The Acclaimed’s Journey
The match was set up on the August 24, 2022 edition of AEW Dynamite when Lee and Strickland aided The Acclaimed as they were taken out by Gunn Club as they tried to aid a beaten down Billy Gunn.
They had a staredown before The Acclaimed challenged the champions in a backstage promo afterward.
Lee and Strickland became the champions on the July 13th edition of Dynamite when they beat then-champions The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson) and Team Taz (Powerhouse Hobbs and Ricky Starks) in a triple threat match.
