Kevin Gates is not one to mess with — the popular rapper straight-up clocked AEW star Tony Nese during Dynamite on Wednesday … after he was told his music sucks!!

It all went down at the Gas South Arena in Duluth, GA … where Gates was standing ringside as the newly-crowned tag team champs, Keith Lee and Swerve Strickland, celebrated their titles in the ring.

During the segment, Nese and his on-screen manager, Mark Sterling, interrupted the festivities … and the duo immediately went up to Gates and demanded he sign a petition to have Strickland removed from the AEW roster.

Gates refused … which set off Sterling, who said, “Just like Swerve Strickland, you’re untrustworthy, and your music sucks!!!”

After Tony stepped in between Gates and Sterling … and BOOM, down went Nese with a mean right hand from the 36-year-old “2 Phones” hit-maker.

Based on the vid of the incident, it certainly looked like Gates made contact with Nese … which sent him to the ground.

The AEW fans ate it up … applauding the AEW superfan for exacting some revenge on Nese for crashing the celebration.

Maybe next time, Nese will think twice before coming for Gates’ music … or maybe we can see them duking it out in the ring soon??
