Swerve Strickland is looking to reignite his rivalry with Keith Lee, calling for AEW to finally make the match.
With Strickland and Lee at one time wrestling together as ‘Swerve in our Glory’, many thought that a heel turn and a subsequent match was inevitable.
While Strickland did turn on Lee at the end of 2022, we still haven’t seen the former AEW Tag Team Champions face off in singles action since then.
Speaking on the Battleground podcast, Strickland noted that he still wants to settle the score with Lee:
“I’m still looking for Keith Lee, where has he been? I’ll settle any score, anywhere, it doesn’t matter to me. It’s almost like those fighters in a boxing fight. Make the fight.
“I’m not the booker. I’m not the guy controlling the money on this whole thing. Set the fight up, I’ll be there. I might lose the weigh-in, but I’ll be there for the fight.”
Lee hasn’t wrestled since defeating Zicky Dice on the August 26 ‘Fyter Fest’ edition of Rampage.
Strickland is currently preparing to face Hangman Page at AEW WrestleDream.
