Don't think the plan was ever to have Cage/Mox be a PPV feed. With AEW only running 4 PPVs/year, there's going to inevitably be some title matches they give away on TV, and I'm fine with that. I think the main issue is they hotshotted Cage into the main event without really building him up. The guy wasn't really a household name coming in, so that didn't make much sense to me.
I'm really not sure what's next for Moxley now. He's cleaned out most of the roster. Archer probably makes the most sense and they had a pretty good match in NJPW, so I definitely wouldn't be opposed to it.
Nice to see the seeds being planted for The Elite turning heel, especially Kenny.
