Eddie staring into the camera, as everyone else is talking, kills me 😂
Eddie is legit a motivational speaker for the wrestling world and it's fans. So much respect
As someone who has battled Manic Depressive Disorder and Adult ADHD for years, it's awesome to see somebody like Eddie explaining the importance of strong mental health. He may not want to be considered a role model, but his openness and persistence to overcome obstacles is something everybody should use as an example of how men should act. Kudos, Eddie. You're the man.
It is an absolute joy to hear Eddie's story and see him be one of your favorites on TV. Anytime I ever get to hear Eddie talk I click. Glad I found the Swerve City pod too. Hope to see Swerve on TV again soon!
When Eddie talked about how it's hard for him to accept love that really resonated with me. I think a lot of people feel that way to some degree, that they think they don't deserve love or they don't deserve the amount of love they're being given. Very enlightening to hear that examined out loud
i could listen to Eddie talk about random stuff for DAYS
me too
I just stumbled upon swerve city. Idk how I was sleeping on this. I love to hear this man talk.
Eddie has a lot of adhd markers. And he said “I was just born like that.” It took me 35+ years and a name for my disorder to accept that I was just born like that. I love him so much. I wish I could sit with him and just talk for hours. We need so many more Eddie’s in our lives.
Eddie's absolutely right, Twitter is not a personality trait. It's just a fucking app. What happens on Twitter doesn't mean shit unless you do dumb shit.
Eddie is a huge inspiration for me. When had similar backgrounds, similar young years, similar teen years. The difference being is that I wanted to be a writer. I'm 15 years into trying and getting nowhere and this, along with certain instances in my past, that have caused severe mental health problems.
But if Eddie can make it, can get there to where he wanted to be then I can do it. I'm also open about my Mental Health problems and I've been open about it and helping other guys with their depression. Men have to talk to each other about it, there are friends of mine who were going to do themselves in but we talked to each other. That's Eddie's legacy, not just in the ring, that he's helping people without knowing it.
None of us are worthy of Eddie. He is the realest most relatable person in the world. A real life superhero and an inspiration for anyone who has ever struggled with anything
I'm so proud of this man
Y'all killed this episode! Straight epic!
As someone who struggles with depression because of my hydrocephalus and being in constant pain and dealing with seven other conditions on top of that am glad that he talked so openly about it made me feel like less of a freak and a bit more normal at least in my mind
13:58 "You look like you passed away.” (Obituaries) I'm dead LOL
Happy birthday to Eddie and shoutout to y'all. I just found out about this podcast and I'm speedrunning the old episodes. Y'all doing work
incredible interview, eddie is so good at making everyone around him feel comfortable no matter what setting he's in, dude has a tough exterior with a heart of fuckin gold
definitely, a big teddy bear
Loved the talk about "fear" of leaving. I was at a jacked up job. Crazy pay. But hated what they were doing, kept telling them so. They were "Don't like it? Quit." I was "OK. I quit." What a sense of relief. I remember in the indy days scratching for bookings and putting up with bullshit at pay time, fighting for trans despite the 12 hour drive. I remembered being the main event show after show and not getting paid. Wrestling taught me A LOT
If anybody wants to see how an interview is done or the way a podcast is supposed to be done with interviews this is it. These were some real brothers talking real life stuff and it was awesome. Eddie made you feel at home in this interview as they kept everything real and 100 and didn't hide anything. I really feel like once you feel comfortable in your own shoes in life and are real with everything that's when you can recognize everything for what it is and what it's supposed to be.
This is already a great episode!!!
Love the honesty of everyone on this show. Thank you Swerve City team and Eddie!
I luv luv luv luv Eddie Kingston ever since I saw him on impact his promo skills are elite level he puts his heart in everything he does weather it’s AEW,NWA,impact etc. just a class act an is an inspiration for young guys in wrestling because he is just real I love watching and listening
As a fan of wrestling and a collector of comics this is it, I love the format of Swerve City Podcast, they hit you dead in the mouth, entertainment, passion just makes you feel good. Eddie is a real one, much respect!! Bruh the video game talk tho, c'mon Swerve 100 plus TDs & 2k rushing yards for a QB 🤔 I'm wit Eddie this is on very easy lol
bruh this is just homies shooting the shit, that’s one of my favorite things about the podcast, y’all just kickin it
Loved this interview, esp the bit where they put over Christopher Daniels as the smooth veteran of the indie crew. When everyone else was obsessed with Japan and beating the shit out of each other, Daniels was doing smooth STOs and Best Moonsaults Ever.
I feel Eddie on that anger issue, I struggled with that through my adolescence due to being bullied from a very young age. I almost became a bully myself, I was so angry at everything. Thankfully I was able to realize the error of my ways. Much respect to Eddie Kingston one of the greatest. And Swerve Strickland is my favorite wrestler in the world next to King Ricochet. Loved you as Killshot btw🔥🔥 Love you guys God bless❤️✌🏼
This was a complete gift listening to this entire podcast. EK has had an incredible career thus far and him talking about his personal life shaped him into the person we see today.. Thanks for sharing! Subscribed!
As a Giants fan it's warms my heart that Eddie feels the same about Daniel Jones. Is a fan of Urinating Tree & Good Sports
Seeing Eddie with swerve for me confirms swerve to AEW💯
I hope so
Wow, easiest subscribe of my life, this is hands down one of my favorite interviews/podcasts. Eddie Kingston did not disappoint! Actually inspiring. Made me a swerve city fan for life!!
Love this. Eddie is real about it. Like you're talking to one of your friends.
real
So glad I found this from twitter recommendations. Been crackin up the whole vid.
Just a straight up no bs straight shoot good vibes type of conversation I love it and I love y’all be blessed y’all 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾💪🏾💪🏾💯
Yo a year later and dude is NJPW Strong Openweight Champion and Swerve is out here just killing it and a former Tag Team Champion ya love to see it
Last year listening to Eddie talk about his mental health in this episode is what made me decide to start training at 30. I grew up very sick, and only recently had my health turn around. This is the podcast that gave me the guts to ask myself if I could wrestle with my newfound health. It's been a bumpy year, but in that year Wrestling has already given me a lot. Hell, it got me an AEW catering gig where I rubbed shoulders with the whole roster, Eddie and Swerve included but was way too starstruck to say hello to anyone. In just a few months of training I earned opportunities to work backstage at several promotions including AEW, found myself shuttling around wrestlers I watch on TV from the airport, shaking Moxley's hand while silently shitting myself at Revolver, etc.
Eventually I had a mental health fit of my own. I grew up terminally ill and my experiences were contradicting everything I thought my life had to be. I've been getting back into it, rubbing shoulders with the students I train with again, going to shows again, I can't completely shake what wrestling gives me even at my lowest. Anyways, I plan to be back to the grind very soon now that I've taken the time to form the tools my mental health requires. Just watched Eddie win that double strap match against Claudio and it reminded me of the moment in here where Eddie said his own anxiety told him that Tony Khan doesn't see him as a champion so I wanted to listen again.
This is probably just going into a void but maybe it's more for me at this point. I just wanted to share what this episode has meant for me. Eddie Kingston is that inspirational man on my Rushmore he talks about wanting to be and I fucking love professional wrasslin. 🤘🏻
Eddie on the relationship turn, realest shit Ive ever heard. Great episode guys, one of the best podcasts, its so real
Almost a 1 and 40 mins of pure Gold. Can’t wait to see what else y’all got in store.
You mean a one hour and forty minutes? I've never heard it put the way you just did. Also, gold isn't a proper noun. Just trying to help!!!!
Eddie cutting a promo on EA? Brings a smile to my face 😁
First time listener, one hell of an amazing ass podcast for real! Of course Eddie brought me in, but the whole dynamic felt solid, truthful, & soulful! Thank you for the last 90+ minutes.
Eddie is one of my favorites in aew. Guy is a phenomenal wrestler. Should’ve been champion by now.
Fantastic listen thanks for episode fellas
Incredible episode, guys. Glad you're back at it!
All I know is, if I see swerve in AEW I need him coming out to Chaka khan 🔥🔥🔥

