5 possible mystery entrants for the AEW Casino Battle Royale

#1 Daniel Bryan. In AEW. Imagine that.

Could Daniel Bryan be on his way to AEW?

Daniel Bryan showing up in AEW has become a collective dream for many wrestling fans. Bryan's professional wrestling future is one of the hottest topics of conversation in the industry, as his contract with WWE expired last month.

The American Dragon is looking for a much lighter wrestling schedule at this stage of his career, and AEW can provide him with the contract he desires. The mere sight of Daniel Bryan's presence in the AEW ring would send shockwaves all over the world.

On top of that, Bryan may very well win the Casino Battle Royale if he enters the match.

He could go on to face Kenny Omega for the AEW World Championship, given the fact that fans have always wanted to see them clash on a mainstream scale. The mouth-watering clashes Bryan would have in the company seem innumerable.

But this is a long shot. Several wrestling promotions are looking to sign Daniel Bryan at this point. After all, he is a proven star. IMPACT Wrestling recently teased his arrival in the promotion for their Slammiversary pay-per-view.

At this point, Bryan could just sign back with WWE, and it wouldn't surprise anybody.

The idea of Bryan appearing on AEW may just remain a thought in the end, no matter how desperately fans and critics want to see it happen.
