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

Swerve Stickland and “Hangman” Adam Page used all the pieces 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” TV present (airs nightly on FS1) … and talked concerning the Texas Deathmatch at AEW’s Full Gear, which Strickland finally received. However, he paid a worth.

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

“Add in a metal chair wrapped in like probably hundreds of yards of barbed wire wrapped in a spool around it, it just scraped across me, along with Hangman landing across me. Out of all the brutal stuff we did in that match, that was probably the one that stuck out.”

With the massive match underneath 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 Traditional match … but in addition has his sights set on one thing extra historic.

“I feel like I catapulted myself as one of the top guys in the industry. And I said this before, earlier in the year, I really feel I can be the first African American AEW world champion.”

Nice matches require two wrestlers placing in work … and Strickland spoke very extremely of his opponent. In actual fact, he thinks “Hangman” Adam Page may very well be this technology’s Mick Foley.
