Former WWE champion Swerve Strickland expressed frustration after a recent AEW event, sending a bold message as he looks ahead to the new year. Swerve, also a former AEW World Champion, made a dramatic return at Full Gear 2025 and was immediately thrown into the World Championship picture. However, at the Worlds End 2025 pay-per-view, he found himself in a four-way World title match, ultimately won by MJF through questionable means.
Following the pay-per-view, tensions were high as Swerve and Hangman Adam Page confronted the new champion MJF, with even Kenny Omega sending a message via the titantron. Swerve took to social media to share photos from the intense confrontation and delivered a strong message as he gears up for 2026.
In a surprising turn of events, Swerve had previously assisted his rival Hangman Adam Page in winning the AEW World Championship at All In Texas in July 2025. In an interview with Chris Van Vliet, Swerve opened up about their complex relationship, acknowledging that while they may hate each other, they also push each other to excel.
Looking ahead to 2026, with Swerve falling short of reclaiming the World Championship at the end of 2025, fans are eager to see what the new year holds for the former WWE superstar. As he reflects on his journey and the challenges he has faced, Swerve remains a force to be reckoned with in the world of professional wrestling.
