Dynamite yesterday ended on fire, literally, as Hangman Page and Swerve Strickland took their rivalry to another level.
The show’s main event was the contract signing between the two for All Out and while Strickland was there live in person, Page never showed up.
But Hangman had another idea. Earlier in the day, it was revealed that Strickland “bought” his childhood home and Page was shown at the location. He said Swerve made a mistake of revealing something very important to him – his childhood home. After mocking Swerve’s parents, Page started pouring down gasoline on the house.
Hangman told Swerve that there’s nothing more he wanted to do than burn his world to the ground and if he can’t take the AEW World title away from him now, well, then he can take something else.
Page told Strickland to “say goodbye to Swerve’s house” and just like that, Page lit the house on fire. Page then enjoyed a drink with the house burning behind him.
After the show was over, AEW President Tony Khan came out and announced that the match between the two at All Out will now be unsanctioned and will be a lights out cage match.
Swerve has a 2-0 record over Page, winning both matches that the two had before.
