Swerve Strickland Finalizes ‘One of the Most Lucrative’ Deals in Wrestling

Swerve Strickland has been making a strong impact in AEW, standing out with his impressive wrestling skills and solid presence. That is why it comes as no surprise that he has finalized signing a new contract with AEW, stating that it’s one of the most lucrative deals in wrestling.

During the Zero Hour pre-show at AEW All In, it was revealed that Swerve Strickland had signed contract extension with AEW. The announcement was made in a segment where Strickland, alongside Prince Nana and Tony Khan, was seen signing the new deal.

It was then reported that Swerve Strickland’s new multi-year contract with AEW will keep him with the company until at least 2028, though the exact duration is not publicly known. This deal is seen as one of the most significant in AEW’s history.

At LA Comic Con over the weekend, Swerve Strickland officially signed a new contract with AEW. He took to Twitter to share the news, calling the contract “one of the most lucrative in the wrestling industry.” Swerve celebrated this major milestone with Flash Garments and mentioned that the only thing left was waiting for Tony Khan to finalize the deal by signing it.
