AEW has welcomed the return of Prince Nana.
The absence of Prince Nana from AEW programming came to a head when Brian Gate and Gates of Agony turned their backs on AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland. With Prince Nana out of the picture, Strickland was left to single-handedly face the onslaught of Christian Cage and his faction, The Patriarchy.
The May 22 edition of AEW Dynamite saw a pivotal moment as Strickland emerged victorious against competitor Nick Wayne.

In a thrilling sequence, Cage made an escape attempt in his car, only to be blocked by Prince Nana’s timely vehicle intervention. Strickland took this opportunity to lash out at Cage, nearly striking him with a chair before Cage managed to evade the conflict.
Looking to the future, fans can expect Swerve Strickland to defend his championship title against Christian Cage in the AEW Double or Nothing event.
