Swerve Strickland was Jon Moxleys favorite Lucha Underground wrestler |The Sessions w/Renee Paquette

[@stevekasan1575]

LUCHA Underground was LEGIT!!! so many guys whom i am fan of now-no matter how they are booked or how their careers go-im a fan of because of LU. Long Live Lucha

[@tw475]

it was so great. it was something completely different. I wish they had listened more to the wrestling side (Konnan) how to deal with talent. they would still be in business now.

[@luchalibrememes]

Killshot was the F'n man. L.U.4EVER

[@grimmest-888]

I absolutely loved Killshot . And the fact it was inspired by the combination both of my favorite DC Assassins/ Villains makes me love it even more.

[@DannyKnightblade45]

I wouldn't mind if Swerve Strickland brings back his Killshot character in AEW.

[@TrueNomadSkies]

The first 3 seasons of Lucha Underground was some of my favourite wrestling to watch. It made so many stars, and being in it's own somewhat mythical universe allowed things to work that wouldn't work anywhere else.

[@coded3604]

Weren't a fan of season 4?

[@johncarolina4950]

I love that Jon Moxley still absolutely loves to watch wrestling. Only a real head is going crazy for Killshot

[@Jmoe803]

I miss Lucha Underground, because of that show I continued watching wrestling

[@m00shminki88]

Same. LU and NXT both got me back into wrestling. I remember i kept seeing the ad for LU and i kept wondering "what is that??" I just watched it one day and was hooked

[@Tempo1337]

Mox downplaying in the locker room is the most obvious (and cutest) thing lol

[@sleepinggorilla]

Like when he was really excited about Renee being pregnant and downplayed it in a promo. It was very sweet.

[@Unotuchable]

I definitely reckon that was Mox fucking with Swerve.

[@DannyKnightblade45]

​@@Unotuchable That seems like something Jon Moxley would do, lol.

[@tahaelghrib1622]

This is why I find it hilarious when people refer to swerve as an ex-wwe guy lol

[@rundownmaggot666]

Or allot of “wwe” guys that came over even though 90% were in the indies or other promotions.

[@Alrucards]

Still remember those matches in Lucha Underground and especially that 3 stages of war with AR Fox. 1 of the best hardcore matches I've ever seen.

[@BrynHarding]

Fuck, that was one hell of a match!

[@johncarolina4950]

AR Fox is one of the most underrated wrestlers of the past 10 years

[@perceivedvelocity9914]

I love this guy. He's from my hometown. I remember seeing him in a NXT dark show before the pandemic. The crowd went crazy for Swerve. Naturally in the WWE tradition he lost in his home but the crowd were chanting "who's house, Swerve's house" the whole match.

[@ArcaneAzmadi]

The curb stomp from the top turnbuckle to Fox lying on the stretcher on the floor was the sickest spot of LU season 3. The gurney holding the stretcher half-collapsed and Fox left _a chunk of his back_ stuck on it when he was knocked off. It was _insane!_

[@richardpeprah9356]

Lucha Underground was absolute 🔥🔥🔥

[@jacksonkennedy1136]

That 3 stages of war match was 10/10!! Swerve, young legend

[@jakejohnson6954]

Killshot was crazy. I remember his weapons of destruction match against marty the moth.

[@bobbyjackson6524]

Swerve is Excellent!!! He gets this wrestling thing and because of that Salute!!

[@Kr4ShSkeL]

And now he's our favorite AEW wrestler, the dude oozes charisma he's great in the ring and he can be both face or heel

[@EnterSandwich]

I don't think I'll ever see a better live match than Killshot vs Dante Fox: Hell of War.

[@uriahconyers-frye3341]

Just watch it. Shit was crazy and awesome

[@nobodybutsunder]

EVER!!!

Ive been a fan of his work in the indys and still to this day 😊

[@AlexanderNevermind888]

Lucha Underground had more excitement in 1-hour of wrestling than all the other shows combined. It was the only show that I made sure that I caught on TV week after week from beginning to end. It seemed like every single week they put on a match of the year. No other show made me cheer as much for the villains as I did for the heroes. To this day, there still has been nothing like it.

