprising. What do those two have in common exactly? I'm not seeing it.
Casey Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 Diamanté will join the Inner Circle at some point, I can almost guarantee that. 2
