Swerve Strickland comments on AJ Styles potentially working for AEW
While speaking to Monopoly Events, Swerve Strickland commented on if he is interested in having a potential match against AJ Styles…
“At this point, I think I’m becoming someone that AJ Styles wants to compete against instead.
I’m pushing myself to be at the top of this game. So I’m not chasing after anybody’s matches. I want those matches to chase after me now. So, I’m happy for AJ and proud of AJ. He’s someone I studied endlessly — him alongside Bryan Danielson and guys like that from that era. Nigel, too. I looked up to those guys and watched them closely.
AJ’s earned more than enough in his career to either walk away from it or continue on and do something different and unique with the generation of guys he’s curated and kind of spawned. His influence really helped shape an AEW style.
So if he wants to take a chance and come over to AEW, which he is more than capable of doing — he’s more than healthy and in great shape mentally, hopefully, and physically from what I can see — to compete with All Elite Wrestling, just know we’re all here, open and waiting if he decides to make that jump.”
