About Jon Moxley

Jonathan David Good (born December 7, 1985), better known by his ring name Jon Moxley, is an American professional wrestler. As of May 2019, he is signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW), where he is the current AEW Continental Champion in his first reign, and is the leader of the Death Riders stable. He has also made appearances for New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW). Good won the Pro Wrestling Illustrated award for Most Popular Wrestler of the Year in 2014, 2015, and 2022, and was named Wrestler of the Year by Sports Illustrated in 2019. He was also ranked first on the 2020 edition of Pro Wrestling Illustrated's list of the top 500 wrestlers in the world. Good made his professional wrestling debut in 2004, and competed as Jon Moxley in several independent promotions such as Heartland Wrestling Association (HWA), Westside Xtreme Wrestling (wXw), Full Impact Pro (FIP), Combat Zone Wrestling (CZW), and Dragon Gate USA (DGUSA). Upon signing with WWE in 2011, he was renamed Dean Ambrose and began competing in the company's developmental territories of Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) and NXT, before joining the main roster in November 2012 as a member of The Shield alongside Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins. Ambrose won the WWE United States Championship, his first championship in WWE, in May 2013; his 351-day reign became the longest United States Championship reign since the title came under WWE's ownership (breaking the record previously held by Montel Vontavious Porter). After widespread success, The Shield split in June 2014. Ambrose went on to win the WWE Championship once, the WWE Intercontinental Championship three times, and the WWE Raw Tag Team Championship twice (both times with Rollins), which made him WWE's 27th Triple Crown Champion and 16th Grand Slam Champion. He also won the Money in the Bank ladder match in 2016. Upon leaving WWE after his contract expired in April 2019, Good reverted to his Jon Moxley character and made his surprise debut the following month at Double or Nothing, AEW's inaugural event. He started wrestling for NJPW in June 2019 and won the IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship in his first NJPW match, becoming the only person to have held the United States Championships in both WWE and NJPW. He would briefly vacate the championship but quickly won it back a second time, subsequently setting a record for the longest reign in the championship's history. He also won the AEW World Championship in February of that year, making him the first person to hold championships in AEW and NJPW simultaneously. He won the AEW World Championship twice more in 2022, setting records for the most world championship wins and longest cumulative reigns in AEW history. He would also win the AEW International Championship in September 2023, making him the company's first wrestler to hold both the world championship and a secondary championship. Afterwards, Good would win the IWGP Heavyweight Championship at Windy City Riot, becoming the first and thus far only wrestler to hold world titles in WWE, AEW and NJPW. He also won the 2025 Continental Classic, which led him to winning the AEW Continental Championship. He has headlined 18 AEW pay-per-view events, the most in the company's history. In total, Good has held 17 total championships (including six world championships) between WWE, AEW, and NJPW. At WrestleDream in October 2024, he won the AEW World Championship for a record-setting fourth time. In December 2025, he won the 2025 Continental Classic and the AEW Continental Championship. Good has sporadically ventured into acting, most notably starring in the films 12 Rounds 3: Lockdown (2015) and Cagefighter: Worlds Collide (2020). He has been signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW) since May 2019, where he performs under the ring name Jon Moxley, is the leader of the Death Riders, and is the current AEW Continental Champion in his first reign. He previously made appearances for New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), where he is a former one-time IWGP Heavyweight Champion, IWGP Intercontinental Champion and two-time IWGP United States Heavyweight Cha.
