He shares how he and Keith Lee became tag partners, why he likens their partnership to that of Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant’s, and what the championship means to them. Swerve shares details of superstar Kevin Gates’ AEW DYNAMITE appearance and how it felt to cake Mark Sterling’s face! He also tells stories about “Whose house? Swerve’s House,” his military background, the inspiration behind his name, his new rap album, Tears, and who’s coming up on his own Swerve City Podcast!
Strickland on winning the AEW World Tag Team Championship with Keith Lee:
“I’ve got a lot of pride in that man, and I’ve got a lot of pride in our tag team. All the glory to that man! Bask in the glory is a true testament to who he is!”
Strickland on throwing cake in Mark Sterling’s face:
“He has a cake-able face. Mark Sterling’s a boxy guy. He has a cubicle face, so I figured if I placed this right and I flip it right, it was like geometry!”
