AEW's upcoming pay-per-view, WrestleDream 2024, will feature eleven matches. Bryan Danielson and Jon Moxley's showdown will be a captivating affair. The World Championship is at stake, as is The American Dragon's career. Tony Khan recently spoke about Danielson's potential future in the Jacksonville-based company.
Reigning World Champion Bryan Danielson has suffered numerous injuries throughout his career. He was even forced to retire once due to injury issues. However, he returned to the squared circle and proved why he was one of the greatest to do it. Earlier this year, Danielson announced that he would retire from full-time in-ring competition after losing the title.
Danielson could lose his gold at WrestleDream because the odds are not in his favor. In a recent media call, Tony Khan said he didn't want the former WWE Intercontinental Champions' full-time career to end. The 42-year-old wants The American Dragon to stay with All Elite Wrestling forever.
"I certainly don't ever want to see Bryan's full-time career end. I want Bryan to stay with us forever and I want this run to last as long as possible. And I know there are a lot of people that feel that way and that's why there is going to be so many people rooting for Bryan in his home state."
