Not gonna lie, when Nana started dancing in his entrance a few months back, THAT was the moment I really took notice, and started to become a big fan of Swerve. Just that little change, adding a little man dancing for a couple minutes when he walked to the ring, opened my eyes to how great this wrestler actually is… Wrestling is weird sometimes.
@@Yin_Strider yeah but everyone didn’t watch LU. (I did) been a big fan for years. but never once did I tell myself “that’s a future world champion” until his recent work the last year and a half/two years or so. he’s on fire.
Yeah, that's one of the reasons I think I'm such a fan of his A lot of AEW talent come across as entitled little bitches that deserve more than they're getting. Swerve is happy to be entertaining us and happy to be on his journey, and unless that changes, he's over with me.
Chris, I appreciate you. One thing I admire about you is that you let others talk and you never interrupt. This makes you a phenomenal interviewer. Many cut others off, but you allow them to speak as much as they can. 💯
More and more I'm loving Swerve. I actually have been a fan for a while I just discovered. I was a huge fan of Killshot in Lucha Underground, and that was him. What a wicked talent!
Top rope, catch a vibe Catch a foot when I drive Big pressure, I apply In the ring, you won't survive Yeah, I swerve when I drive Yeah, I swerve when I drive Yeah, I swerve when I drive Dеfeating me? You lost your mind
Swerve in Lucha Underground under the Killshot name and his match against AR Fox in my opinion is the best match in that companies history and the best match of that year.
Swerve is the best in AEW right now. When I finally saw him come out looking cool as fuck while Nana dances like it's 90s TLC, it cracks me up. I'm not literally him, but the dude that had the sign that said "Prince Nana mark" could easily be me.
So much stuff I could compliment for this dude! But he’s so subtly polarising, super interesting in an always relaxed way. Dude understands anything he gets involved in to a more than qualified level wether it’s wrestling, music, sports etc and an all round great life outlook. Not to mention a great dad aswell as a top human being! We routing for the Swerve! Till the wheels fall off!
Bruhhh... when he mentioned he draws his character from Simon Phoenix from Demolition Man, IT CLICKED. Thats EXACTLY the vibe he emits in his character; a charismatic PSYCHOPATH! Thats freakin 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Swerve for sure has potential to be great in the music industry. If it's just himself or him and Monteasy as Swerve City, he's going places especially if he's only been putting out music for 4-5 years that's nuts.
I love seeing the other side of wrestlers. Swerve seems so humble and well-spoken as opposed to his character in the ring. I've been a fan for some time now and am glad he's finally getting a good push. No mention of Athena??
Swerve is on 🔥 RIGHT NOW. he has to keep the momentum up. Him, Christian with his father gimmick and MJF are literally the only ones keeping aew watchable
Timeless Toni Storm Samoa Joe Bullet Club Gold BlackPool Combat Club The Acclaimed Ricky Starks Bryan Danielson Daniel Garcia Don Callis Family The Elite Chris Jericho Juila Hart Skye Blue Shida Adam Cole Roderick Strong Orange Cassidy House Of Black They aren't making it watchable for you ? That's crazy
Yes your right and that's enough to keep aew strong work around them guys hey sometimes only one person has it but like you said that's a good hand full ........work as a team and make aew good again
