Swerve Strickland reacts to Tony Khan making a jaw-dropping change to his AEW All Out match after arson on Dynamite
Swerve Strickland is set to face Hangman Adam Page in a Steel Cage Match at the upcoming All Out PPV. However, after this week's Wednesday Night Dynamite, AEW CEO Tony Khan made a major change to his match. The King of Swerve has now sent a message to Khan on X (Twitter).
This week's episode of AEW's flagship show featured a contract signing segment between Strickland and Hangman. However, the latter never made it to the show because he was busy committing arson. Earlier, The King of Swerve had informed his fans that he bought his childhood home, which his family had to give away due to financial problems.
However, Strickland's happiness was short-lived as Hangman Page burned down his childhood home during the contract signing segment. Later, Tony Khan took to his X account and announced that the upcoming encounter between Page and Swerve would be an unsanctioned Lights Out Steel Cage Match. The AEW honcho also claimed that his company shouldn't be held accountable for the events in Chicago this weekend.
Strickland reacted to Khan's post and said that the blood was in the latter's hands now.
"Blood is on [sic] your hands now," he wrote.
Swerve Strickland vs. Hangman Adam Page will be the main event of All Out 2024
Reigning AEW World Champion Bryan Danielson will defend his title against current TNT Champion Jack Perry at All Out this weekend. Therefore, it was assumed that The American Dragon would be featured in the main event of the pay-per-view.
However, Wrestling Observe Live reported that the Hangman Page vs. Swerve Strickland bout will headline the upcoming event on September 7. Later, The New Flavor confirmed the report on his X account.
Swerve Strickland and Hangman Adam Page have locked horns in three singles matches thus far. The King of Swerve emerged victorious twice last year, while their latest encounter ended in a time-limit draw. It will be interesting to see if Page defeats Strickland this weekend.
