Congratulations to AEW star Swerve Strickland!

AEW star Swerve Strickland is one of the Tony Khan-led company's biggest assets. He signed with the promotion in 2022 and was instantly booked strongly. The Realest is a former World Tag Team Champion and has held the prestigious World Championship once. The Jacksonville-based company values him immensely, and this can be seen in its latest collaboration with a footwear brand.

Swerve Strickland recently collaborated with Reebok to produce a limited-edition shoe: the Reebok "Swerve" Answer 3. This product is available for purchase on the official Champ Sports website and app. It's priced at $160.00 and has quite a futuristic design.

"HURRY AND GET YOURS NOW! #1 Shoe," Strickland wrote, promoting the shoe.

Sportskeeda Wrestling congratulates Swerve Strickland on this rare and stunning achievement and hopes this collaboration is the beginning of much bigger projects.

AEW star "Speedball" Mike Bailey showers praise on Swerve Strickland

"Speedball" Mike Bailey made his AEW debut earlier this year. The former TNA star is slowly getting over with fans, and according to many, he will win a title this year.

Mike Bailey has locked horns with several top wrestlers in the company so far, and all his matches have delivered. Interestingly, the Canadian native is a massive Strickland fan. In a recent conversation with Busted Open, he showered the former AEW World Champion with praise.

"I think Swerve, he is not the AEW Champion in literal terms, but he does champion the company very well. I think he exceeded expectations and performs on an absolutely amazing level week in and week out in AEW. But I think what he does for the company outside of AEW is especially commendable," he said.

It's been a while since The New Flavor has held gold. Hence, Tony Khan may consider making him champion once again this year.
