Bryan Danielson reveals what happened backstage after he got concussed in iconic WWE match
AEW star Bryan Danielson might finally win a championship at All In 2024. He and Swerve Strickland are scheduled to lock horns in a Title vs. career match in the upcoming pay-per-view. If Danielson triumphs, he will become the new AEW World Champion. However, if Strickland beats him, he has promised to retire from in-ring action.
Bryan Danielson is best known for his memorable run in WWE. The erstwhile Daniel Bryan won numerous titles in the promotion and faced some of the biggest names in the industry. At WrestleMania 2019, he locked horns with Kofi Kingston for the WWE Championship and got defeated. The match is highly acclaimed by critics and fans alike and has been regarded as a highlight of both superstars' characters.
In a recent episode of The Nikki and Brie Show, the 43-year-old revealed details of what happened after the match mentioned above. He stated that he got concussed during the match, however, he had a wholesome interaction with his daughter Birdie after it. This memory is very near and dear to him and he will cherish it for the rest of his life.
"One of the things that I'll never forget, and I got concussed in that match, is coming to the back and you're holding Birdie, and Birdie reaches out to me, and she just wants a big hug right? That will be etched in my brain forever. So when I think of things, it's this idea of 'okay, creating a memory that I'll remember forever, but maybe my kids will remember forever too," said Danielson. [H/T Wrestling Inc.]
