Each Hangman and Swerve expressed their need to problem Joe for the AEW world title at Revolution, which led to a No. 1 contender’s match between them on the Feb. 7 episode of Dynamite.
Web page and Strickland threw the whole lot they’d at one another for 30 grueling minutes, however no winner may very well be decided, leading to a time-limit draw. Web page denied Strickland’s request for 5 extra minutes, calling into query who would face Joe.
The choice was made that each Hangman and Swerve would problem Joe in a three-way match at Revolution, which did not appear to sit down effectively with Joe or Web page.
That match for the No. 1 contendership on Dynamite marked the third time Web page and Strickland clashed in a one-on-one bout throughout their time in AEW.
Swerve was victorious every of the primary two occasions, successful at WrestleDream and in a Texas Demise Match at Full Gear in November.
Whereas Web page and Strickland had been battling it out, Joe was positioning himself for a shot on the AEW World Championship, and he lastly acquired one at Worlds Finish in December in opposition to MJF.
Joe acted as if he was aiding MJF in his feud with The Satan and his minions previous to Worlds Finish, but it surely was revealed earlier than the occasion that Joe was truly working with The Satan.
He went on to beat MJF for the AEW World Championship at Worlds Finish, and it was revealed that Adam Cole was The Satan, flanked by Roderick Robust, Wardlow, Matt Taven and Mike Bennett.
Revolution marked Joe’s first pay-per-view title protection since successful the championship, and regardless of going up in opposition to two of the highest contenders AEW has to supply, he was profitable.
