Doctors checked on Moxley after the bout, as he seemingly suffered an injury. However, after a commercial, the doctors noted that Moxley walked to the back on his own power.
Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful tweeted that the finish wasn’t supposed to go that way.
Needless to say, the finish of Moxley and Fenix wasn't supposed to go that way. We're working to find out more, but fortunately Moxley walked out on his own, which is the important part

Update: Mike Johnson of PWInsider reported that Moxley was checked by doctors for a “long time” before he walked to the back. The backstage belief is that he may have suffered a concussion.
In another tweet, Sapp noted that those he spoke with in AEW were optimistic that Moxley is okay.
The victory marks the beginning of Fenix’s first singles title reign in AEW. He is a former AEW World Tag Team Champion. Moxley won the AEW International Championship by defeating Orange Cassidy at AEW All Out on September 3.
