On Wednesday morning, Jon Moxley captured his first championship since parting ways with WWE and leaving his Dean Ambrose character in the rear-view mirror.

“Death Rider” Moxley defeated Juice Robinson to become the new IWGP United States Champion.

Moxley used two Dirty Deeds double-arm DDTs to pin Robinson this morning to win the title in Japan at the New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) Best of the Super Juniors Finals event.