[@nkaKAMPBELL]

So cool to see this I feel like I never see anyone mention his run as Killshot. That 3 stages of hell match is probably still the wildest match I’ve ever seen

[@reinierlara5421]

I remember that match between Swerve and AR Fox back in Ultima Lucha 3 that Hell of War match was 🔥🔥👏

[@TheMattrking]

I want to see more Killshot shit out of Swerve these days. I loved the rope work!

[@doeboye128]

he is so different than he is in the ring , he is a dope wrestler .. He is so humble

[@dflb7990]

Honestly, Once Swerve is done with his in ring career, he would be beneficial as an agent in the future. Just so knowledgeable ring psychology.

[@7StarHeryla]

I still call him Killshot , such a nice guy to meet

[@SSSD210]

I remember killshot vs dante fox in the hell of war match. One of the greatest hardcore matches I've seen

[@HollowJeff]

Jon just referenced killshot last night on Rampage!!!!!!

[@rumtuckskatter]

[@vegasviking86]

When I heard Swerve signed with AEW I was hopeful he'd come in as Killshot. His best character to date

[@Kr4ShSkeL]

Wtf are you smoking bro, he's one of the most charismatic wrestler today why do you want him to hide his face under a mask ? 😂😂😂

[@vegasviking86]

@@Kr4ShSkeL because having a mask automatically makes him a mute? K. Killshot had plenty of charisma.

[@the4th132]

So are we gonna get him writing for AEW

[@jamaltaylor5]

Sitting up playing WWE2k and saw in community creations that someone put a mask on swerve and named him killshot. Was a big fan of killshot and never put the two together til now🤯

[@andrewbushman7083]

Here we are a year later.. excited for Wednesday

[@Jaystiles7]

Jon Moxley Vs Swerve next week on dynamite is gonna be a barn burner!

[@ElSuperBeaner]

I was standing 6 inches from the glass they went through

[@kryceksangel]

Mox just didn't want Swerve to get a big head

[@Infernallycharged]

Kill shot and the king (santos) were my favs….obviously angelico was a favorite too when he showed up.

[@syafiqaffandy3074]

Hope we’ll get to see Mox vs Swerve on AEW.

[@JRMagro]

Kill shot was also my favorite. Him and Marty the Moth. Surprises marty didnt get signed somewhere tbh. Him and Joe Gacy would be great together.

[@coded3604]

I Started rewatching LU just lastnight I'm on season 1 half way thru. I lowkey forgot Santos was King Cruno and Killshot was Swerve ❤

[@kyonramey8699]

In season 4 of ultima lucha, killshot got beat in a mask vs mask match and we finally got to see who killshot was. It was a really deep and inspirational moment where he demasked himself and thus created swerve strickland😂. Looks like jon missed that episode😭😭

[@staalhard666]

Tony Khan should hire the Lucha Underground creative team instead of wasting his money on expensive dead weight like Jeff Hardy. That show was amazing and so perfectly booked. Initial jobbers like Son Of Havoc and Marty The Moth turned into stars ffs. Rey Mysterio was the most boring part of the show and got lost in the shuffle, go figure. That's how good they elevated their initial roster.

[@YoungCatracho]

Man im pissed i never watched lucha underground

[@porkchopexpress6890]

Haha holy crap all this time I never knew swerve was Killshot that’s krazy lol Man I seriously miss Lucha Underground. It was the only promotion that was different and awesome. Like the way they made it look was legit underground wrestling. Wished they kept going or hope Tony Khan can buy the rights to Lucha underground and use some of those concepts and titles and use them for ppvs or just bring back Lucha underground all together. Another show he can use for his big roster. I mean he has mostly the whole roster already the best ones at least lol

[@mylesmohammed901]

The best part is. Swerve unmasked by the end of Lucha Underground and I think they just missed each other in wwe.

Fantasy booking!!! Swerve challenges MJF.. MJF turns out to be the "devil" and his faction messes swerve up bad causing him to disappear from tv for a while... Then swerve returns as Killshot and takes em out one by One until he beats MJF for the title

[@davidmorales5766]

I couldn't get past his lack of mass when he was in LU.

[@iildrummerboy6969]

He was mine too. Actually upset he didnt come into AEW as Killshot. He was so much better. But, the best LU wrestler was Prince Puma. AEW really needs to get him over here, cause WWE has just RUINED Ricochet.

[@HNIC-ERIC]

I see he don't live his character from wwe n aew. Just voice give it off normal guy don't hear the hip hop swag
