Tony Khan Says Bryan Danielson Will Remain With AEW For A Long Time

In an interview with The Rich Eisen Show (via Fightful), Tony Khan spoke about the last year Bryan Danielson as a full-time wrestler and said that Danielson will stay in AEW for a long time. Danielson’s last year as a full-time talent is expected to end later this year. Here are highlights:

On the veterans in AEW: “We have so many great captains on this team, and that’s what’s really exciting. We have great leadership, great people here, and nobody greater, I think it’s fair to say, Bryan Danielson is a huge part of the company.”

On how much longer Danielson will wrestle: “I can’t say how much time Bryan has left in the ring, but he has said this will be his final year, and this is gonna be the year Bryan hangs them up from up full-time wrestling. At that point, it’s gonna be a sad day for pro wrestling and for me personally. But it’s great to be able to have Bryan that I can call and talk to and have in the locker room with us every week.”

On if Danielson will stay in AEW: “Absolutely, 100%. I hope Bryan will stay here for the rest of his life, and I know he’s planning to stay with us for a long time going forward as part of the company. I would want Bryan to stay with us as long as humanly possible.”
