– Speaking to Renee Paquette on AEW Up-Close, The Hurt Syndicate’s MVP evaluated former AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland. MVP says that Swerve “still has some maturing to do.” Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):
MVP on Swerve Strickland: “I like Swerve Strickland. I’ve wrestled Swerve Strickland. I’ve watched him grow and evolve since he was a skinny kid doing flips for no reason. Through the years I’ve watched him grow and evolve. I’ve watched him mature, and when we first decided that we were going to put our unit together, he was that fourth person that I wanted.”
On Swerve’s problem: “Swerve has a problem though, and that he still has some maturing to do, and he still doesn’t understand the business, and I think that’s the problem with a lot of the younger talent. They’re caught up in ‘this is my art, this is my passion.’ It’s a business, it’s about money, at the end of the day. There’s no feelings and emotions, it’s about money.”
