Jon Moxley suffered a mild concussion on the September 20th episode of AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam. After the incident, many fans and wrestling personalities discussed the incident. A lot of people put the blame on the referee Rick Nox.
Former WWE and ECW wrestler, Stevie Richards uploaded a video on YouTube soon after Jon Moxley’s concussion, explaining the whole situation. However, the video was subsequently removed from the platform.
Stevie Richards recently appeared on the “Cafe de Rene with Rene Dupree”, where he was asked about AEW agents calling him after the video of Jon Moxley’s concussion. During the phone conversation, Richards was told AEW wrestlers don’t listen to veterans’ advice.
“I’m not going to say who it is, but it was more than one and there’s not a ton of them, so you can guess. What they said to me was, it was universally like, the conversation was two men, ‘Hey, call me, I want to talk and clear the air about this.’ I make the call, we talk, it was literally the first minute or two, pleasantries, and then, I know we have to talk this out and see. Tell me where I was wrong and where I was right. ‘You were wrong in saying the blame is on the agents or producers. We try to tell these kids what to do and how to be safe, they don’t listen, they can’t be coached,’ and then they went on for ten to 20 minutes telling me how I had no idea how right I was with the video.”
