AEW star Claudio Castagnoli recently spoke with Adrian Hernandez on a number of topics including how fellow AEW star and Blackpool Combat Club member Jon Moxley is like John Wayne and how that is what makes Moxley special.

Castagnoli said, โ€œHey, Iโ€™m nobodyโ€™s dad, right, thatโ€™s Christianโ€™s role in AEW. Hereโ€™s the beauty about Jon Moxley. Mox is gonna do what Mox is gonna do, and thatโ€™s him, and thatโ€™s awesome. Thatโ€™s what makes him so special. He is so, heโ€™s like John Wayne. Heโ€™s like James Dean. Heโ€™s just that cool guy. Heโ€™s just cool. No matter what he does, he can just come in and wear whatever and youโ€™re just like, โ€˜Yeah, that guyโ€™s cool.โ€™ I donโ€™t know, thatโ€™s just my impression of him. So hey, if he wants to use a fork, Iโ€™m like, โ€˜Alright, Iโ€™m on your team.โ€
