Swerve Strickland has found himself with an unlikely ally tonight on AEW Dynamite. He commented about the situation and seemed open to the idea of them working together.

To start the show, Kenny Omega confronted the Young Bucks about how they have been running AEW to the ground. He tried to pick a fight with them, but Kazuchika Okada brought this to a three-on-one numbers disadvantage. Before things could escalate, Swerve Strickland arrived with a chair in hand.

The EVPs cost Swerve a chance to become world champion last weekend, and he had no plans of letting this go. He and Omega briefly acknowledged one another with a fist bump, as this quickly became a situation where "the enemy of my enemy is my friend."

Swerve Strickland took to X/Twitter and posted a picture of this moment. He seems to understand the situation and how partnering up with Kenny Omega to take down The Elite could be his next big move.

There are still several layers to this story, as The Young Bucks are interested in a partnership with the Death Riders, with whom Swerve also has a bone to pick. It doesn't help that a wild 'Hangman' Adam Page may also become a factor. Who knows what direction all this will head towards?
