Keith Lee & Swerve Strickland earned the opportunity on Wednesday’s Dynamite by picking up a win over FTR in a no. 1 contenders’ match.
The series between the two teams started at All Out where Lee & Strickland narrowly escaped the September pay-per-view with a win in one of the night’s most memorable matches.
Weeks later at Dynamite Grand Slam in Queens, NY, Bowens & Max Caster defeated Lee & Strickland to earn their first taste of AEW gold.
Here’s the current card for Full Gear in Newark, New Jersey:
- AEW World Champion Jon Moxley defends against MJF
- AEW Tag Team Champions The Acclaimed defend against Swerve in our Glory
- AEW World title eliminator tournament final
