#2 AEW provides more creative freedom for wrestlers

AEW has a growing reputation for providing wrestlers on their roster with greater creative freedom than in other promotions.

One of the major criticisms of WWE in 2021 is the overly-scripted nature of promos, segments and matches.

In stark contrast, AEW wrestlers such as Chris Jericho have praised AEW President Tony Khan for providing him with the ability to have a creative input into his character, matches and not scripting his promos.

A unique and creative character, such as Danhausen, thrives on the wrestler portraying the character having a creative input into the gimmick.

Considering other companies are less likely to give him the freedom to be himself, AEW is the perfect destination for Danhausen to continue to evolve and build his own creation.


#1 AEW's relationship with WarnerMedia (TBS, Conan)

All Elite Wrestling's extensive relationship with WarnerMedia is well documented.

AEW Dynamite has aired live every Wednesday, except on special occasions, on TNT since the program's debut in October 2019. The show has been a huge ratings success for WarnerMedia, leading to the show being renewed for 3 years in January 2020. Dynamite is scheduled to be moved to TBS in January 2022.

Furthermore, due to the success of Dynamite, AEW debuted Rampage on Friday nights this year. Other AEW shows such as Rhodes To The Top have also aired on TNT.

AEW pay-per-view events are also available on WarnerMedia's BR Live service.

The working relationship between AEW and WarnerMedia would be incredibly valuable to Danhausen. Legendary talk-show host Conan O'Brien's talk show Conan aired on TBS for several years, and he is also set to debut a new variety show on HBO MAX in 2022.

Danhausen has long cited O'Brien as a major influence on his character. He even appeared on Conan's podcast in 2021. Signing with AEW could continue this Danhausen and Conan crossover in the future.
