Strickland is convinced that his business with the current champion is far from over even if he is unable to win the AEW World Championship
Following AEW Revolution 2024, the rivalry between Swerve Strickland and Samoa Joe takes a fascinating turn, leaving the wrestling community eagerly awaiting what will happen next. Strickland is convinced that his business with the current champion is far from over even if he is unable to win the AEW World Championship at the pay-per-view.
During a recent episode of “11Alive,” Swerve Strickland addressed his ongoing conflict with Samoa Joe without holding back. When Strickland thought back on the AEW World Championship contest at Revolution, he recognized the importance of the match but made it plain that the result has only strengthened his will to win the coveted crown.
“That was a very significant match-up, that was a very significant world championship match itself,” Strickland said. “Samoa Joe is a noteworthy champion possibly the largest and heaviest one we’ve ever had. He will undoubtedly have remarks to make, and I will have statements to make toward him since he hasn’t defeated me yet. That is a formidable opponent, it isn’t an easy assignment in the slightest.“
Even though Strickland is excited to face Samoa Joe again, the reigning AEW World Champion faces a significant challenge. On March 13, during the “AEW Dynamite” “Big Business” episode, Joe will defend his title against the formidable Wardlow. The challenger gained his shot by winning the All-Star Eight-Man Scramble at Revolution, which further complicates the story of the title.
Swerve Strickland is placed on the sidelines for the time being as the wrestling community concentrates on the upcoming match between Joe and Wardlow. Though he believes he belongs in the foreground of the title image, Strickland is aware of the sport’s dynamics. The field of competitors is still wide open as Joe prepares to defend his championship against Wardlow.
“If Joe retains, there could be an argument to be made for Strickland getting another shot considering that Joe hasn’t technically beaten him since becoming champion,” speculates the wrestling community. However, with a blemish on his record following the defeat at Revolution, Strickland faces the reality of having to work his way back up the rankings to secure another opportunity at the AEW World Championship.
The wrestling community waits anxiously for the next exciting development in the compelling story of Strickland and Samoa Joe. The chase for AEW gold gets more intense, with every turn bringing a new level of suspense and drama. Although Strickland has unflinching confidence, there are undoubtedly several obstacles in the way of championship success.
The AEW scene is ever-changing, with new competitors popping up and well-known performers looking for second chances. The AEW World Championship is still highly sought-after, and fans all over the world will be enthralled with the fight for dominance, regardless of whether Strickland regains his place at the front of the title picture or whether a new contender emerges to prominence.
