AEW has signed some interesting names so far in 2021, and it’s been rumored for weeks now that Bryan Danielson is AEW bound. It was originally reported that the former WWE Champion would be making his first AEW appearance at Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York on September 22, but it appears that the company has moved his debut up.
Cassidy Haynes of Bodyslam.net is reporting that multiple sources have confirmed the new plan is for Bryan Danielson to make his debut with All Elite Wrestling at the All Out pay-per-view.
It’s also being reported that one of the reasons why the decision was made is due to concerns internally regarding COVID-19 mandates and restrictions in New York. Unless plans change at this point it seems that Bryan Danielson’s AEW debut is a lock for All Out in Chicago.
All Out will air live on Sunday, September 5. Stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
