Security officials forced to break up huge backstage brawl in AEW

Footage of a brawl was shown tonight on AEW Collision. It featured an argument between two popular stars that eventually led security officials to come out and separate them.

A few days ago on Dynamite, Will Ospreay tried to get Swerve Strickland and 'Hangman' Adam Page to work together to take down Jon Moxley and the Death Riders. However, the two rivals refused to coexist despite the high-stakes situation at hand.

Moments ago on AEW Collision, footage aired showing an incident that happened between Ospreay and Swerve after Dynamite. The two continued their argument, with The Aerial Assassin trying to plead his case. This took a turn when they began bringing up history. The former world champion had no intention of getting into another run-in with the Death Riders, especially for Hangman.

After bringing up their head-to-head history, Swerve Strickland called Will Ospreay delusional for what he was trying to do. This angered Ospreay, prompting him to take the first shot.

The two briefly brawled until security came out to separate them. It's safe to say that Will Ospreay's plan isn't going very well, and they have yet to form a unit to take on the Death Riders. With more than a month left until AEW All In: Texas, there’s no telling what else could happen.
