Swerve Strickland has his crew.
The former AEW World Champion, Swerve Strickland might be dealing with a certain crew known as the Hurt Syndicate. But when It comes to winding down and going to a bar, sometimes relaxing is never the case and Strickland knows if he were to get into a fight at a bar, there is a list of AEW talent he’d want to have his back if necessary.
“I’m bringing (Eddie) Kingston. He fights dirty. I like that. I need somebody who is going to move the crowd, so Samoa Joe. You look at Joe wrong, you know that you lost already. Darby is going to throw his body at somebody. He’s going to jump off the bar. He’s scrappy. You can’t hurt a Darby. He’s my crazy white boy. Jake Hager. He’s got reach. Those are my guys,” he said to No Contest Wrestling with O’Shea Jackson Jr. and TJ Jefferson.
Strickland is set for his return on the Halloween Eve edition of AEW Dynamite where he will battle Shelton Benjamin who is on a winning streak over Lio Rush and Sammy Guevara.
