AEW programming is renowned for its surprises, and this week’s episode of Dynamite was no exception. The escalating feud between Swerve Strickland and Hangman Page has reached a fever pitch, with the two set to clash in a steel cage match at All Out this Saturday night. The intensity was ramped up significantly during this week’s broadcast.
In the final segment of AEW Dynamite, Hangman Page took the confrontation to a new level during his segment with Swerve Strickland. The episode concluded with a high-stakes contract signing, but this was far from a routine formality.
Swerve Strickland entered the ring to sign the contract for their All Out match, but Hangman Page was conspicuously absent. Despite Page’s music playing and Tony Schiavone introducing him a second time, the former AEW World Champion did not appear.
The tension mounted as the broadcast cut to a video feed of Hangman Page, who was nowhere near the arena. Instead, he was shown at Strickland’s recently purchased home, which had been highlighted earlier in the show. Page took his vengeance to a dramatic extreme by setting Strickland’s house on fire.
This act of destruction provided a dramatic and intense climax for the episode, leaving Swerve Strickland unable to react. The explosive finale certainly ended AEW Dynamite on a fiery note.
As we look ahead to All Out in Chicago, Ringside News will provide comprehensive coverage of the event. Stay tuned for updates and more details as they become available.
