Swerve Strickland Pitched Trio Opportunity To New Level

Swerve Strickland suggested entering the trios division as a way to face multiple tag teams early on. The approach allowed his group to compete against several established teams at a major event in Wembley.

By securing the AEW World Trios Championships, Strickland's team gained victories over numerous credible tag teams on the roster. This strategy focused on accumulating experience alongside different opponents while supported by the most dangerous man in AEW and Prince Nana.

Swerve Strickland and The New Level will defend their AEW World Trios Championships this Saturday at AEW WrestleDream 2026. They face Hangman Page and Brodido in a two-out-of-three falls match, the first time that stipulation has been used for a trios bout in AEW.

The champions previously defeated the same challengers last month at AEW All Out 2026. They will need to elevate their performance further to retain the titles this weekend.
