Daniel Garcia Reflects On Loss To Jon Moxley, ‘These People Don’t Beat Me, I Beat Myself Every Single Time’
Daniel Garcia reflects on another heartbreaking loss.
On the August 27 edition of AEW Dynamite, Daniel Garcia lost another big singles match, this time falling to Jon Moxley.
Following the conclusion of the show, AEW cameras caught up with a very frustrated Garcia backstage.
“I started this fight with the Death Riders about a year ago when it was real grunt work, when there was no glory, when there was no titles on the line. I would walk into that locker room every single week looking to my left and looking to my right for any of our top guys, any of our heroes to come and help me in this fight when it wasn’t about titles, when it was about saving AEW, when it was about restoring the feeling — like we cared about that. It took the heroes long enough but they finally came in, they finally helped out and they won. We thought they won because I walked into the locker room today and I didn’t see any of the heroes. Where they at? Ospreay’s gone. Swerve’s gone. The person who was waiting to get his hands on Jon Moxley, me. I was waiting in the parking lot a year ago with the Dark Order and Karen Jarrett waiting to get my hands on the Death Riders, salivating at the mouth to get my hands on the Death Riders and tonight, I finally got it. I didn’t have to wait at a parking lot. I got him in the middle of the ring and he beat me. He didn’t beat me by tapping me out, he didn’t beat me by hitting me with a move and pinning me, he beat me because I made a mistake. I made a mistake like I always make mistakes. These people don’t beat me, I beat myself every single time. I make mistakes.”
Since losing the TNT Championship to Adam Cole in April, Garcia has only won one of his four singles matches.
