Jim Ross recently talked about a wide range of topics on his Grilling JR podcast.
During the podcast, the WWE Hall of Famer discussed the progression of AEW World Heavyweight Champion Swerve Strickland.
“I thought they told a great story and had a great match. What’s happening here is that we’re seeing the construction of the Swerve Strickland brand, and he’s a really talented kid. His best days are yet to come, and my god, he’s still young, he’s athletic. He’s motivated, which is important. I think he takes the fact that he’s the first African-American AEW Champion very seriously, as he should, and he is.”
