In an interview with Barstool Rasslin’ (via Fightful), Swerve Strickland addressed rumors of a chaotic AEW locker room, stressing that such incidents are rare and often exaggerated.

He explained: “It’s been great. I think everything’s been exploited, a lot of it’s definitely been hyped up. They say it’s every other week, but it’s like, go back to last week, what did you hear? Go back to the week before, go back to last month, go back to last six months, you haven’t heard anything.”

Strickland continued, “For me, it’s almost calculated that before every pay-per-view, right before every big moment, something always comes out because there are always arguments in dressing rooms, that’s the case in every workplace… But that’s not made for the Internet. It happens and then disappears. It happens everywhere.”

He further expressed it: “I prefer it when people are angry and upset about something than when they don’t care at all. These are people who are passionate about their job and their work… That shows me that you all care.”

Strickland concluded by saying, “I feel like AEW is always on the defensive on these things, and that’s what comes with being the alternative. But that doesn’t stop us from continuing to deliver great products and great shows… So you can all have fun with the story, but then, okay, cool, let’s get back to business, make money, do great business and grow.”
