Strickland commented on what he thinks a wrestling match between Kendrick Lamar and Drake would be like during a recent interview with Shakiel Mahjouri. He compared the potential match between them to Kenny Omega versus Brian Danielson. He chose this comparison because, in his eyes, the issues between Drake and Kendrick are largely philosophical.

"If I had to compare it in a wrestling sense, man, I think that would be like Kenny [Omega] and Will Ospreay type feel. If you had to put those guys up of that generation. It's crazy for me, but I feel like the difference is just the difference of philosophies and what success is. That's how I saw what Kendrick and Drake was. I feel like that's the same way of like a Kenny, and maybe not as much Will, but maybe more of like a Kenny and Bryan Danielson. There are two different types of philosophies of what pro wrestling truly is of this generation."
