Daniel Garcia claims WWE and AEW talents get along well

Daniel Garcia made some appearances for WWE in the past in 2020 and 2021. He wrestled Drew Gulak on an episode of 205 Live and Tyler Rust on NXT. However, he was never offered a full-time deal by the Stamford-based promotion.

Speaking in an interview with Adrian Hernandez, the 25-year-old star claimed that All Elite Wrestling is grateful for the success of WWE and believes that there is the same feeling on the other side as well.

"We’re very grateful for WWE succeeding, and I’m sure people at WWE, the talent is very grateful for AEW being successful. All talent, for the most part, I think everyone gets along and interacts with each other. Whenever we see each other at a big...like WaleMania during WrestleMania week, it’s always love, never drama."

WWE has been collaborating with many different wrestling promotions like TNA, GCW, NOAH, and more. It will be interesting to see if they find a way to work with All Elite Wrestling in the future.