Swerve has done something in Wrestling that hasn't been done since late 2010's. *_Scare me!_* He will be First African American AEW World Champion and I will Nana dance on that hill!
I been loving Swerve's work in AEW so far he's just getting started. Sooner than later he'll be feuding with MJF for the title and it will go down as an instant classic feud
I got hooked on to Swerve this year during July, I was watching one of his matches on AEW and I said to myself he’s actually really good. I think he had on black and orange tight pants with a like tore ski mask.
Hes really got sumthin special to offer as a wrestler. N that's not easy in 2023 so i have no doubt not only he will b a world champion but will stand out in his own category. Much respect n keep it up
He’s ready for a title and a baby face turn soon. Man is getting cheered and he’s a damn heel that speaks volume in wrestling! He’s putting on banger after banger and what’s even crazier it’s like expected from him and he’s delivering! All his matches if you watch your engaged he’s ready for the big push now
I heard the engagement with the crowd thing years ago and as an aspiring wrestler it has always stuck in my brain. Never realized it was in this interview lol
Swerve is my guy Im by no means a Aew fan loved him in WWE was truly upset and hurt by his release but I respect him and his hustle to never stop doing what he needs to do. Great interview and I hope to see him back in wwe one day holding gold
Swerve caught my eye during his rivalry with Leon in NXT. I hope he gets to do it on the biggest stage one more time before his career is over. Dude is the total package
The way he beat Page twice and Jay White on Nov 29th Dynamite - That says a lot. HE IS a definite star and the more I see him the more I agree, he is definitely on a run that should have him consistently at the top. He's young enough and good enough without a doubt.
As a black young man dats tryna figure my way into the wrestling industry Swerve is one of those guys u just look up 2 plus Ive been watching him since he was on the indies hella proud👏🏾
Loooove looove him I love his lucha work... he's definitely my cousin 😂 all in all swerve just gets better and one of my favorites. I love that he flies & analyzes :insert NANA dance:
I’ve followed Shane ‘Swerve’ Strickland from his days in CZW and he has grown so much as a performer that I forgot he was even IN CZW and doing deathmatches at that … until he started stapling himself and laughing and then I was like “oh shit, I almost forgot.” Swerve fucking rules; a very bright spot on a show that definitely needs them. WWE really dropped the ball with this lad.
Swerve is one of my favorite wrestlers man i cant wait for the day that he finally has a world championship around his waist because he has busted his ass to get there and hes earned it shouts out to swerve im proud of him hoping to see him as aew world champion sooner rather than later i admire him so much and i really appreciate how open and personable he was in this interview
Swerve took a while to grow on me, but he's been killing it this year and he should definitely be in the main event/title scene. He deserves to be the first black AEW Champion.
Another banger! I can't wait for the full face turn. This guy is definite champ in 2024, noone with half a brain would dispute that, despite any booking.
Yo I been a fan of Swerve since his debut in AEW. I didn't know he was a part of wwe in nxt at first til I did research. Aye Swerve, if you see this comment thank you for everything you've done in wrestling and music. Keep going. Can't wait for you to win the aew title. Rams won the super bowl in 1999