This was a good listen, Eddie has such passion for the business. His raw emotion is powerful and seeps out.
Happy to see the boys back on YT LESGGO UCE !!
Happy Birthday Eddie
53:24 - As a college graduate (Graduate last week with a Bachelors), this part of the video hit me hard. Much Love to Eddie
NFL 2K5 still the best NFL game period. The inovative features they had were awesome and never been duplicated for some reason.
Madden 04 wit Vick on the cover FTW 🙌🏽
Eddie, man. I first saw him in CZW years ago workibg with the Canadian boys. He's paid his dues tenfold. The feuds he has had in AEW were remarkable but they felt real. He literary rose the top stars up. Much love and respect. This was a great listen, gentleman Swerve.
I just discovered this podcast and I luv it
Swerve stay strong Eddie the awesome King
I love Eddie K. He truly speaks and says what a lot of us feel and are thinking.

" ain't nobody does it better" ,, swerve still wrestle, man I love a ton of his matches. Love me some Eddie Kingston, dude can wrestle and cuts a great promo. I watched a back stage segment of Eddie talking to aew roster when they was doing the remembrance special for Brodie Lee , that speech was so powerful and moving, Eddie should be a motivational speaker
Gosh I’m so happy for Eddie
Ngl i teared up a little when Eddie told the story about the little kid seeing him and being star struck. Eddie Kingston is the man.
You're not a fan of pro wrestling if you're not a fan of Eddie, simple as that
Bruh I can relate to Eddie Kingston so much.

This show is riveting. I am sitting here watching, feeling like shit with Covid and am like "I need to sleep... oh what did he just say?"
Damn man. When Eddy talks about himself struggling with his mental health, I feel it.
Would love to see the rest of Hit Row on this podcast one day.
Fire ep of the pod
I wouldve loved to heard eddie and jay have a promo battle
Eddie Rules! Eddie Rules Eddie Rules ! Eddy vs Nick Aldis vs Roman my WM dreamer!
It´s a Main Event!
Eddie ain't never going to wrestlemania cuz he ain't ever going to wwe
@@SomeGuy-mt4hq some guys do some guy´s don´t.
@@michaelthomasbanschitz3749 and eddie isnl definitely one who won't. He's said as much himself
Was a Triple Crown champ. I'd say you were right, you didn't fail Eddie.
Eddie is 100% right about Madden. Hasn't been good since 08-09ish. Franchise needs to get better. I didn't buy it either this year. I feel like Eddie's my friend now
That link to the FBZ youtube is heart warming.
