Backstage news regarding Adam Page setting Swerve Strickland’s “childhood home” on fire

As seen during the September 4th 2024 edition of AEW Dynamite, “Hangman” Adam Page set Swerve Strickland’s “childhood home” on fire in the final segment leading up to their “Lights Out” steel cage match at the 2024 All Out PPV event. Prior to Dynamite, a video was published to social media of Swerve talking about buying back the home after it had been foreclosed.

According to Fightful.com, the angle had been planned for months. A small crew was used for the production and it wasn’t Strickland’s actual childhood home. The segment was said to been confidential to the point that several wrestlers congratulated Swerve on the purchase and he had to stay in character.

During a media call to promote All Out, Khan played into the storyline by saying the following…

“I’m so excited about the card top to bottom, and I’m excited to get your questions, so with that, we can jump into it. Although, I will say, it’s been quite a long night, you know, trying to keep Hangman out of jail.”
