When did Jon Moxley win the IWGP US Championship?

Jon Moxley made his New Japan Pro Wrestling debut at the Best of Super Juniors 2019 finale and in his first match for the promotion, the former WWE Champion challenged and defeated Juice Robinson to win the IWGP United States Championship.

Shortly afterward, Moxley announced his entry into the G1 Climax 29 tournament and in his tournament debut, The Death Rider defeated the likes of Shingo Takagi, Tomohiro Ishii, Tetsuya Naito, and Taichi. However, on the final day of B Block competition, Moxley suffered a loss to Robinson which has now eventually led to a rematch between the two arch-rivals.

Further, Robinson went off on Cody’s injury which had prevented him from defending the title and also claimed that Moxley has been sitting at home, getting his triceps stapled up, and not defending the US Title.