Swerve house boii! Lol
SWERVE'S HOUSE 🗣️🗣️🗣️
@@chrispetrelis5013 it’s definitely time for a black champion! And he will definitely be the next champion.
CVV you killed it with this interview.... Swerve is great... what a humble guy... I hope he gets a long run with the belt after MJF goes to WWE.
Not gonna lie, when Nana started dancing in his entrance a few months back, THAT was the moment I really took notice, and started to become a big fan of Swerve. Just that little change, adding a little man dancing for a couple minutes when he walked to the ring, opened my eyes to how great this wrestler actually is… Wrestling is weird sometimes.
do you swerve when you drive though?
idek what to say lol
...you weren't paying attention. Became a fan while he was Killshot in Lucha Underground.
@@Yin_Strider yeah but everyone didn’t watch LU. (I did) been a big fan for years. but never once did I tell myself “that’s a future world champion” until his recent work the last year and a half/two years or so. he’s on fire.
The silliness of Nana makes swerve look 10x more serious and I think that's what is making so many people a fan of swerve
Swerve seems like a really humble dude outside the ring. Inside the ring he has an aura about him thats undeniable. I can't wait for him to be champ.
Yeah, that's one of the reasons I think I'm such a fan of his
A lot of AEW talent come across as entitled little bitches that deserve more than they're getting. Swerve is happy to be entertaining us and happy to be on his journey, and unless that changes, he's over with me.
He’s said that persona is partly based on Kanye and it makes so much sense.
Cant wait to see him hold the AEW world championship, Im still rewatching his matches against Hangman Adam Page, CVV interviews never disappoint
Man, I really dig Swerve. I'm so happy that he is being featured in AEW like he is.
Swerve Strickland is a ⭐
He needs an AEW title run
Swerve world champion by 2024, watch
be patient he will be AEW champion sooner than later will happen at least in 2024 hes on a good roll now gotta build it up
He will get his title run by 2024. He should.
I can’t wait for it to happen! I loved him on NXT but he’s so loose on AEW more freedom it works greatly for him.
agreed he be AEW champion people need to be patient it'll happen soon enough I imagine he deserves it I cant wait it to happen too @@pixelcrookz
Chris, I appreciate you. One thing I admire about you is that you let others talk and you never interrupt. This makes you a phenomenal interviewer. Many cut others off, but you allow them to speak as much as they can. 💯
Chris has a great business mind, he jumped on getting Swerve on the channel right when his hype is at an all time high
More and more I'm loving Swerve. I actually have been a fan for a while I just discovered. I was a huge fan of Killshot in Lucha Underground, and that was him. What a wicked talent!
Not everyone knows that
Me too
As an LA Native, I’m loving the love Swerve is giving to my home lol
Full Gear was insane live
His match with Hangman was for sure the highlight
Top rope, catch a vibe
Catch a foot when I drive
Big pressure, I apply
In the ring, you won't survive
Yeah, I swerve when I drive
Yeah, I swerve when I drive
Yeah, I swerve when I drive
Dеfeating me? You lost your mind
Thank you I couldn’t figure out what the hell he was saying for years 😂
Swerve is so brilliant. One of my favourites right now. Want to see him, Ospreay and others lead AEW into a fresh era alongside a game firing WWE.
One of my favorite wrestlers followed his career all the way from the indies
Swerve deserve every title AEW has‼️💐🙌
Swerve and Hangman's match at Full Gear was next-level. So excited to see him live tomorrow!
Swerve in Lucha Underground under the Killshot name and his match against AR Fox in my opinion is the best match in that companies history and the best match of that year.
Didn’t think I could like this guy any more.. what an absolute gentleman. He’s destined for the very top!
Swerve is the best in AEW right now.
When I finally saw him come out looking cool as fuck while Nana dances like it's 90s TLC, it cracks me up.

