If it was the same route (DFW) I'm of the view that it is not industrial action since to the best of my knowledge no DFW rostered flight crew have been on strike. The precise wording of EC261 talks about reasonable steps to avoid disruption, and for the flight in case that doesn't apply, particularly if you were not scheduled on a near exactly timed AA flight (or other carrier, of which there are many). If my logic is correct then this is before we get to the CAA's own definitions mentioned above.
