On a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, WWE Hall of Famers Mark Henry and Bully Ray discussed the contract signing segment between Samoa Joe and Swerve Strickland on last week’s episode of AEW Dynamite.
Henry said, “I thought it was awesome. Swerve Strickland’s on fire. And even the physicality — the physicality wasn’t wrestling. That was — ‘Man, screw you.’ ‘No, screw you.’ … The headbutt to the face, and you see the knot rise up on Joe. I mean, it was instantaneous like the cartoon. … He shoot headbutted Swerve in the face. I’m like, ‘What the hell is going on? We gonna sign in blood now?’”
Ray said, “The only thing that I would’ve changed was the amount of times Joe punched Swerve in the jaw with a chain wrapped around his hand. He hit him between 12 and 15 times. … He shouldn’t really get back up. … I probably would’ve just popped him once with the chain in the jaw, knocked him out cold.“
