Tony Khan makes major Bryan Danielson announcement following AEW World Championship win
Bryan Danielson is the new AEW World Champion. Amid significant rumors and speculation on his health and future, Danielson dethroned Swerve Strickland in the All In main event on Sunday. Tony Khan has just dropped breaking news on the new champion ahead of Dynamite.
The American Dragon's future as an in-ring competitor is still up in the air, despite the 26-minute victory at All In. There has been noted concern over Danielson's health and schedule, and Danielson himself reportedly turned down Khan's idea to have him win the World Championship in the past. The former WWE Champion has said this will be his last year as a full-time competitor.
Khan took to X today to announce that Danielson will be on Wednesday's Dynamite. The new World Champion will address his wrestling future, and Khan promised that this will be must-see TV:
"NEW @AEWWorld Champion @BryanDanielson will address his wrestling future after his historic win at #AEWAllInLondon live TOMORROW on TBS! I promise you won't want to miss Wednesday Night Dynamite TOMORROW!," Tony Khan wrote with the graphic below.
Danielson previously commented on his future during the post-All In media scrum and said he's not sure about the future. He then teased that he would have an announcement on Dynamite.
