Swerve Strickland has given his first comment after having his heart broken as his house was reduced to ashes on AEW Dynamite.

There is perhaps no more personal feud in AEW history than the one that has played out between Swerve Strickland and Adam Page. Strickland picked up a win over Page at WrestleDream in October 2023 but that only ignited the issues between the two men.

Strickland paid a visit to Page’s house, hovering over his baby as he sent a very strong message to the former AEW World Champion. They met again at Full Gear in a Texas Death Match which made headlines after Page drank Strickland’s blood but ultimately Strickland picked up another win.

After a hiatus from the company, Adam Page returned still resolute to destroy Strickland and at All Out he will get his chance when the two stars clash in a cage match.

On Dynamite in Milwaukee though, things took a devastating turn for Swerve Strickland. Earlier in the day, Strickland noted that he had bought the childhood house that had been foreclosed when Strickland was growing up.

The show was supposed to end with a contract signing between the two stars for All Out but Page was not in the arena. Instead, the video screen showed Adam Page at Swerve’s house as he walked through it berating his rival while pouring gasoline everywhere. As a desperate Strickland broke down in the ring, Page calmly sat on the lawn with a drink in his hand before setting Strickland’s home ablaze.

Now Strickland has taken to social media to break his silence on the heartbreaking arson attack as he sent a two-word warning to Adam Page:

Hes dead…..

Tony Khan has upped the ante even further as he has made the cage match between Swerve Strickland and Adam Page an Unsanctioned Lights Out Steel Cage match meaning AEW will not be held responsible for the carnage that unfolds.
