Okay, so I’ve been seeing this “Jon Moxley Death Jitsu” thing floating around the internet, and honestly, I was curious. I mean, it sounds badass, right? So, I decided to give it a shot and see what it’s all about. Here is my experience with “Jon Moxley Death Jitsu”.

First, I spent like an hour just trying to figure out what “Death Jitsu” even is. Turns out, it’s not some ancient, secret martial art. It’s more like a… style? A philosophy? Moxley himself is all about that gritty, no-nonsense brawling, and “Death Jitsu” seems to be an extension of that.
Digging In
I started by watching a bunch of Moxley’s matches. I mean, a lot of matches. I focused on how he moves, how he strikes, and how he transitions between holds. It’s not pretty, that’s for sure. It’s all elbows, knees, headbutts… anything to inflict pain and wear down the opponent.
Then I tried to, you know, actually do some of this stuff. No, I didn’t go out and start picking fights. I have a heavy bag in my garage, and I started working on some basic combinations.
- Jab, cross, elbow: This felt pretty natural, actually. The elbow is a nasty weapon, and it’s surprisingly easy to throw.
- Clinch work: This was tougher. Getting a good grip on the bag, controlling it, and landing knees… that took some practice.
- Headbutts: Okay, I didn’t actually headbutt the bag. I’m not that crazy. But I visualized it, I practiced the motion, the slight lean-in… you get the idea.
The “Death Jitsu” Mindset
The more I practiced, the more I realized that “Death Jitsu” isn’t just about the moves. It’s about the attitude. It’s about being relentless, being aggressive, and being willing to push yourself (and your opponent) to the limit.
It’s not about being fancy or technical. It’s about being effective. It’s about finding a way to win, no matter what.
Honestly, it was pretty exhausting. I’m not in Moxley-level shape (who is, really?), so after about 30 minutes of this, I was gassed. But it was also kind of… exhilarating. There’s something primal about just letting loose and unleashing that kind of aggression.
So, will I be incorporating “Death Jitsu” into my daily routine? Probably not. I’m not a professional wrestler, and I don’t need to be able to destroy people with my bare hands. But it was a fun experiment, and it gave me a new appreciation for Moxley’s style. Plus it’s pretty good exercise, and help me better understand this style.
