Swerve Strickland had a remarkable run last year that marked a crucial phase in his career.
Strickland won the AEW World Title but later lost it to Bryan Danielson in the main event of AEW All In London 2024.
Strickland also concluded his brutal rivalry with Hangman Page.
During a recent appearance on the “Bootleg Kev” podcast, Strickland discussed how competition benefits the wrestling industry and confirmed that his new AEW deal is a five-year contract.
Strickland said, “Yup. [I’m signed to AEW until 2029]. There’s nowhere else I would rather be. A lot of people say, ‘Oh, that’s just a PR. He’s supposed to say that sh*t.’ Nah, I mean that sh*t from the bottom of my heart. There’s no other place I’d rather be. Do I have bad days as opposed to good days? Of course. This is a job. I have frustrations here and there. But, I work through those frustrations better here than I did in other places and anywhere else in the world whether it be Lucha Underground, WWE, NXT. Tony Khan and me have always worked through frustrations.”
