All Elite Wrestling’s road to AEW Revolution has undergone a significant swerve. This past week on AEW Dynamite, Swerve Strickland and “Hangman” Adam Page battled to determine the No.1 Contender for the AEW World Championship, with the winner of their bout going on to challenge titleholder Samoa Joe at AEW Revolution. While their climactic battle went to a 30-minute time limit draw, the more notable result was each man’s reaction to the finish. Swerve was pushing for extra time to get the decisive victory, but Hangman was celebrating the fact that he wasn’t definitively beat. This seemingly signaled a double turn, with the previously villainous Swerve becoming a face and the fan-favorite Hangman going heel.
