The wrestlers, who initially split as a tag team following ROH Final Battle in December, never went one-on-one to end their feud.

While Keith Lee and Swerve Strickland have battled each other as part of tag teams in AEW earlier this year, a singles match remains elusive. The last time Lee was seen in action was on the August 23 edition of Collision, where he emerged victorious against Zicky Dice.
