At AEW All In, Swerve Strickland signed a new contract with AEW.
Fightful Select reported, "The contract is a multi-year contract that will keep him with the company until at least 2028."
The Wrestling Observer reported that the offer to Swerve was "so far over what WWE perceived as market value."
Speaking on the Breakfast Club, Swerve was asked about the report.
"They only complain when a Black person gets paid, I will say that. We shake the foundation of things like that. 'Oh snap, wait. That's not what we would pay.' Then why are you calling me? Why are you asking me? If I'm not your concern then don't worry about it. Don't worry about my pockets and our money. We're good. You have your talent. You made your decision with me two years ago. No hard feelings from me. I keep it moving and I'm going to figure my way out and I'm going to build myself up," he said.
WWE released Swerve in November 2021. He signed with AEW in March 2022.
He is currently not medically cleared following AEW All Out. At AEW Dynamite Grand Slam, MVP said he wanted to talk business with Swerve.
