Swerve Strickland: I Feel Like Everybody Behind The Scenes In AEW Top To Bottom Have Stepped Up So Much Over The Last Year

Swerve Strickland comments on everyone stepping up across All Elite Wrestling.

Earlier this year, Reebok would release special shoes in collaboration with Strickland and All Elite Wrestling. The shoes would retail for 160$.

While speaking to Big Gold Belt Media in a new interview, Swerve spoke about his recent sneaker collaboration with Reebok, noting that it was set up by AEW.

“Dude that that was that wasn’t me at all. That was just an AEW thing like, I really feel like over the last year, All Elite Wrestling, the marketing department, the social team like everything has just stepped up so much tenfold not just not just in the ring, not just the product you see on TV, not just like the stories and the people, like the talent. I feel like everybody behind the scenes from top to bottom, like the camera work, the production, like everybody stepped up so much. Like the last collab was the Young Bucks, they had the pumps and everything. They were like, okay, how do we take it up another notch? They were like, we’re gonna use Swerve. We’re gonna use you and we’re gonna link with AI (Allen Iverson). The answers was already like a thing. They actually let me pick one.”

Elsewhere in the same interview, Swerve spoke about MJF not telling him that he shared a scene with Eminem in Happy Gilmore 2. You can read more about that here.
