Jonathan David Good (born December 7, 1985) is an American professional wrestler, where he performs under the ring name Jon Moxley. He is signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW), where he is a member of the Blackpool Combat Club. He also appears in New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW), where he is the current IWGP World Heavyweight Championship in his first reign, while also being a former two-time IWGP United States Heavyweight Champion.

Regarded as one of the best wrestlers in the world and noted for his deranged and mentally unstable onscreen character, Moxley has also been recognized for his popularity with audiences; he is best known for his time with WWE, where he performed as Dean Ambrose, where he was a member of The Shield. Ambrose won his first championship while in the group, the United States Championship, with his 351-day reign being the longest reigning champion. He would also become a one-time WWE Champion, a three-time Intercontinental Champion, and a two-time Raw Tag Team Champion, while also being a Money in the Bank Ladder Match winner. Upon winning the Raw Tag Team Championship in August 2017, Ambrose became a Triple Crown Champion and a Grand Slam Champion.

He is also known for his work on the independent circuit between 2004 and 2011, and worked for various promotions including Full Impact Pro (FIP), Combat Zone Wrestling (CZW), and Dragon Gate USA (DGUSA), where he was a member of KAMIKAZE USA.

Upon leaving WWE after his contract expired in April 2019, Moxley reverted to his Jon Moxley character and made his surprise debut the following month at Double or Nothing, AEW's inaugural event. Moxley made his NJPW debut in June 2019, winning the IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship in his first match, becoming the first and only person to have held the WWE and IWGP United States Heavyweight Championships, before vacating it four months later, only to regain it in January 2020 and becoming the longest-reigning champion 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 only wrestler to hold both the world championship and a secondary championship.

Moxley is the only person to have held the WWE Championship, the AEW World Championship and the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship, and the first "Global Grand Slam Champion". He has held 14 total championships (including five world championships and three United States championships) between WWE, AEW, and NJPW.

Noted for his onscreen character's unhinged and intense nature, Good is regarded as one of the best wrestlers in the world and has been recognized for his popularity with audiences. He 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.

Early life[]

Jonathan David Good was born in Cincinnati on December 7, 1985. He grew up in Cincinnati's East End, which he said was so deprived that shoplifting was a daily occurrence for everybody he knew because they never had any money. An avid wrestling fan who idolized Bret Hart, he used wrestling as an escape from his rough upbringing by watching videos and reading stories about wrestling's earlier days. He attended Amelia High School in nearby Batavia, but dropped out one year after beginning to train as a wrestler. He supported himself by working minimum-wage jobs in factories, restaurants, and warehouses, but was constantly getting fired because he would skip work if he was booked to wrestle a match that clashed with his job; however, he continued to do so because he knew he "could always find another minimum-wage job". He often used drugs such as cocaine as a teenager, during which time he was also arrested multiple times for shoplifting. He has said that he would have most likely become a forest firefighter if he did not pursue wrestling.

Professional wrestling career[]

Moxley started working for Dragon Gate USA (DGUSA) in late 2009. He made his first televised appearance in March, where he defeated Tommy Dreamer in a hardcore match taped for the Mercury Rising pay-per-view.

On March 27, 2010, SHINGO, YAMATO & Moxley founded the American version of the KAMIKAZE. KAMIKAZE USA would also attack Quackenbush, Jigsaw, Masato Yoshino, and BxB Hulk after their matches, leading to Quackenbush challenging YAMATO to a match between KAMIKAZE USA and the Chikara wrestlers. The match took place at Enter The Dragon 2010, which saw YAMATO, Tozawa, Moxley & Akuma, representing KAMIKAZE USA, being defeated by Yoshino, Quackenbush, Jigsaw & Hallowicked, ending the feud between KAMIKAZE USA and the Chikara wrestlers. KAMIKAZE USA disbanded when SHINGO returned from the injury and joined forces with Masaaki Mochizuki's new stable, Junction Three to battle CIMA's Blood Warriors in Japan.

On February 26 at The New Beginning in USA, Moxley defeated KENTA to retain the IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship. After Moxley defended his title against KENTA he would then proceed to challenge Yuji Nagata for a match for his IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship which Nagata later accepted Moxley's challenge with their match taking place on All Elite Wrestling's weekly series AEW Dynamite.

Wrestling style and persona[]

MoxleyDecember19

Moxley during the 2019 World Tag League.

Moxley was given the Jon Moxley ring name shortly before his first match by a fellow wrestler, who had misheard the name of James Van Der Beek's character Jonathan Moxon in the 1999 film Varsity Blues. He later said, "I'd probably been thinking about names for years and years, but I had no ideas. ... So, right before I'm about to go out the ring announcer said, 'What's the name?' I didn't have one. ... This other wrestler guy was just like, 'It's like the Varsity Blues guy. He's like the guy from Varsity Blues. Jonathan Moxley.' They're like, 'That's cool.' I was too nervous to say yes or no. ... Actually, in the movie, it's Moxon. So the guy screwed up the name a little bit. It wasn't my idea at all, it was just foisted upon me."

