Hangman Page burned down the childhood home of Swerve Strickland on the September 4th episode of AEW Dynamite, making things even more personal between them.
Hangman and Strickland were set for a contract signing in the closing segment, but Hangman never showed up, instead appearing on the big screen at Swerve' childhood home.
Hangman noted that Swerve screwed up when he said how much the home meant to Swerve. Hangman recalled Swerve breaking into his home last year and how he watched Hangman care for hid child and pregnant wife.
Hangman said he was going to burn Swerve's world to the ground. He said that he couldn't take the AEW World Title from him, but he can make he never holds it again. He said at AEW All Out, Swerve can say goodbye to his health, career, and happiness. For now, he could say goodbye to his childhood home.
Hangman just set Swerve’s childhood home on fire!
