AEW has announced that top superstar Jon Moxley will be defending his IWGP United States championship, a title that belongs to NJPW, on the May 12th edition of Dynamite on TNT. The Purveyor of Violence will defend the gold against Japanese legend Yuji Nagata, whom Moxley called out on social media a couple of weeks ago.
