The aforementioned star, who is also a former AEW World Champion, is Swerve Strickland. The ongoing AEW Women's World Tag Team Title tournament saw Marina Shafir and Megan Bayne come together as a team. This happened after Bayne's original partner, Penelope Ford, was ruled out of action due to injury following their first win in the tournament.

Recently, Tony Khan announced that the duo would be officially called 'The Mega Problems.' A fan took a major dig at Khan for coming up with such team names and referenced 'Swerve in Your Glory,' the team of Swerve Strickland and Keith Lee. Swerve took note of the fan's rant and reacted with a GIF via his official X account.

"More recently, we’ve also seen the rise of some very interesting and very talented women’s tag teams. With the roster at its strongest, the highest quality it’s ever been, I think now is the perfect time to introduce the AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championships. Women’s wrestling in AEW is the best it’s ever been, and these titles will make it even stronger," Khan said. [H/T: Body Slam]
