Wrestling veteran Jim Cornette believes Shane McMahon is not involved in Jon Moxley's AEW storyline. Jon Moxley is the current AEW World Champion in his fourth reign.

Rumors of Shane McMahon's possible move to AEW began a couple of months ago after he was spotted with CEO Tony Khan. After Jon Moxley's return to All Elite Wrestling recently, many believed that Shane O'Mac could be the higher power making Moxley and the rest of the Blackpool Combat Club destroy the locker room.

In a recent edition of his The Experience podcast, Jim Cornette questioned whether Shane McMahon would be revealed in All Elite Wrestling. The veteran then claimed that there is no higher power over Jon Moxley, as he is not going to let anybody else handle his business.

"What landmark event does it take now to get to Shane [McMahon] showing himself. If this wasn't the place to reveal him if he had anything to do with it... I don't think that there's a higher power. I don't think that [Jon] Moxley is gonna be subservient to anybody in his own fantasy angle here. I think it's some type of mindset that he's found and he's gonna be the f*cking boss of this thing. I don't think he's gonna let anyone else be the one to f*ck the dog and him just hold its head." [18:50-20:00]

Jon Moxley recently won the AEW World Championship

At AEW WrestleDream, Jon Moxley won his fourth World Title after defeating his former best friend, Bryan Danielson, and ending his full-time career. After the match, Moxley further ambushed The American Dragon and made Wheeler Yuta suffocate him with a plastic bag.

On the recent edition of Dynamite, Jon Moxley put the locker room on notice and launched a brutal attack on the talent alongside his Blackpool Combat Club stablemates.

We will have to wait and see who steps up to challenge The Death Rider for his World Title in the coming weeks.
