Jon Moxley says WWE legend Ric Flair blamed him for ‘getting arrested at airport after swigging double Bloody Marys’

Posted: Feb 24th 2021 By: Joe Brophy

AEW star Jon Moxley has claimed that Ric Flair blamed him for a boozy night out which ended with the all-tme legend getting arrested at the airport.

The 35-year-old worked alongside the Nature Boy, 71, during the seven years he spent in WWE when he was known as Dean Ambrose.

And Mox - real name Jonathan Good - lifted the lid on swigging cocktails with the Stylin', profilin', limousine riding, jet flying, kiss-stealing Flair.

He told Metro: “Getting drunk with Ric Flair, he gets arrested at the airport and he’s walking round telling people I got him arrested at the airport.

“I’m like, ‘OK Ric! I wasn’t twisting your arm to order double Bloody Marys at 2:30 in the morning.’ I’m like, ‘I’m hanging out with Ric Flair, this is crazy, what kind of life am I living?!’

“I’ve been very blessed to transport myself into the universe that I watched and wondered over as kid.

“Sometimes I have to be like, ‘What the hell is going on? How did this become my life?’ But it’s pretty cool.”

Moxley has still been mixing with wrestling legends since showing up in AEW and admitted he often has to pinch himself.

He added: “I walk into the hallway and see somebody I grew up watching on TV.

“It’s just a person you see every day – Jim Ross calls my matches every week, and sometimes I’m like, ‘That’s Jim f***ing Ross!’ Or I have a conversation with him, or see Sting walking around.

“I’ve had a lot of blessings that have come from this business and what it’s provided me.

“But really, the thing that keeps driving me – that feeling of the end of the night when you’re bleeding and sweating, coughing up bile, your teeth are loose, but you feel like a million dollars because you really gave everything you had and left it all in the ring.

“You put yourself in danger and survived – to come out the other side of that, that’s the addictive part.”
