Bryan Danielson joined AEW at All Out 2021 in September, and said this three-year run would be his last as a full-time wrestler.
Bryan has reiterated this being his last year as 2023 has drawn to a close and 2024 begins.
Speaking to The Athletic, Tony Khan commented on Bryan's final year as a full-time wrestler.
“Bryan and I made an agreement three years to the week before AEW All In 2024,” Khan said. “The agreement was that Bryan would wrestle (full-time) for three years. Even three years in advance of the expiration of the agreement, I was already clawing for him to stay. He will stay with us in spirit and sometimes, occasionally, make sporadic appearances with us. But the end of the full-time run with us is going to be in 2024.”
Bryan has said in the past that he will likely continue to wrestle in some capacity after his full-time run.
Danielson has been sidelined since October 25 with an orbital injury, but will return to the ring on Saturday when he faces Eddie Kingston as part of the AEW Continental Classic.
