Bryan Danielson has a bit more left in the tank.
During the main event of this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite, Danielson came out to cut a promo where he revealed that his full-time career will come to an end when he loses the AEW World Title.
Danielson noted that winning the title was the favorite moment of his career and commented on needing neck surgery sooner rather than later. While he admitted that it was probably time to go home and get the surgery/spend time with his family, he refuses to retire as AEW World Champion.
He then issued a challenge to anyone and everyone, which led to Jack Perry coming out and promising to retire Danielson at All Out 2024. Perry then attacked Danielson to end the show.

Jon Moxley has returned to AEW television.
In the opening segment of week’s episode of AEW Dynamite, The Blackpool Combat Club member came out to cut a promo where he teased a feud with Darby Allin.
Moxley wound up cryptically telling Tony Schiavone that it will take time for people to wrap their heads around this but it is “not your company anymore.” It’s worth noting that Shane McMahon was trending #1 on Twitter following that line.
Later in a backstage segment, it appears Moxley aligned himself with Marina Shafir.
Moxley was backstage when Marina attacked a handful of stage hands as Moxley asked, “You know what we need around here?”
After Marina disposed of various people, Moxley answered his own question with “humility.”

Fallout from All In London
New AEW World Champion Bryan Danielson, who has teased retirement recently, has no idea what his future with AEW is going to look like following his win at All In.
Danielson, in the post All In press conference, stated that he hasn’t put much thought into his pro wrestling future, after teasing retirement numerous times heading into his match with Swerve Strickland at Sunday’s pay-per-view. But, he revealed that he will be a part of this Wednesday’s “AEW Dynamite” show, where he will make an announcement.
“I, honestly, haven’t thought about my future at all, past tonight [laughs]. So, I don’t know what’s going to happen but I’ll be there in Champaign, Illinois on Wednesday, and between now and then, we’ll figure out … and I’m sure I’ll have an announcement then,” said the AEW World Champion.
Danielson was then asked by a journalist if he could potentially end his career at the WrestleDream pay-per-view in October, which will take place at the Tacoma Dome in his home state of Washington. The former WWE star reiterated that he hasn’t planned anything yet past the All In pay-per-view.
“Honestly, like I said, I have no — this was my sole focus … is tonight. I was very happy with how things turned out and then everything going forward I’m gonna have to think about,” revealed Danielson.
He asked his daughter, who was sitting on his lap during the press conference if she wanted him to come home. She replied affirmatively, prompting Danielson to rhetorically question how he could not listen to her. The AEW star had stated earlier this year that he wants to retire to spend time with his children, while he also revealed that his body is broken down, specifically citing that he needs neck surgery.

Mercedes Mone brought in an enforcer in Kamille to stack the odds against Britt Baker during “AEW Dynamite.” The former NWA Women’s World Champion of 812 days was reportedly signed by AEW earlier this year after becoming a free agent and holding talks with both Tony Khan and WWE. And after months of waiting and speculation, she finally debuted during Wednesday’s show as Mone sought to eliminate her would-be challenger.
Before Kamille emerged, Baker had to endure a challenge from a fellow former Women’s World Champion in Hikaru Shida, dispatching her opponent by submission after 10 minutes of action. She hadn’t much time to celebrate as Mone’s music played and she emerged to tease a TBS Championship bout between the pair. Per the theme of the feud thus far, however, she said that wouldn’t happen and Baker was set upon by AEW’s latest debutant.
Britt Baker returned for the first time since September 2023 at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door in June, confronting Mercedes Mone moments after she’d dethroned Stephanie Vaquer to become NJPW Strong Women’s Champion on top of retaining her TBS title.
Kamille’s arrival in AEW had been long in the making, as it had been heavily reported she had signed with the company earlier this year, but no word was mentioned on when she would show up. According to Fightful Select, her appearance on “Dynamite” was kept very quiet in order to maintain the element of surprise, but it was no secret that she had signed with the company. She was reportedly backstage at AEW events as early as January 2024, which ultimately led to contract talks and her eventual signing with the promotion, with graphics and materials being in place for sometime. There were rumors she was set to join WWE as part of the “WWE NXT” roster earlier this year, but those talks never fully progressed.
While newer fans to AEW will see her appearance as a debut, Kamille appeared in AEW in the past when the company had a brief working relationship with the NWA. She appeared on an episode of “Dynamite” in 2021 to confront “Legit” Leyla Hirsch ahead of their NWA World Women’s Championship match at that year’s EmPowerrr pay-per-view, where Kamille retained her title over the Russian star. Despite making an appearance for the company many years ago, she has yet to wrestle a match for AEW, but now that she is aligned with “The CEO,” expect to see more of Kamille on AEW TV going forward.
