Swerve Strickland recently talked about his new contract with AEW and shared his thoughts on how WWE values wrestlers. He believes WWE’s approach to valuing talent is unfair. As an example, he mentioned Booker T’s experience with Vince McMahon’s use of a racial slur, suggesting that this was an example of unfair treatment.
Strickland also responded to Triple H’s comments about “not seeing color.” He pointed out that even though there are many Black celebrities who are WWE fans, there aren’t many Black wrestlers in important positions within the company.
Strickland emphasized that his comments aren’t just his own opinions. He believes he’s voicing the concerns of many WWE fans who want to see more representation and diversity in wrestling.
