While Swerve Strickland and Keith Lee won the tag team titles in a blaze of glory, their hype was eventually taken over by the Acclaimed. The two teams faced off at the All Out pay-per-view, with Swerve in our Glory retaining their belts.

However, a rematch on Dynamite's September 21st Grand Slam episode saw the tables turn. A little unfair assistance from Billy Gunn led to the Acclaimed getting a pinfall on Strickland, crowning themselves the new AEW Tag Team Champions.

Billy Gunn's help has led to a feud between him and Strickland. Ahead of their scheduled match this week, the former tag team champion referenced Gunn's previous affiliations with the iconic DX Generation stable in a threatening tweet.
