Austin Creed Tells Bandido: No More Fun and Games

Summary: Austin Creed said in an AEW-posted promo after the Nov. 4 Dynamite that Bandido's attack on Kofi means "no more respect," and that Brodido faces The New Level next week. AEW's card for Nov. 11 was not found.

The quick version

  • Austin Creed cut a backstage promo, posted by AEW on Thursday, Nov. 5, after Bandido attacked his New Level partner Kofi on the Nov. 4 Dynamite.
  • Creed said: "Next week, it's Brodido against The New Level." We did not find an AEW card that confirms the match.
  • The two sides already meet at Full Gear on Saturday, Nov. 14, in a Texas Deathmatch for the AEW World Trios Championship.

Austin Creed, formerly WWE's Xavier Woods, told Bandido there is "no more fun and games" after Bandido attacked Kofi on AEW Dynamite on Wednesday, Nov. 4. AEW posted the promo on X on Nov. 5, and Wrestling Inc reported it on Nov. 6.

What Creed said

AEW captioned the clip: "Bandido, now you and I have a serious problem." In the promo, as Wrestling Inc printed it, Creed said Bandido "felt the need to leave the ring, to come in the back and put his hands on Kofi, to put his hands on my brother." He added: "This is no more fun and games. This is no more respect."

Wrestling Inc says Bandido went after Kofi, then Creed and Swerve Strickland, on the show. Swerve then appeared in the promo and handed Creed a chain he had used on Adam Page. Creed took it. Swerve later posted a photo of the moment with the caption "More crime," per Wrestling Inc.

What is set

Page, Brody King and Bandido, the champions, defend the AEW World Trios Championship against Strickland, Kofi and Creed in a Texas Deathmatch at Full Gear in Phoenix on Nov. 14. The match became Texas Death on Nov. 4. See our Full Gear card story.

Creed's "next week" points to Wednesday, Nov. 11. AEW lists a Dynamite and Collision event that day at the Maverik Center in West Valley City, Utah, with a 5:30 PM MT start. We did not find AEW's announced matches for it, so we cannot say what form the Brodido vs. New Level meeting will take or on which show.

Background

Creed and Kofi debuted in AEW at All In: London on Aug. 30, per AEW's results page. Brodido and Page beat them at WrestleDream, per Wrestling Inc.

What to watch

AEW's Nov. 11 card, and whether the teams meet before Full Gear.
