In a stunning turn of events, Brian Cage shocked the All Elite Wrestling (AEW) universe by betraying his long-time ally and friend, Swerve Strickland, on tonight’s edition of AEW Dynamite. The dramatic turn of events unfolded just one week after it was announced that Swerve, the current AEW World Champion, would defend his title against Christian Cage at Double or Nothing 2024.
The situation escalated quickly as Swerve and Christian Cage engaged in a heated exchange of words, with Brian Cage seizing the opportunity to strike from behind, leaving the champion reeling. The Mogul Embassy, consisting of Toa Liona and Bishop Kaun, joined in on the attack, putting Swerve through the announcer’s desk as Christian Cage watched with approval from the ramp, accompanied by the other members of The Patriarchy.
This shocking betrayal raises more questions than answers, with Brian Cage’s motivations for turning on his former ally still unknown. Has he joined forces with Christian Cage’s Patriarchy ahead of their title match at Double or Nothing? The road to the pay-per-view event just got a lot more complicated, and fans are eagerly waiting to see how this new development unfolds.
The Mogul Embassy, once a dominant force in AEW, had a strong debut in October 2022, but their momentum slowed down in 2024, and they gradually disappeared from the AEW TV radar. Swerve Strickland, who had been on a solo run, finally achieved his goal of winning the AEW World Championship by defeating Samoa Joe at AEW Dynasty. However, it seems that his victory may have been short-lived.
The upcoming title match at Double or Nothing 2024 has just been thrown into chaos. Will Christian Cage capitalize on the distraction to dethrone Swerve Strickland, or can the champion find a way to recover from this unexpected betrayal? As the wrestling world grapples with the aftermath of this stunning turn of events, one thing is certain: the road to Double or Nothing just got a whole lot more interesting.
