A chaotic brawl erupted at Wrestling Revolver Unreal as two AEW stars didn’t want to wait until Full Gear.

At WrestleDream, Swerve Strickland defeated Hangman Adam Page, but that was only the start of their increasingly personal rivalry. In recent weeks this has seen Strickland breaking into Page’s house and repeatedly taunting the former World Champion.

On the November 15th episode of Dynamite, Strickland and Page came face to face as Page delivered one of the most fired-up promos of his career, unloading a series of threats aimed at his rival.

At Wrestling Revolver Unreal a day later, Strickland appeared with Prince Nana and even polled the crowd at the event on what weapons he should use on Page when they meet at Full Gear. However, his good mood didn’t last long, as Page emerged from the crowd, attacking Strickland before the pair were separated.

As Swerve left the ring, Page yelled that it didn’t matter if it was a parking lot, Wrestling Revolver, or Full Gear, he was going to beat Strickland’s ass.
