Will Ospreay & Swerve Strickland challenge Young Bucks for AEW All In with key stipulation
Swerve Strickland and Will Ospreay challenged the Young Bucks for next month’s AEW All In: Texas, but with a stipulation that could change the future of AEW.
During Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite, Nicholas & Matthew Jackson used their roles as executive vice presidents to order Ospreay and Strickland to go out for their planned tag team match to kick off the show with no notice.
After Strickland and Ospreay defeated Blake Christian and Lee Johnson, Ospreay and Strickland verbally confronted the Bucks who came out during the match to distract them. After saying how tired they were of their interference in their business, Strickland issued a challenge for All In.
Ospreay then upped the ante, daring the Bucks to put their EVP titles up in the match followed by Strickland hitting a Swerve Stomp to the Bucks and security on the outside of the ring.
In a later segment, the Bucks didn’t accept the challenge and instead suspended Strickland for a week without pay due to him striking company officials. That played into the end of the show as the Bucks joined the Death Riders in attacking Hangman Page. The Opps and Will Ospreay eventually came out to aid Page, but there was no Strickland.
The two teams have been at odds for months.
