Swerve Strickland: It’s Never Going To Be A Fair Fight For The AEW World Championship, I Am A Killa, I Dare You To Push Me, Samoa Joe
Swerve Strickland wants all the smoke with Samoa Joe.
On the March 6 edition of AEW Dynamite, Swerve Strickland promised the world that he would become AEW World Champion following his failed attempt at it at AEW Revolution in a three-way involving the champion Samoa Joe and Hangman Page.
Strickland would go on to win a tag team match with Joe against Matt Taven and Mike Bennett before Joe put Strickland to sleep. The following week at Big Business, Strickland marched down to the ring with his chain in hand before Joe fled the ring.
In an AEW digital exclusive, this is what Strickland had to say about Joe and their boiling feud.
“Now see, Joe, when you put hands on someone, you can’t be really surprised how they’re gonna retaliate or how they’re doing to react to things. It’s not always gonna be a fair fight. It’s not gonna be equal opportunity, no. When you slap someone, don’t be afraid and don’t be surprised when they come at you with a car, trying to mow you down, and that’s what it was. You choked me out last week on Dynamite, so I came at you with a chain that I was ready to wrap around your neck until your face turned blue and your head popped off. I realized playing fair just doesn’t work around here. I learned that a long time ago. So it’s not gonna be even. It’s never gonna be that even, fair fight with you, especially when it comes to that AEW World Championship. I’m gonna have to get a little more dirty, I’m gonna have to resort to some old tactics. You bring that out of me. The championship brings that out of me. I ain’t a killer, but don’t push me. No, I am a killa. I dare you to push me, Joe,” Strickland said.
Strickland’s current goal is to find a way to earn another shot at Joe’s AEW World Championship before or at AEW Dynasty.