My Guy Swerve Another Great Interview Chris Keep The Great Work Because He's Topnotch💯👍
His Texas Death Match at Full Gear with Hangman Adam Page really cemented him as a main eventor
Swerve shouting out Musiq Soulchild.......god Swerve knows his shit, can't wait to see how he continues to grow as wrestler, and as a musician.
Bruhhh... when he mentioned he draws his character from Simon Phoenix from Demolition Man, IT CLICKED. Thats EXACTLY the vibe he emits in his character; a charismatic PSYCHOPATH! Thats freakin 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This dudes got the “IT” factor you don’t see much anymore.
He gotta be the guy to beat mjf go on a nice long run then go up against ospreay 🔥🔥🔥
Swerve has been one of my favorites since lucha underground and I'm glad he's getting his flowers finally
Swerve for sure has potential to be great in the music industry. If it's just himself or him and Monteasy as Swerve City, he's going places especially if he's only been putting out music for 4-5 years that's nuts.
Swerve is definitely main event material AEW needs to make it happen sooner rather than later.
I love seeing the other side of wrestlers. Swerve seems so humble and well-spoken as opposed to his character in the ring. I've been a fan for some time now and am glad he's finally getting a good push.

Been listening to CVV on my hour-long commutes regularly and it’s always been a highlight of the work day.🎉
Swerve is a made man now, he will be world champion sooner rather than later
Great interview
As a lifelong wrestling aficionado and a film student and movie buff, the way Swerve sees things is really refreshing
I remember seeing Swerve in LU as Killshot and seeing him live in NXT. He’s a great athlete and a killer entertainer.
S/O to Prince Nana!! The best entrance in wrestling right now!! 😂😂😂
FANTASTIC INTERVIEW WITH SWERVE STRICKLAND CHRIS VAN VLIET 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
CVV is definitely the best interview in the business. Dare i say all time
Seems like just a chilled out dude and has great stories :) what a inspiration
Serve rules, and his giant grey coat is bad ass.
Boy, that hour flew by.
I been loving Swerve's work in AEW so far he's just getting started. Sooner than later he'll be feuding with MJF for the title and it will go down as an instant classic feud
He needs to be the one to dethrone him.
He has CHAMPION written all over him.
This guy so needs to be AEWChamp Now !!
So talented, so creative, so dope !!
Keep killing it Swerve
Love the way Swerve thinks about the business, proves he's a true pro and (I hope) a future world champion.
Also CVV does a great interview as always
Go Swerve , my voice for next AEW champion
Swerve when I drive is such a great wrestler 🔥
Swerve is that dude! Love his work a lot
I got hooked on to Swerve this year during July, I was watching one of his matches on AEW and I said to myself he’s actually really good. I think he had on black and orange tight pants with a like tore ski mask.
Hes really got sumthin special to offer as a wrestler. N that's not easy in 2023 so i have no doubt not only he will b a world champion but will stand out in his own category. Much respect n keep it up
More Swerve! This is a great interview.
Swerve seems a really nice genuine guy
Wish him well
Swerve is so great. I want to see Swerve as champ vs Ospreay at Wembley.
That match would SLAP
I was thinking that too.

Such a grwat listen, followed swerve for a while on AEW and hes so convincing it what he does and seems like such a good guy
Haha was wondering if you were going to interview swerve one of these days, he has been phenomenal, great interview thanks cvv 👏
He’s ready for a title and a baby face turn soon. Man is getting cheered and he’s a damn heel that speaks volume in wrestling! He’s putting on banger after banger and what’s even crazier it’s like expected from him and he’s delivering! All his matches if you watch your engaged he’s ready for the big push now
I heard the engagement with the crowd thing years ago and as an aspiring wrestler it has always stuck in my brain. Never realized it was in this interview lol
Criminaly underrated.
Tony has to give this man his time as Champ. its amazing how intricate he is. and now i can understand the calmness he has in the ring
Swerve so right about the grind on social media. Keep going Chris your the best ❤

Wrestling Music and perhaps Acting He could possibly do it all Another great interview Chris
7:59 Funny how you both mentioned Dangerous Minds cause I was bumping into “Gin & Juice” by DeVante Swing from the soundtrack
Love your interview with Swerve.
Swerve Strickland to win the Continental Classic

Swerve has been my favorite wrestler for 8 years now, but the dude is on another level at the moment.
Swerve caught my eye during his rivalry with Leon in NXT. I hope he gets to do it on the biggest stage one more time before his career is over. Dude is the total package

Great interview!
Loved him on LU and I've watched him live in pcw. Amazing wrestler
He might be one of the best guess, y’all literally talked about everything, music, movies, wrestling. Swerve is the cultural 💯
Full gear says it all with Hagman and swerve both deserve everything for a match that they put on incredible
I’ve followed Shane ‘Swerve’ Strickland from his days in CZW and he has grown so much as a performer that I forgot he was even IN CZW and doing deathmatches at that … until he started stapling himself and laughing and then I was like “oh shit, I almost forgot.”
Swerve fucking rules; a very bright spot on a show that definitely needs them. WWE really dropped the ball with this lad.
Swerve would make an excellent champion.
Bro that deathmatch tho
Swerve is one of my favorite wrestlers man i cant wait for the day that he finally has a world championship around his waist because he has busted his ass to get there and hes earned it shouts out to swerve im proud of him hoping to see him as aew world champion sooner rather than later i admire him so much and i really appreciate how open and personable he was in this interview
I didn't know I needed to see Swerve recount the story of demolition man
Swerve took a while to grow on me, but he's been killing it this year and he should definitely be in the main event/title scene. He deserves to be the first black AEW Champion.