Since his time in WWE, Moxley's gimmick has seen him characterized as a mentally unstable and unpredictable wildcard. His gimmick has been compared to Heath Ledger's portrayal of The Joker. Moxley's reversion to his Jon Moxley gimmick and subsequent debut at AEW's Double or Nothing after leaving WWE in 2019 was widely praised, with Phillip Martinez of Newsweek commenting that Moxley had caused "the wrestling world to erupt" after his surprise appearance. Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated opined that Moxley was "the cornerstone of AEW", and fellow AEW wrestler and on-screen rival Kenny Omega referred to Moxley as the "MVP of AEW" in May 2023. Variety also attributed Moxley as one of AEW's biggest ratings attractions for their weekly broadcast. Moxley uses a version of the song "Wild Thing" by X as his entrance theme, as tribute to Japanese wrestler Atsushi Onita, who utilized the same song.

Moxley's match with Tomohiro Ishii during the G1 Climax in July 2019 was met with critical acclaim. Deadspin noted how the tournament offered an excellent platform for him to shine following his departure from WWE; they notably singled out his match against Ishii, calling it "almost certainly Moxley's best singles match ever, under any name, but it felt significant in another sense. It was good, brutal fun to watch, but it also pointed a way forward for Moxley not just as An Attraction, but rather as a brilliant and brilliantly violent wrestler." The match was also awarded five stars by Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. The match was also awarded five stars by esteemed wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, with Meltzer remarking, "I think this was the first time I ever saw a match where at the 17 second mark I already felt it was going to be a four star match... this is a four star match already, right now, and they're building from there."

Other media[]

As Dean Ambrose, Good made his acting debut in the WWE produced action film 12 Rounds 3: Lockdown (2015), in which he starred as detective John Shaw. He also made an uncredited cameo in the WWE film Countdown (2016). Under his real name, he appeared in the sports action film Cagefighter: Worlds Collide (2020) as Randy Stone, a professional wrestler who crosses over to MMA and fights the film's protagonist.

Good, as Dean Ambrose, appears as a playable character in the video games WWE 2K14, WWE 2K15, WWE 2K16, WWE 2K17, WWE 2K18, and WWE 2K19. He also appears in AEW Fight Forever, as Jon Moxley.

In 2011, Smart Mark Video released Stories From the Streets: The Jon Moxley Story, a DVD featuring several of Good's matches in CZW, HWA, and IPW, as well as a two-and-a-half hour shoot interview with Moxley. He has also spoken on several podcasts such as Colt Cabana's Art of Wrestling in December 2014, Chris Jericho's Talk is Jericho in May 2019 (in which he talked about his departure from WWE), and AEW's Unrestricted podcast in February 2020 (for which he was the inaugural guest). Good's autobiography Mox was released on November 2, 2021.

Personal life[]

In 2013, Moxley began dating Canadian backstage interviewer Renee Paquette. The two lived near Las Vegas, where they were married in an impromptu ceremony at their home in the early hours of April 9, 2017. Their daughter, Nora, was born on June 13, 2021. A few months later, they settled in his hometown of Cincinnati to be closer to both his family and Paquette's family in her hometown of Toronto.

Moxley has referred to himself as a loner, which he has often incorporated into his onscreen character. He has also called himself a minimalist, revealing that he drove to WWE's training center in his rundown car with only a bag of clothes and the money in his pocket upon accepting their contract offer. He was roommates with fellow wrestler Big Bill during this time and moved out when he was promoted to the main roster, leaving behind thousands of dollars worth of merchandise sent to him by WWE and telling Cass to "give it to charity or something". He then moved into his new apartment, which he left primarily unfurnished because he reasoned that he would be traveling most of the time.

Good is a notably private person and largely avoids social media, which has been seen as rare in the era of wrestlers using social media to further storylines. He refused to use the Twitter profile WWE created for him in 2012, and said in 2014, "I don't feel the need to open myself up to the opinion of everybody in the world with a phone or computer. I just don't get being connected to everybody on such a superficial level like that." He set up Twitter and Instagram profiles upon leaving WWE in 2019, though he continues to make almost no use of them. He said in 2021, "Everybody just seems to hate [social media] which makes no sense. So then why are we using it? [...] I was out with an injury for a few months [and] I'd still be texting people, talking to people, you could call me on the phone [but] people would be like, 'Oh my God, what happened to you? Like, you've just been off the grid for months!' [...] I wasn't off the grid. I was just at home."

In order to be closer to the recommended doctors during his recovery from an injured arm in 2018, Good lived for a period of time in Birmingham, Alabama, where he contracted MRSA in his arm. He later claimed that the infection nearly killed him. In November 2021, at Good's request, Tony Khan announced that Good had checked himself into rehab to address his alcoholism. He returned to wrestling three months later.

Good began learning mixed martial arts in 2019 for his role in the film Cagefighter: Worlds Collide (2020). After he finished filming, he continued training in MMA at Xtreme Couture, which included training with Randy Couture himself. He competed at the NAGA Cincinnati Grappling Championships on July 15, 2023, winning the men's no-gi beginner/super-heavyweight/30+ age division by beating Chris Sailor, the only other competitor in that bracket. At the same event, he competed in the men's no-gi beginner/absolute weight division, beating Sailor again in the first round before losing by submission in the second round. He returned to competition at Twisted Tournament: Cincinnati on August 19, entering two divisions again but losing all of his matches.
