Swerve Strickland Re-signs with All Elite Wrestling | Season 5 | Episode 11 | Culture 3:16

because during the zero hour of alland it was announced that uh that Jesus why am I blanking on his name swerve Strickland has renegotiated and has resigned his aw contract at the time where he signed a contract he was the aw world champion I want to know how do you feel about them resigning swerve Strickland it's workers that work less than him and make I don't want to put all their business out there but allegedly they making about 300K uh former WWE women's worker I sound like a Chatty Patty but y'all put two and two together all right and it ain't Sasha Banks she making way more than that but for him because he's put in the work since he been there about what two years now or so since he got cut from WWE he's put in the work he's got better he got his ball body now he worked on this body he gain muscle you know what I mean still fat he ain't got no cut but he gain his body uh so for him being the first black champ being a World Champ WWE I mean I'm sorry aw World Champ hey I need at least 500k why not ask for that much because you know why Tony Khan will give you that money again he paying people just to sit in the back or just sit at home the back they just sit at home excuse my language they just sit at home I saw Brian Cage for the first time in years and he got a wolverine hairstyle gash should the gills on steroids allegedly ain't no allegedly I seen that dude when he was younger all right it ain't enough steak in the world and eggs brother to get that SW trust me so for him if you got examples of people like that hey Rusev still over there ain't Rusev still over there getting paid Meo is me I think he is I I think he is hold on Miro a just sitting over there playing video games and he making a lot of money so swer been working he on TV every week yeah hey I need at least 500k if you can get more out of Theon man which you probably could hey see if it's me I don't like taking advantage of people but at the same time if I know you gonna do it you might as well go ahead and give it to me pause so I'm about to be like hey let me get a yeah hey yo that's crazy I'm about to be like let me just get that's wild you get clip that if you want just put AO on it but keep going if I'm him I'm just gonna try I'm gonna tell my a hey let's see if we get a meal you might get a meal from Tony Khan because he just like that hey let me get a meal people like you know how he talk I don't I don't think that's a he kind of sound like narar I don't think that's a good idea let me get 800,000 cool he'd be like bet 800,000 cool all right I'll take a $200 200 Grand haircut bet but again that's good for him he wasn't gonna go he he can't go nowhere else I mean unless he was gonna go to impact he can't go to WWE that that bridge is burnt he can't go to well I I guess a private conversation I guess I I no no no it ain't no private I think he just burnt the bridge over there they just I don't know what it is between him and a AJ Francis with the e but it just seemed like they not liked over there because why you get cut twice being AJ Francis you got cut twice some something going on we don't know about and you got cut the first time because you did that uh that hilarious song with Jinder Mahal when he was rapping with the uh Jay-Z beat remember that yeah I was in Rook that came out ah n that's crazy I personally I didn't know that a bridge was burned whatever I think that this is the right move allegedly I think this is the right move for aw to sign swear Strickland I mean prior to all ly he was making the rounds of a lot of primarily black or black adjacent media Outlets um he was on boardroom talking about just kind of his role and I feel like him being this like Enigma in this crossover star and this kind of Black Culture Savant that can be in aw and can kind of bridge the gap like we saw bum B come out today obviously DJ c kid has a relationship with swerve we know Jim Jones came out when aw was in Long Island and a lot of it is due to the relationship that swerve has between the pro wrestling world and the hip hop world I feel like if they want to continue those that relationship and that Synergy having somebody like a swerve Strickland is extremely imperative in addition to that the man is just fantastic in the ring the man can work the man can wrestle the man's character development has gone to new heights as the aw world champion and I'm going to make the argument that now that he is back in this rivalry with hangman Adam page oh man I feel like we're we're just getting started I feel like the work that they're going to do is going to it's going it's going to exceed both of their world title Reigns I feel like this is going to be a very I don't even know how to describe it but it's going to be one of those feuds that's going to take both of them to it's going to be the edge Matt Hardy of of aw in the sense that it's going to position them for more and make them both more valuable because it was able to solidify Matt as a as a guy who can play the midc card role and be in tag teams with people other than Jeff it was the thing that made Edge the main eventor for him to eventually get a WWE title so I feel like this can be that for them um but man I I'm excited for swerve I think that this is over long overdue I'm glad that he got his money and I'm glad that he's going to be into a program that's going to have a lot lot of fans interested so you know we'll see what happens but I want to know how everybody feels about swerve Strickland resigning with aw but we're moving on thank you guys so
