Some times the spots you don’t expect to happen turn out to be the best.
Over the last month, Wardlow has been facing giants that MJF has paid to take out the rising AEW star. In these matches we have seen Wardlow bust out some impressive moves for a big man. One such occasion was an insane vertical leap for a Swanton Bomb, obviously made famous by fellow AEW roster member Jeff Hardy.
While speaking to Superstar Crossover, Wardlow revealed that Jeff Hardy spoke to him backstage after the spot. Hardy complimented Wardlow for his own version of the Swanton Bomb.
“After I did the Swanton against Lance Archer, I’m in the locker room and Jeff comes up, you know, gives me knuckles and goes, ‘That was a nice Swanton. Very graceful’ and I stood there with this smile on my face for about ten minutes, speechless. So to have Jeff Hardy compliment my Swanton Bomb was absolutely insane.”
