The July 9 episode of AEW Dynamite saw Swerve Strickland absolutely destroy the Young Bucks limo with an excavator. As it turns out, Strickland has now revealed that he didnt have a license to use the excavator in the first place.
While speaking to Comicbook Nation, Swerve Strickland was asked if destroying the Young Bucks limo was as fun as it looked. He said it absolutely was, calling it 100%, even 150% fun. For him, anything thats clean and luxurious facing total destruction is always awesome, and being the one responsible made it even better.
Strickland revealed how they told him he needed a license to operate the excavator, but he insisted on driving it himself, stating that hed pay the fine later because it had to be him behind the controls.
Strickland said he only learned a couple of moves with the machine beforehand and made sure he didnt fiddle with it too much, feeling that was all he needed to create the moment.
For Swerve, it was an incredible time and truly fun, and he loved making that kind of must-watch TV. As much as he enjoys great in-ring wrestling, he also wants to create memorable moments. Being part of something like smashing the limo right before All In felt like one of those special memories kids would carry into adulthood and eventually show their own children. Thats exactly the kind of legacy he wants.
Whether or not he had a license, Swerve Strickland created one of the most talked-about moments on AEW television this year. So, Strickland achieved the goal he had in mind and thats all that mattered to him in the end.
