Top AEW Star Convinced Bryan Danielson To Sign With AEW

Bryan Danielson made his official debut with All Elite Wrestling at the All Out pay-per-view last year, and since then he’s had a consistent presence on AEW programming.

Recently Danielson has been feuding with former AEW World Champion Jon Moxley, and during an interview with Jim Varsallone AEW President Tony Khan explained that Moxley was one of the big reasons why Danielson joined the company.

“I don’t know if people know, Jon Moxley is a big reason why Bryan Danielson came to AEW in the first place. He really vouched for this place, he gave his word to Bryan that this is a great place to work. And that helped connect me to Bryan Danielson, that Mox gave him that reference, you know,” Tony stated. “That I am a good person to work for and that this is a good company to come to.”

Tony Khan then went on to praise Bryan Danielson, and what his signing meant for All Elite Wrestling while hyping up his match at Revolution.

“Bryan Danielson is one of the biggest wrestlers in the world,” Tony stated. “One of the most recognizable, successful, famous wrestlers on the planet, and when he came to AEW, it was a huge get for us. Their story goes back a long time, they know each other very well. I think they are going to have an amazing match.”

Bryan Danielson and Jon Moxley will face off when AEW Revolution airs tonight on pay-per-view. Stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
