NEW AEW World Champ Swerve Strickland vs ROH World TV Champ Kyle Fletcher! | 4/24/24, AEW Dynamite

[@kadharefinley224]

That stomp on the apron was brutal, very good match between Swerve and Fletcher. Really looking forward to how Swerve’s AEW world title reign will go

[@kidz4p509]

I’m looking forward to seeing Swerve leave the Embassy.

[@jonathanoscategui2678]

Kyle Fletcher is so underrated right now. He's growing in confidence in every match and he's already got to wrestle with the best of the company in Bryan Danielson Wil Osprey Kenny Omega and now Swerve Strickland 🔥 😎... The Proto Star is going to be a big deal one day soon....

[@rub33dota]

Go watch the botch man. He made Swerve look bad in that spot

[@ReelRonDog]

Hate the way he’s been booked ever since he’s wrestled for AEW. He’s put more people over than actual winning matches. And he’s super talented in the ring.

[@Nyfancam01]

Yeah that's what i was saying...... he's the world champ of your company. You have him walk out with a live mic OR close the show with a segment. Don't have him have some random match with a mid card guy. Makes 0 sense. Wow

[@georgeh4171]

Poor Swerve as Champion feels like an afterthought. Even on the PPV he won the focus was on Ospreys match. Then the Dynamtie after the focus is on the Bucks etc.

Praying for the sake of AEW TK hires someone with experience and competency to start booking the show. How the hell is your world champ not opening the show, addressing the crowd and getting a set up for his next big feud. Wrestling 101. As amazing as Fletcher is how tf is he randomly getting to fight the world champ, halfway thru the show, mind you. Its so frustrating trying to support this promotion sometimes

[@kimwaddell4218]

Amazing match. Swerve never disappoints

[@takerrock]

You can tell what a company thinks of their World Champion by their placement on the card. This match was in the middle of the show. It wasn't on first and it wasn't on last instead its in the middle of the fucking show. Also when has any promotion cut to a backstage segment during any of their Champions matches epecially when its to further a storyline that does not even involve the Champion.....

[@jonathanoscategui2678]

Swerve Strickland becoming AEW world champion was one of the best pro wrestling moments and a historical one to boot.... But it's going to be fun to see him elevate every match he has as champion and tonight he and Kyle Fletcher put on a great bout and blended their styles together well 🔥 😎.

@@Drunkandorstonedontheinternet Howso? This just feels like exactly what they did with Hangman where they focused everything on the chase, and had no plan for a story to follow up on that momentum. Joe felt like a serious world champion because he came out the next night and cut a promo that made him feel like a real champion, and immediately got himself into another storyline.

Unfortunately even now he seems to be secondary which is sad. No promo and just a random match that they cut away from the promote the Jack Perry storyline. Even the PPV he won at all the focus was on Danielson match. Should of had a promo at the start and set up a match for later in the show.

[@paulevans6076]

I'm not a huge fan of top rope stomps when the opponent is holding themselves up so the person delivering the move can do it. But Fletcher sold it beautifully - going from an attempted superplex, to getting 'caught up in the ropes' so Swerve could hit the move without it looking staged.
