AEW

Swerve Strickland is set to face a first time ever opponent on this Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite from Newark, New Jersey.

At AEW Worlds End, Swerve Strickland defeated Dustin Rhodes. This was a replacement match after Strickland’s original opponent Keith Lee wasn’t cleared to compete.

On January 2, Tony Khan announced that Swerve Strickland will face another Continental Classic participant Daniel Garcia in a first time matchup on this Wednesday’s January 3 episode of AEW Dynamite. The tweet reads:
