In the end, however, Strickland was able to pull off the victory after grabbing the ropes while pinning the former.Despite the defeat, Gunn's outing was critically acclaimed by wrestling fans on Twitter. Some of them even claimed that the AEW star was the best member of DX, his former group, and commended his amazing physique despite his advanced age.It should be noted that the legendary faction reunited on the season premiere of WWE RAW last Monday. However, the former member of the iconic New Age Outlaws wasn't able to partake in the celebration.See some of the tweets below:Big Gooch 🤠 #BlackLivesMatter@AlecRParThis match proves Billy Gunn is the best member of DX #AEW1This match proves Billy Gunn is the best member of DX #AEWHeel Wrestling Fan ✂️🤙🏽@xheelwrestlingxBilly Gunn looks way better physically than the other 4 members of DX.

Now if he fights, say, Keith Lee (), we'll remember this. #AEWDynamiteSwerve Strickland beating Billy Gunn is really smart because it shows Swerve can beat big guys, but also, they didn't have to sacrifice a giant with clout.
