Matt Cardona: Jon Moxley Is Ducking Me, GCW Needs To Book The Rematch

Matt Cardona says Jon Moxley is ducking him.

For the past number of years, Matt Cardona has consistently been one of the biggest names in Game Changer Wrestling. Cardona made history during his first match for the promotion in 2021, as he defeated Nick Gage in a deathmatch to win the GCW World Championship.

Cardona would go on to lose the championship to Jon Moxley in quick fashion less than two months later. Since then, the 'Indie God' has continued to appear in the company, feuding with the likes of Effy, Joey Janela, and Rhino.

In a new interview with the Battleground Podcast, Cardona was asked if he felt disappointed that he never got to have a full match with Moxley in GCW.

“He’s ducking me. Not only have I not had a [full] match with Moxley in GCW, I have [not received] a rematch for my GCW Championship after losing to Moxley. That was the Chicago Screw Job, I was screwed. I had a grueling one-on-one encounter with Frank The Clown, it took everything I had to beat Frank, one of the toughest competitors in the game. Just as I’m celebrating, thinking I had won, out comes Moxley, who screws me. I wasn’t ready. Even though I’m always ready, I wasn’t ready at that moment and I haven’t gotten a rematch against Mox or anyone for that title. I think GCW’s gotta book it, or AEW.”

Cardona last competed for GCW at the Homecoming show on August 19, 2023, where he teamed with Steph De Lander in a match against Nick Gage and Maki Itoh.

Elsewhere in a separate interview, Cardona stated that he's all booked up for the remainder of 2023. Fans can learn more here.
