Swerve Strickland has often been a vocal and strong-minded individual. Recently, he has gotten into a feud of sorts with Booker T, as he called out the veteran for not fighting for the rights of black wrestlers in WWE. He even went as far as suddenly bringing him up and cussing him out after AEW Dynasty went off-air this past weekend.

WWE fans looked to get back at him as they rained down "f**k you Swerve" chants during tonight's episode of NXT. Booker T was at the commentary desk and was seen smiling while all of this was happening.

Booker T reacts to Swerve Strickland cussing him out at AEW Dynasty

Swerve mentioning Booker T went viral on social media, as he brought him up out of nowhere after his shocking loss to Jon Moxley at AEW Dynasty.

The veteran reacted to the moment on a recent edition of his Hall of Fame podcast. He mentioned how he did not want to get upset about it but gave Strickland advice instead. Booker mentioned how this was a wrong move on Swerve's part, as instead of the focus being on him being robbed of the world title, what fans may remember will be his speech post-show and how he cussed the WWE Hall of Famer out in public.

“I'm not gonna even get upset about it. I'm going to give Swerve Strickland a little bit of advice, just a little bit. That advice would be, don't be talking about something other than the pay-per-view at the end of the night. That's the main event and the last thing people are going to remember. The last people are going to remember is me, my name being said. I'm sure Tony Khan don't appreciate the news, the headline not being what happened at Dynasty with all the matches. They're talking about Booker T. That was a bad move.” [H/T Fightful]

This has been an interesting situation, to say the least, and it's not the first time that big names associated with AEW and WWE have gotten into it. It remains to be seen if this will be the last we hear of the situation.
