The Death Riders have been a powerful faction since their creation a few months ago. The group has taken out anyone who stands in the way of Jon Moxley's vision for AEW.
However, the group seems to have a weak link in them Wheeler Utah. When Mox and his crew turned on Bryan Danielson, Utah was not involved in the decision and was blindsided. This indicates that they may think that he is less than the rest. The 28-year-old was not an original member of the Death Riders and only joined them after Mox defeated Bryan Danielson for the AEW World Championship.
Looking back to their days in Blackpool Fight ClubYuuta has always come across as the weakest member of the group. They always treated him like an errand boy. This week's Dynamite was a perfect example of this when he pinned The Decoder during the Death Riders' triple threat match against Rated FTR.
The perpetrator of violence can begin to see it as a liability. If Moxley is to achieve his vision, he needs to get rid of the people who are holding him back, and that might mean Wheeler Utah. he might ask Claudio Castagnoli And PAC carried out the mission of attacking Utah and expelling him from the group similar to what they did with Bryan Danielson. This is arguably the best way forward for the group to maintain their dominance and send a message that even one of them will not be tolerated when it comes to the overall goal of Jon Moxley and the Death Knights.
Konnan is no longer a fan of Jon Moxley
Jon Moxley and the Death Raiders have done some controversial things in a short time. Mox is in charge of booking the storyline and while they are trying to emerge as a dominant force, the group has recently come under scrutiny from fans and legends for their lackluster booking.
He talks about it Keepin' It 100 Official podcast, Konnan recalls that he first heard about Jon Moxley from a WWE coach. He admitted that he was impressed after watching one of his promotions in the indies. However, based on his current bookings, Konnan said he was no longer a fan of Mox.
“I remember Norman Smiley who was a training guide in WWE and I remember him saying here there's this guy…what was his name before Moxley…Dean Ambrose. He goes over there and there's this kid named Dean Ambrose and you should go find him because So different he's marching to the beat of his own drum and he's going to be a star one day and so I went and looked him up and saw this promo he did in the indies and I was like, “Wow! This guy is good.” So, I was a big fan of Dean Ambrose Moxley too, and I'm not a fan of what he's doing now. (2:15 – 2:55)

Jon Moxley will not be happy after the Death Riders' recent loss to the Rated R Superstar and FTR. It will be interesting to see if there are any repercussions for Wheeler Utah.
