Tony Khan on Daniel Garcia extending his contract with AEW

AEW star Daniel Garcia was heavily rumored to leave the company and join WWE after his AEW contract expires. However, he has decided to stay. Tony Khan was pleased by this and revealed that he understood why it took the 26-year-old so long to make a decision.

"I really like Daniel Garcia and I completely understand why he wanted to take some time before making a really important decision in his life and career. It’s a life changing decision and I understand why somebody would want to reflect on these things, especially with a major contract year looming." said Khan.

Khan certainly has massive plans for Garcia. Hopefully, fans will get to see the wrestler win some gold in the promotion soon.
