Recent developments regarding Bryan Danielson’s future in All Elite Wrestling (AEW) have surfaced following his defeat to Jon Moxley in the WrestleDream main event. Under the stipulations set forth by Danielson prior to the match, this loss marks the end of his full-time wrestling career.
The term “full-time” has been emphasized throughout the build-up to the match, and reports indicate a significant transition for Danielson moving forward. According to Fightful Select, his full-time wrestling career is indeed “effectively over.”
AEW remains optimistic that Danielson may still participate in matches “periodically” when he is ready and will continue to take on additional responsibilities within the organization. The medical concerns highlighted during the storyline are genuine, and it appears that Danielson is likely facing neck surgery.
Additionally, it’s worth noting that Danielson has been competing without a contract for several months, functioning as a free agent. He has communicated to those backstage that he does not anticipate a return to WWE.
