All Elite Wrestling has come under investigation after the controversial and polarizing match that closed out last month's Full Gear Pay-Per-View.
The match in question was the unsanctioned lights out match between Kenny Omega and Jon Moxley, which saw both performers engage in a series of dangerous spots. Several weapons were used, including glass, a screwdriver and a platform of barbed wire which Omega landed on following a suplex by Moxley.
The violent nature of the match garnered a polarizing response from viewers and has now reportedly gained the attention of the Maryland State Athletic Commission. The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that Chris Cruise, former WCW announcer, contacted the commission to ask about their rules regarding the use of blading, the continuation of a match if one of the performers begins to bleed and whether or not there was a doctor in attendance at the pay-per-view.
According to the report, Cruise was told that intentional blading was prohibited, as was the introduction of human or animal blood into the match, and that because neither of these happened, the match was within the commission's regulations. It was also reported that a doctor was present at the event.
The Maryland State Athletic Commission stated that they were conducting an investigation into the match and would be unable to provide any further comments.
