MJF says he knows most contract signings end in a brawl, after Moxley's gutless attack as much as he wants to come over and smack Moxley, he's going to hold off. He tells Moxley to follow social distancing, kind of like his hairline. Moxley says he'll get there one day, he just needs to hit puberty first.
"I have way too far high of a ring IQ to play into your stupid little games, Jon."

MJF refers to "crazy, one trick pony" Jon Moxley, but MJF says he may have been wrong about the champ. He's good, real good, an actual bad ass. MJF brings up Mike Tyson being backstage at one show and saying he wouldn't want to be in a dark ally with Moxley. MJF says at All Out they won't be in an ally, they will be in a professional match, and that's where Moxley is in danger because MJF is a wrestling prodigy. MJF says he will pinpoint Moxley's weakness and use every aspect of the ring to his advantage.
MJF says Moxley will want him in his territory ? the stairs, near tables, and guardrails. MJF continues that Moxley just studied guys like Sandman, New Jack, and Onita. "You know, Jon, hot garbage." MJF says he studies Buddy Rogers and the Tully Blanchard's of the world. MJF says after the PPV he'll hold the title. Unless Moxley isn't man enough to beat him without the paradigm shift, and if that's the case "maybe you should tell that hot, little wife of yours that I'm single." Moxley stands up, the lawyer tells him to keep his palms on the table, or he'll sue. Moxley calls the lawyer a "d— wad" and tells him to sit down. Moxley sits back down, says MJF is just forcing him to get creative.
Next time @SilverIntuition – Read the WHOLE contract.

All the ways he could snap a limb or choke the air out of him. Moxley says he'll sign the contract. He says to remember two things, nothing MJF says, matters, and nothing Moxley signs, matters. He tells MJF on September 5, he's a dead man. Moxley signs it and MJF is super happy about it. They laugh at Moxley for signing. Moxley then says he couldn't believe MJF agreed to page 17. MJF and his lawyer say there is only 16 pages. On the 17th page it says next week it will be Moxley versus MJF's lawyer. If he doesn't show up, then MJF doesn't get his title match. Paradigm shift will be completely legal.
