Bryan Danielson gives an update on his wrestling and AEW future

Bryan Danielson, who was a guest on Ariel Helwani’s MMA Hour, said that his AEW contract could be the last contract he would ever sign.

Bryan Danielson said that his AEW contract was for three years and that this could be his last. He does say that he’s having a lot of fun, and his body may not be the same after three years:

“When I signed this deal, [Brie Bella] and I were thinking it would be my last contract. What I’m kind of hoping is that I’m having so much fun and feeling so good, that by the end of the three years I’ve had so many intense matches that my body doesn’t feel great. Like, repairable, if I stopped wrestling for six months I’ll feel as good as new, but I’ll feel like, ‘Okay, now I’m kind of done being a full time wrestler.” (H/T Fightful)

“The hard part would be thinking, ‘Man, I still feel good,’ and I want to be a full-time wrestler, but because of age or wanting to be there for my kids, stepping away from being a full-time wrestler would be a lot more difficult.” (H/T Fightful)

Danielson seems to be having the time of his life, but after his AEW career ends, he would prefer to stay at home for longer. But the keyword is ‘full-time’ which means, that being a part-time wrestler in the future is not off the table.

It’ll be interesting to see where that road leads when his AEW contract expires.
