Excited that WWE officially released him! As I've said before I think he'd be more interesting anywhere outside WWE.
From a company perspective I think Bellator and RiZiN should both pursue him with great offers. Done right, Bellator could even use him to make them look smarter than UFC (for once). Essentially, bill him as a CM Punk who can actually fight (without actually saying it). Just have him train for a year then put him against a can. Even if he does horribly there's way his first fight could be as bad as Punk's.
UFC might want to make him an offer, but it might make them look bad after signing Punk. Plus, he'd get eaten alive by the better UFC heavyweights. The thing a lot of people don't realize about MMA though is the bigger divisions are less skill dependent than the smaller divisions. This benefits Swagger as he's too big to fight at anything but HW. Still, unless he got some experience fighting in lower level MMA he'd be getting messed up by unranked guys.
NJPW would be the best fit. But they don't really need him. They could make him a reasonable offer and if he takes it, great. If not NJPW will still continue to prosper.

Yeah, it's his career and decision. No sweat off my brow on what he does. He could become a beach bum for all I care.

I'd love to see him go to New Japan and be repackaged as the new Dr. Death.

I think ROH could be a good fit for him. Plus they could use some talent at this point.

I don't really care but NJPW seems like the best place

He's one of the few guys I'd love to see outside the WWE style. I'd love to see him work with Matt Riddle.

With his size he could go to Lucha Underground and be a God. A literal God.

I don't care where he goes off to, as long as that place isn't ROH or LU. Let him go to Impact and have a three way feud with Lashley and AeP that ends in a three way MMA fight with Bellator that includes a Dusty finish.

I would usually agree with you but as LU has made so many people I didn't like interesting I am curious what they could do with a Jack Swagger. I could see Swagger in the Rabbit tribe or as one of Marty Martinez' preppy friends.

I rather LU have actual luchadors. They about have as many Mexicans as that Brad Pitt movie "The Mexican".

I'm not sure if he's able to go to Japan due to his arrest record. If he is, though, definitely New Japan.

Gigolo. You know he's just dying to tell someone to "get on your knees" again.

I think ROH could be a good fit for him. Plus they could use some talent at this point. They're going to be in need of a top heel in the very near future with Adam Cole seemingly on the way out.
