Synopsis

A vivid trip through the mind of the top professional wrestler in the business—a nobody from nowhere who achieved his ambitions and walked away with the gold and the girl of his dreams.

Ride alongside Jon Moxley as he retraces some of the highways traveled on his remarkable journey. Revel in the never-before-told stories about his early life in Cincinnati, Ohio; the gritty independent wrestling scene where he cut his teeth; the complicated corporate landscape of the WWE where he bucked against authority; and the rebellious upstart AEW, where he won the championship in 2020 and was finally free to achieve the vision of the wrestler he'd always wanted to be.

With plenty of pitstops and revelatory insights, including grisly ultraviolent encounters, crazy characters who became lifelong friends, and his unforgettable matches in Japan, MOX is the riveting account of the life of a brawler. It is a tale written in blood and soaked in debauchery, with a good dose of wisdom accumulated along the way.

More than a backstage pass into the arena, MOX is a ticket into the ring. Once inside, you’ll never look at pro wrestling the same again.

I love Pro Wrestling. I've had people ask me "How can someone who loves Hamlet and Moby-Dick appreciate wrestling?" To which I say "Eat a big back of fetid cat testicles." But if I'm being polite I'll say "have you ever read Hamlet and Moby-Dick?" They're rabid, frothing, lunacy. They're examples of......more

You can hear his voice in every word. Either a great argument against ghostwriting, or a great example of ghostwriting. It's wrestling. You'll never really know.......more

The two things you need to know about me for this review: 1) I don't read very much nonfiction, especially not biographies. I'm mainly a fiction reader, with a lean towards the speculative. 2) I fucking love pro wrestling. In theory, this book is the hottest of hot messes. There's nothing even approach......more

Goodreads review by Phil on October 23, 2021

Hey! I received this book weeks before its release date! First time's that ever happened to me from pre-ordering something! Jon Moxley is one of my favorite wrestlers. I first saw him at a DGUSA show,the one where he almost cut his nipple off. He was the only Shield guy I was familiar with when they......more

Goodreads review by Khurram on June 30, 2022

A good book. For me Mox was a sort of forgotten member of the Shield. It was not until I saw his incarnation in AEW that I started to get more into his characters. I admit I take a break from wrestling so I did miss some of his stuff I WWE. The great think about thus book is when Mox talk about the m......more
