I got sold on Stirckland when teamed w/ Lee. Give this man the AEW championship(in a few years)

[@deathsnitemaresinfullust2269]

Haa! Was gonna Let's not rush things with Lee until i saw that last bit of your comment.😅 Anyways, i totally agree Keith Lee should get a belt at some point TNT or AEW maybe both at different times? 😄👍

[@growthcountry]

Don't break them up AEW

[@Tenchigumi]

Their dynamic with Starks and Hobbs is just perfect. Two big boys with surreal power, two stylish and unorthodox technicians, and a lot of mic skill to fill the gaps. It's like a microcosm of every type of wrestling neatly packaged within four men. Can't wait to see Swerve and Lee get their revenge.

[@aaryanairy756]

"Rather than seeing just motion in the ring, you're seeing e-motion in the ring" Such a great line.

[@Vinceras]

Love Swerve! Dude is so cool and such an awesome performer! Dude deserves to be seen as one of the best in the world!

[@Tenchigumi]

I didn't know who Swerve was prior to his arrival at AEW and didn't know what the hype was. Then I heard his entrance theme, saw him work, heard the crowd reaction, and was 100% sold on him. His style is just so damn unique, gracefully pulling off grappling techniques and high-flying moves I've never seen before. Some people have swag walking down the entrance ramp. Others have swag during their taunts and promos. Swerve has all that, but also had swag in motion as he somehow nails opponents with a hurricarana from a supine or seated position. Crazy stuff.

[@growthcountry]

Swerve said everything right in this interview. Please let him and Keith be big parts of Dynamite. They are the culture. They'll help you crossover to mainstream. 👍👍👍👍

[@HonkeyKongLive]

This might be the best total contrast between interviewer and interviewee. I love it.

[@gmorel1916]

I wasn’t familiar with Swerve prior to him showing up at AEW. The more I see of him the more I like the dude.

[@pauliewalnuts829]

Same. 👍

[@Tenchigumi]

@@pauliewalnuts829 Ditto.

[@daisusaikoro]

Man. He is so different not being "Swerve" on screen. What a cool chill person. Amazing.

[@BigdaddyWoooooooo]

[@michaelcoffey1991]

Just another reason to dislike wwe they give fans dozens of them each year. So glad AEW exists.....

[@aaronbarlow4870]

The coolest guy in wrestling

[@kimmomac4082]

Asking who’s house is was that’s the icing on the cake of the interview

[@iangray1980]

"what did i contribute to the world of wrestling". Dude just gets it. I love him

[@gingerella5715]

I'm more of a swerve fan now!! Plus wilbournes sting shirt is amazing!!!

[@UchuKejiMovan]

Saw Swerve at one of the last Evolve shows in NYC. He teamed with Joe Gacy and EDDIE KINGSTON to take on the Street Profits and Velveteen Dream. Really good match

[@B0110CK5]

Broooo 3:44 I was like "Is that fucking LA Knight?" But then he fucking came back around and it *was* LA Knight

[@mtronin6608]

Soon as he said yeaaaaaah... I was like oh snap 🤣

[@lamontjones3849]

[@biz0586]

Same here. Loved Killshot!

[@sokunros4002]

[@edgar22452]

Swerve is 31 years old. Vince is seriously tripping. That's very young as a wrestler.

[@emanuelshead9525]

Was that Eli drake

[@downforwardjab5503]

Jesus! How tall is Adam?

[@theevildice83]

That's what I was wondering, had no idea he was so tall.

[@Fiasco962]

As tall as he is untalented

You would never hear Strowman or Aries worry about how they've contributed to wrestling and that's why cyn is poop

[@Nathan-oo2ik]

Who?

[@jaylagaskins5049]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@TrillyThough]

Amazing how he and other talents have no issue with their booking in AEW when asked. Let Twitter tell it he and Lee are being buried and forced together because "BLACK"!

[@edgar22452]

Because if that shit. Jade Cargill became TBS champion.

[@Tormund_Giantsbrain]

World title? Lol his ceiling is dark elevation.
