Swerve Strickland on Bryan Danielson: ‘He’s The Greatest of All Time’

“Bryan’s not just experienced, he’s the greatest of all time,” said Strickland. “That’s who I’m going up against–a first ballot Hall of Famer. I’ve never faced anyone like him. But he’s never faced anyone like me.”
“I’m so proud of what we’re doing for the Pacific Northwest,” said Strickland. “We’re both from Washington. There’s me and Darby, and I know the people from [indie promotion] DEFY are proud of that, and Bryan Danielson, who has been doing it at a high level a lot longer than us. Now we’re main-eventing one of the bigger shows of the year. There is a lot of pacific northwest pride going into that.”
“Bryan told me I’m a special breed of talent,” said Strickland. “I’m also a special breed of danger. I know we wrestled before, but he’s never faced me like this. Bryan is facing me after my Texas Deathmatch against Hangman Page. He’s facing me after I beat Will Ospreay–and Christian Cage and Samoa Joe.
“I’m a different beast. I can’t wait for him to see it.”
