Former WWE superstar breaks silence after AEW Dynamite main event, reacts to Tony Khan's comments
Swerve Strickland finally shattered his silence after winning the AEW World Tag Team Championships on Dynamite. He also reacted to Tony Khan's positive comments on social media.
During Wednesday's main event, Swerve in Our Glory dismissed Team Taz (Ricky Starks and Powerhouse Hobbs) and The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson). To win the match, Lee dove amongst a sea of opponents on the outside while Strickland hit a stomp from the top turnbuckle against Starks.
Following the match, Khan posted a congratulatory tweet for the newly-crowned champions. The president also thanked fans who watched the historic main event of the first week of Dynamite: Fyter Fest.
Strickland responded to Khan's comments by simply tweeting a powerful one-word message.
"#accomplishments," Swerve tweeted.
