Tony Khan Explains Lack of Punishment for Swerve Strickland – On the October 25 episode of AEW Dynamite, Swerve Strickland entered into the home of Hangman Page and filmed the segment to air on television.
Swerve and Prince Nana caused minor damage to the home and left a t-shirt in the crib of Hangman’s son.
Some fans wondered why Serve was not punished for his breaking and entering.
Speaking on the AEW Full Gear media call, Tony Khan addressed why Swerve was not punished.
“I’ve had people ask me, at times, questions about what’s happening with some of the heels and why I haven’t punished them for some of the things they’ve done. Frankly, I don’t think it’s my place to and I don’t think it would serve the babyfaces in these situations for me to be doing that. In this situation with Swerve and Hangman, there has been some stuff that has happened outside of the ring and it’s really not my place. It would be the place of the authorities, perhaps. For me, it’s pro wrestling, and I would want them to settle it in the ring. Should I have suspended Swerve or punished Swerve for the home invasion? Absolutely not. That’s a place for the legal authorities, to do stuff like that, and in this case, I want them to settle it in the ring,” said Tony.
Tony noted that he was looking forward to their Texas Deathmatch at AEW Full Gear where they can settle things, and he wanted to keep the match together by not allowing them to be physical on AEW Dynamite.
