AEW Full Gear 2024 saw Jon Moxley put his World Heavyweight title on the line against Orange Cassidy. The storyline revolved around Moxley’s new faction, the Death Riders, taking over AEW, with Cassidy coming to the aid of the promotion.
The Death Riders have caused havoc on the AEW roster over the past several months. The faction had already taken out former AEW World Champion Bryan Danielson, which led Orange Cassidy to step up against the faction’s takeover.
Although Cassidy put up a strong fight, he ultimately lost to Moxley. After the match, a chaotic scene unfolded. Hangman Adam Page approached the ring with a chair, confronting the AEW World Champion. However, Christian Cage also appeared and delivered a Killswitch to Moxley.
Christian Cage then attempted to cash in the contract he won at All In London. This allowed him to cash in for a title shot at any time. While Hangman Page seemed to let Cage go ahead, Page was then blindsided by Jay White, stopping Cage’s cash-in attempt.
Jon Moxley’s AEW World Title was saved from Christian Cage’s cash-in attempt. However, the chaos didn’t end there. As the Death Riders fled the arena, Darby Allin crashed his truck into their vehicle and attacked it with his skateboard, bringing the show to a dramatic close. Recent reports reveal the reasoning behind this chaotic ending.
