Swerve Strickland Talks Bloody Deathmatch vs. Adam Page, Getting Face Stapled

Swerve Stickland and “Hangman” Adam Web page used every part from a barbed wire-wrapped chair to a heavy-duty staple gun to beat the s*** out of one another throughout final weekend’s AEW match. We requested Swerve how he felt after the bloody match, and what half was most painful.

Swerve joined Mojo Muhtadi on “TMZ Sports activities” TV present (airs nightly on FS1) … and talked in regards to the Texas Deathmatch at AEW’s Full Gear, which Strickland finally gained. However, he paid a value.

“It was that Hangman Moonsault with the chair and barbed wire. Hangman is a deceptively large man in itself. Receiving a Moonsault from him at that peak and that weight and that velocity and velocity already takes so much out of you,” Swerve instructed us.

“Add in a steel chair wrapped in like in all probability a whole bunch of yards of barbed wire wrapped in a spool round it, it simply scraped throughout me, together with Hangman touchdown throughout me. Out of all of the brutal stuff we did in that match, that was in all probability the one which caught out.”

With the large match beneath his belt and Strickland’s inventory being at an all-time excessive, we requested him what was subsequent.

Swerve talked about competing within the upcoming Continental Basic event … but in addition has his sights set on one thing extra historic.

“I really feel like I catapulted myself as one of many prime guys within the trade. And I mentioned this earlier than, earlier within the 12 months, I actually really feel I could be the primary African American AEW world champion.”

Nice matches require two wrestlers placing in work … and Strickland spoke very extremely of his opponent. In truth, he thinks “Hangman” Adam Web page could possibly be this technology’s Mick Foley.
