AEW World Championship Decided in Wild Triple Threat Match at Revolution

Samoa Joe forced Hangman Page to tap, retaining his AEW World Championship.

At AEW Revolution, Samoa Joe defended the AEW World Championship against Hangman Page and Swerve Strickland. Page and Strickland have been in a blood feud for months as Hangman desperately tries to keep Strickland away from the one thing he wants the most -- the AEW World Championship. Joe won the title back at AEW Worlds End when he defeated MJF in his hometown of Long Island, New York.

Ultimately, it was Samoa Joe who won, retaining the championship by choking out Hangman Page, forcing the former champion to tap out. Swerve, in his quest for gold, could only watch as it slipped through his fingers.

During the match, devastating blows were traded between all three men, which should come as no surprise for anyone who has watched any of them wrestle. There were moments between Swerve and Hangman where the former actually invited the violence, continuing to play up their rivalry. Somewhat surprisingly, there were even moments where those two had to work together, needing one another's strength to help take out Samoa Joe.

It became clear halfway through the match that Hangman cared more about making Swerve lose than getting the win for himself. Hangman took out not one, but two referees during the match. In his quest to keep Swerve from winning, Hangman actually cost himself a victory, as he had Samoa Joe down for the count but there was no one around to do the counting.
