Jon Moxley Explains Why He Changed The Original Version Of Dirty Deeds

Dirty Deeds is Jon Moxley's finishing maneuver. Since leaving WWE, his finisher has gone through some changes.

During a recent interview with Fightful, Moxley opened up about the changes made to his finisher.

Here's what he had to say:

Jon Moxley on changing his finisher: “To me it’s a fucking DDT. Depending on who wants to copyright what in what company or whatever, it can’t ever be Dirty Deeds anymore, obviously.”

Moxley on how his finishing move has changed: “It happened naturally. I started doing that super DDT, the Death Rider or whatever you want to call it…To me the big one is the special one. Juice Robinson invented that in a match with him. It’s all natural ‘cause my mind is so like free flowing and there’s no kind of limits on me right now. So, if I can do it off the top rope, I’m likely to just do it off the top rope or through two tables in the Tokyo Dome or whatever or through a glass table. All these things just come naturally, you know? I can do different stuff for a finish. I can work more submissions. I can just let my mind go and do whatever it wants to do, and just see what happens.”

Moxley on why he stopped doing his original finisher, a version of the headlock driver in WWE: “The Headlock Driver’s awesome if you’ve got the right guy doing it to the right guy. It can be like the nastiest, coolest piledriver looking thing in the world or if the guy’s taller than you, which so many of the guys in the WWE were taller than me, it can be just really awkward and stupid looking. I think I gave it to Randy Orton one time, who is someone with a significant height advantage on me, it just was awkward. I was like, ‘That’s it, I’m switching this up.’ It was [Joey Mercury’s idea, actually,] to switch to the double arm DDT and I’d never really done that before. I really kind of perfected the timing and the snap and now I can do it in my sleep. One of the better looking ones I think you’ll see.”
