More On Swerve's New AEW Contract (Patreon)

Swerve Strickland is sticking with All Elite Wrestling for years to come.

Swerve signed with AEW in March of 2022, with a three-year deal that would take him into March of 2025. However, Swerve had out performed it by the time his title reign rolled around, and negotiations began while he was champion. Swerve then signed his deal on the air with Tony Khan present. As noted, there was still time on his deal, but AEW prioritized getting the contract done to lock him down for years to come.

We’re told the contract is a multi-year contract that will keep him with the company until at least 2028, though we aren’t sure of the exact length of the deal. It was confirmed to Fightful that this is considered one of the biggest deals in the company’s history.

AEW sources had long maintained that they'd been over the moon with Swerve's performances in and out of the ring. He's expected to remain a performer at the top of the card during his deal.
