Bryan Danielson is considered one of the greatest in-ring competitors in the world of professional wrestling. As a young man from Aberdeen, Washington, he began his wrestling training immediately after high school graduation and went on to have a highly remarkable and accomplished career.

After becoming a top name on the independent circuit, Danielson was signed by WWE in 2010. After a successful tenure of three years, he became a marquee attraction among fans and won one of the biggest wrestling matches at WrestleMania 30. Moreover, he emerged from his first retirement in 2018 and had a stellar second run at the company as well.

However, in 2021, Danielson left WWE to join rival competitor AEW and found similar success in Tony Khan's company. Following another three years of delivering his best inside and outside the ring, his full-time wrestling career came to an end at the WrestleDream 2024 pay-per-view.

Since then, he has not appeared on their television programming, but he is scheduled to appear in Texas on the same weekend as AEW's biggest show, All In 2025. With a possible appearance also expected by him at their event, here are three directions for Bryan Danielson if he does make it to All In Texas.

WWE failed to hide these secrets - Check them out!


#3. Bryan Danielson joins as a guest commentator for a top match

Bryan Danielson's love for wrestling is unparalleled, as he has repeatedly expressed his affection for the in-ring art. However, The American Dragon recently stated in an interview that even if he wanted to step back in the ring, he could not, as he was not medically cleared, which might be disheartening for his loyal fan base.

Despite the circumstances, Danielson can still be included as a part of AEW All In Texas. It could happen as a special guest commentator for a marquee match. One of those bouts could be the 'Winner Take All' match between Kenny Omega and Kazuchika Okada, which will crown a new AEW Unified Champion at the premier event.

#2. Surprise competitor in a match

While Bryan Danielson is not cleared for in-ring competition at the moment, there is still time between now and All In Texas. There could be a chance, miniscule as it may be, that he gets healthy enough to deliver a few chops inside the squared circle at All In Texas.

The former WWE Champion could be revealed as a surprise entrant in a multi-man match, which would receive a huge ovation. Witnessing Danielson wrestle in some capacity after almost a year would be a thrilling sight to witness at AEW's biggest stage.

#1. Announce his retirement from wrestling once and for all

At AEW All In 2024, Bryan Danielson created one of the most iconic moments by defeating Swerve Strickland to win the AEW World Championship in a classic showdown. However, this year, the same stage could become the place where Danielson delivers some heartbreaking news.

The American Dragon could come out at the Globe Life Field to a loud pop and call time on his illustrious wrestling career for good. Bryan Danielson could leave his ring gear in the ring and take the final bow in front of one of the largest audiences before riding off into the sunset for good.
