Brian Cage had full faith in Swerve Strickland

Before the AEW Dynasty pay-per-view on Sunday, April 21, Swerve Strickland's stablemate, Brian Cage, sat down for an interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling.

While talking to Sportskeeda Wrestling's Senior Editor Bill Apter, Cage claimed that Strickland would win the AEW World Championship from Samoa Joe at Dynasty.

"But that also means we're predicting that Swerve is going to lose (....) Come on! Swerve is going to win (...) I said to him, it's his house, but we live there too. Swerve is a phenomenal athlete, on the top of his game. Mega over right now! It's definitely his time. But you know, he's our guy, even if people legitimately thought Joe is going to win, I still got to go with Swerve because it's loyalty," he said.

Brian Cage also teased that he might go after the leader of the Mogul Embassy following his World Title win at Dynasty in a friendly competition. It would be interesting to see if The Machine challenges his ally in the coming weeks.
