During Wednesday’s episode of AEW Dynamite, Swerve Strickland relentlessly attacked The Hurt Syndicate, with a good reason, he believes.
When pondered on the subject backstage, Strickland stated,
“Justified? After what they just did to me? For the past three weeks, you wanna ask me if that was justified? No, that was justice. Period. You think I’m satisfied with it? No, I’m not gonna be satisfied till I get vengeance at Full Gear this Saturday. That was just a taste of what I can do. You know what’s funny? You know who taught me to do that? Oddly enough, it was MVP, the man that originated all this. Yeah, I learned that from you. But I picked up a couple things along the way as well. Just 45 minutes up the road I got drafted to the military. So, Reading, Pennsylvania has a little — a close feeling to me. My DNA for who I became started here, and that’s something I showed out there tonight. So just imagine what I’m going to show this Saturday at Full Gear in Newark, New Jersey. Bobby, it’s gonna be fun, for me, that is.”

Meanwhile, on TNA Impact yesterday, Steve Maclin was featured in a vignette, reflecting on his past, including his tenure in the US Marine Corps.
Maclin took to Twitter to share his thoughts on crafting the segment.
His tweet reads, “Putting this together was a dream come true. To realistically show the mental state of millions of combat veterans & the struggles we face on a daily basis is, & always has been, a very important piece of my work as a professional wrestler. I hope you enjoy a look into my mind.”
