Bryan Danielson Furious After Swerve Strickland’s AEW Comments

Swerve Strickland Bryan Danielson

Bryan Danielson has issued a violent warning to Swerve Strickland ahead of their AEW World Title match which could be Danielson’s last in wrestling.

Bryan Danielson will put his career on the line at AEW All In when he challenges Swerve Strickland for the AEW World Championship. Danielson has been open about 2024 being the last full-time year as a full-time competitor and has spoken about how broken down his body is.

That has all led to people wondering if Danielson will win in Wembley Stadium and if he does, will he relinquish the AEW World Title anyway? But following Dynamite in Norfolk, things might have changed.

In the night’s main event, Swerve Strickland faced Wheeler Yuta of the Blackpool Combat Club with the AEW World Champion winning by referee stoppage. Strickland would not stop his brutal assault on Yuta leading to Danielson making the save. Strickland told Danielson he would make his daughter watch him wrestle his last match at All In before he dropped the American Dragon with a House Call.

But all of this might have just lit a fire under Bryan Danielson.

Bryan Danielson Coming For AEW World Title

Speaking in a digital exclusive, Danielson had a very brutal message for Swerve Strickland and vowed to do some head-kicking at Wembley and win the AEW World Title:

Here’s the thing. As if this wasn’t enough, as if it wasn’t enough for this to be my last chance to wrestle for the AEW Championship. As if it wasn’t enough that if I lose this match, I retire and never wrestle again. As if that wasn’t enough, that you hurt Wheeler Yuta. He’s like a son to me. As if all of that were not enough, you mentioned my daughter, and you mentioned crippling me in front of my f*cking daughter.

Guess what, Swerve? You are not gonna get underdog Bryan Danielson. You are not getting Bryan Danielson, who’s gonna fight from behind. You’re gonna get the Bryan Danielson that goes out there and kicks people’s f*cking head in. That’s what you’ve got coming at Wembley Stadium. I don’t think you know what you just did, doing that you did to Wheeler and talking about my family.

I saw what you did to Hangman [Page], when you broke into his house. Don’t you dare do that sh*t to me. Check what happened to the last person that broke into my house. Even for that you just did out there tonight, your fate at Wembley’s gonna be sealed, and I’m gonna be the new AEW World Heavyweight Champion.

In 2014, Bryan Danielson was forced to take out a home invader with a rear-naked choke and it seems he could have even more violent intentions for Swerve Strickland at All In.
