And as always, men like him recognize who will ascend to the same heights or higher than he has in his 18-year career so far. Although his tenure in WWE was cut short (2019-2021), Strickland looks forward to seeing how these budding stars, who aspire to be like him, will fare in the Stamford-based promotion in the years to come.
