Eddie Kingston is King.
Eddie Kingston won the AEW Continental Classic, defeating Jon Moxley in the finals at AEW Worlds End.
As a result of his victory, Kingston is now the ROH Champion, NJPW Strong Champion, and AEW Continental Champion. He will be recognized as the Triple Crown Champion.
The hard-hitting affair saw Moxley and Kingston get into a striking exchange with Moxley landing a right and then Kingston firing back with the spinning backfist. Moxley fell over, and Kingston fell on him for the pinfall win.
The only person who may be able to handle these blows from Eddie Kingston is Jon Moxley.
