AEW star Eddie Kingston recently revealed that one of the top stars on the All Elite roster, Jon Moxley, once tried to get him into WWE.

Moxley of course is a former WWE Champion, and during a conversation with talkSPORT, Kingston revealed that the former Dean Ambrose tried to get the company to sign him.

‘Jon has been one of the biggest advocates for me in my whole career since we met,’ Kingston began. ‘A lot of people don’t know that he was trying to get me into WWE years ago. Trying his best to do what he could.

“’˜Hey, I told this guy to check you out.'” And this is me and Jon not talking for years and out of nowhere he’ll text me ’˜Hey, I told so and so to watch your match from blah, blah, blah,’ and I’ll be like, ’˜Who is this?’” Kingston added.

“And he’ll be like, ’˜Jon’ and I’ll be like, ’˜Oh hey, what’s up Mox?’ That’s the kind of friends we are. When we ran into each other when I got to AEW, he even said and I agreed, ’˜Eddie, it feels like I saw you two weeks ago,’” the AEW star concluded.
