Twitter erupts following Keith Lee & Swerve Strickland's AEW World Tag Team Championship victory on AEW Dynamite

The main event of All Elite Wrestling's flagship show saw Keith Lee and Matt Jackson start the proceedings. The latter quickly avoided Lee's jumping spin kick and tagged in his brother, Nick Jackson.

The action was fast-paced throughout, and all three teams had a chance to win. At one point in the match, the referee was knocked out, and Matt capitalized by hitting his opponents with the title belt. The Young Bucks then got a nearfall after hitting The BTE Trigger on Strickland.

Towards the end of the match, Lee hit a running dive to the outside, and Strickland followed it up with The Swerve Stomp on Ricky Starks to pick up the victory for his team.

Wrestling Twitter was ecstatic following the former WWE duo's win on Dynamite. Here are some of the reactions:

While AEW recently teased a dispute between Lee and Strickland, they managed to win the big one on tonight's Dynamite. It'll be interesting to see if they put their differences aside during their reign as the tag team champions.
