Bryan Danielson Returning To The Ring Sooner Than Expected

Dave Meltzer said on Wrestling Observer Radio that Bryan Danielson was always expected for AEW’s WrestleDream event. That being said, his return is still going down weeks sooner than they anticipated.

Bryan Alvarez remarked on the program that Bryan Danielson could tape his arm close to his body. We will have to see if Danielson does anything extra to protect himself from damaging that fractured arm injury.

We will have full coverage of AEW All Out, right here at Ringside News. If anything, this situation wouldn’t have happened if CM Punk wasn’t fired from the company, because Danielson is a replacement for the Second City Savior.
