Jon Moxley won the IWGP United States Championship today in his NJPW debut, defeating Juice Robinson at NJPW’s Best of the Super Juniors show in Tokyo, Japan.
After lots of brawling and a few table spots, Moxley won with a Dirty Deeds, followed by his apparent new finisher, a modified version of Dirty Deeds where the opponent is lifted higher off the ground. Commentary called the move the “Death Rider.”
Check out highlights of the match below.
