AEW star Swerve Strickland recently spoke with Bootleg Kev on a number of topics including how he has had positive interactions with CM Punk while he was still with the company.

Strickland said, โ€œI was his last TV match. The All-Star tag match on Collision. I had great experiences with him. Didnโ€™t interact with him a lot, but I always had positive interactions. My first day there, I was taking my photos and renders, and he jumped in and photobombed it. I never even spoke to him or had an introduction, but that was his first interaction to me. I was like, โ€˜This is cool, thatโ€™s dope.โ€™ When I went out and did my contract signing, he was like, โ€˜How did it go?โ€™ โ€˜It went excellent, thank you.โ€™ Heโ€™s always been a positive influence with me.โ€
