In one of the biggest moments of AEW All In 2026, Swerve Strickland paired up with the debuting team of The New Level (Kofi and Austin Creed) to win the AEW World Trios Championship at Wembley Stadium.
Entering as the unannounced seventh team in the high-stakes Trios Roulette Royale, the newly formed faction outlasted a stacked field to claim gold in their very first appearance together.
A Shocking Debut Leads To Championship Gold
While Swerve Strickland was teased as part of the wildcard entry earlier in the broadcast, he kept the identity of his partners hidden until the final moments of the entrance, bringing out former WWE stars Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods—now officially competing as Kofi and Austin Creed.
The massive multi-team contest featured defending champions Hangman Adam Page, Brody King, and Bandido alongside five contending factions: The Bang Bang Gang, The Dogs, The Demand, The Conglomeration, and The Death Riders.
A title change was guaranteed late in the match after Ricochet eliminated Hangman Page. Down the stretch, the action boiled down to Strickland, Kofi, and Creed squaring off against Gabe Kidd and Death Riders members PAC and Claudio Castagnoli.
Strickland wiped out Kidd with a House Call, paving the way for Kofi and Creed to eliminate PAC and Castagnoli in rapid succession to seal the victory.
A Historic First Night For The New Level
The championship victory marks an immediate impact for Kofi and Creed in All Elite Wrestling. Departing WWE earlier in the year, the duo completely revamped their presentation under The New Level banner, entering to A$AP Ferg’s “New Level” before aligning with one of AEW’s top franchise players.
The win officially concludes the title reign of Hangman Page, Brody King, and Bandido while establishing Strickland, Kofi, and Creed as the dominant new unit at the top of the trios division.
