Jon Moxley to face Davey Richards at Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport 9
Jon Moxley’s match at GCW Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport 9 has been revealed.
Barnett announced on social media that Moxley will face Davey Richards on the show.
It's been 13 years since these two clashed one-on-one in the ring.
That last meeting was a time limit draw.
A wrestler can change a lot in 13 years…
But one that hasn't changed for these two athletes – they are out for BLOOD!
