Bryan Danielson is wrapping up his full-time wrestling career this year. His contract with AEW as a performer has come to an end, but he still has a role behind the scenes.
The main event for the AEW All In show on Sunday, August 25, is set to be Swerve Strickland defending his AEW World Heavyweight Championship against Danielson. Danielson has made it clear that he’s putting his career on the line for this match.
Even though Danielson is stepping back from being a full-time wrestler, he plans to still compete in a few matches each year. Recently, AEW shared more clips from Jim Ross’ interview with him, where Danielson mentioned that he might need neck surgery by the end of the year.
After 25 years in the business, Bryan Danielson feels he's as mentally strong as he's ever been! But can his body handle the ultimate CHALLENGE that is the #AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland at #AEWALLIN!?
