Bryan Danielson's AEW contract expiry date revealed; it's way sooner than you think!

Blackpool Combat Club member Bryan Danielson recently revealed when exactly his wrestling contract in AEW expires. This came during an interview segment with Renee Paquette.

The American Dragon made his All Elite Wrestling debut at the All Out Pay-Per-View in 2021. While Danielson hasn't won any title so far, he has been part of some of the best matches in the Jacksonville-based promotion.

Bryan Danielson's future has been a topic of much discussion ever since he announced that 2024 will be his final year as a full-time competitor in the pro wrestling business.

All Elite Wrestling's YouTube channel recently shared an extended clip of Danielson's segment from this week's Dynamite. In the clip, Renee asked The American Dragon if his contract expires in August. He responded by saying that his wrestling contract with AEW ends next Thursday, on 1st August.

​

"Yeah, yeah. That's true [when asked by Renee Paquette if his contract expires in August]. Well, August 1st actually. Next Thursday. My wrestling contract is up, yeah. Which also happens to be my son's fourth birthday," said Bryan Danielson. [0:10 - 0:24]

Interestingly, the Blackpool Combat Club member won the Owen Hart Cup a short while ago and is set to challenge Swerve Strickland for the AEW World Title at All In in late August. It remains to be seen if his contract status will affect the result of his bout against Strickland at Wembley Stadium.
