Roderick Strong sends a message to Kyle O'Reilly.
During AEW Battle of The Belts on Saturday night, Roderick Strong took on Rocky Romero in an AEW International Championship eliminator match. Strong would walk out the victor in the match, and Kyle O'Reilly would hit the the ring to check on Romero. This would lead to Strong and the Undisputed Kingdom turning on O'Reilly, laying him out.
After the betrayal, AEW camera's caught up with The Undisputed Kingdom, with Strong letting O'Reilly know that he will end him when they step into the ring together.
"Why, Kyle? Why? Why did you make me do that? You put that decision into my hands, and I had to put you down. I know, Kyle. I said, you know, I respect the fact that you want to do it on your own, but there's something that you didn't realize. You don't get to choose if you do it on your own. I'm the one that chooses if you do it on your own and now, from here on out, you're going to do it on your own. You're going to do it against me. Kyle, your comeback was sweet and I swear to you, I smiled and I cried because I was so happy to have you back. But I want you to know this. When we step into the ring, I am going to break you and I am going to end you forever."
