Eddie Kingston & Jon Moxley have formed quite the tag team in All Elite Wrestling. During Wednesday’s episode of AEW Dynamite, the duo continued its growth by taking down The Acclaimed in a competitive match.
Fair to say @JonMoxley was NOT a fan of @PlatinumMax's entrance rap.

Before the match, The Acclaimed once again came out and displayed their skills on the mic, as Max Caster rapped about Moxley and Kingston’s looks and even their significant others. As soon as they got in the ring, though, Moxley quickly assaulted Caster, throwing him out of the ring and continuing his assault on the outside as the match officially began.

As the bout continued, Moxley and Kingston showed why they have the potential to be one of the best tag team duos in the business, as they kept the pressure on The Acclaimed and never let up. Late in the contest, The Acclaimed attempted to use some illegal objects to come away with a win. Max Caster tried to use his boombox as a weapon, but Moxley saw it coming. The former AEW World Champion then hit Caster with a huge punch before he and Kingston teamed up for a wheelbarrow ParadigmShift for the impressive win.
