Jon Moxley claimed the AEW Continental Championship by winning the AEW Continental Classic tournament at World’s End 2025. As 2026 approaches, a new chapter as a babyface could begin for Moxley, with a fresh incarnation of his character emerging. Six AEW stars are set to join Moxley’s new babyface faction.
Among them are Eddie Kingston and Ortiz, who have made a strong impact since Kingston’s return. Known as “The Mad King,” Kingston recently reunited with Ortiz and may rekindle ties with former AEW ally turned rival Jon Moxley. If Moxley parts ways with his current Death Rider faction and forms a new babyface group, bringing Kingston and Ortiz on board would be a smart move. Together, they could be instrumental in overthrowing the Death Rider faction’s reign of dominance.
Fan Take: This development is exciting for AEW fans as it signals a significant shift in Jon Moxley’s storyline, potentially revitalizing his character and creating fresh rivalries. The alliance with strong wrestlers like Eddie Kingston and Ortiz adds depth and promise to the faction, which could lead to some thrilling and dynamic matches in the coming year.
