Swerve Strickland says signing with AEW is like joining the Lakers

AEW has proved to be a really good rival promotion to WWE over the past years. Will Ospreay recently commented on the latest batch of releases from WWE. He stated that recently released stars should give priority to proving themselves on the indie scene.

He also added that they shouldn't automatically assume that they are ready to join AEW. While speaking on the Battleground Podcast, Swerve also backed Ospreay's claims.

“You can’t just be here in All Elite Wrestling just to be here. We’ve [Swerve Strickland & Will Ospreay] always had that same respect. We both push the bar and raise it, to certain lengths that, like, people second-guess can they come to All Elite Wrestling, people second-guess, can they just sign a contract and make an impact in All Elite Wrestling? It shouldn’t be like that. It should be like signing with the Lakers. [You can’t just get to] The Lakers and just expect to be starting five and run the floor and get playing time. No, you have to work, you have to be one of the best out there." [ H/T: Fightful]

It's great to see Swerve Strickland and Ospreay share the same respect towards AEW. Many ex-WWE stars have made a name for themselves in AEW, it'll be interesting to see the other names who join that list.
