Bryan Danielson is AEW World Champion, something he wasn’t keen on happening for a long time.

Fightful had confirmed the word that Danielson had often and actively pushed against winning championships in AEW. However, ultimately, he gave in, and we’re told that AEW founder Tony Khan was adamant that Danielson become AEW Champion at some point. Specifically, we’re told Khan wanted the closing moment of AEW All In with Danielson celebrating as champion.

Those that we spoke with immediately after the show claimed that the decision for Danielson vs. Swerve to main event All In and for Danielson to main event was made “at least by April.” Swerve vs. Ospreay as many had theorized, hadn’t been planned, with one source noting that “Ospreay will have chances to main event Wembley for years to come.”

There were jokes backstage of a “reverse Montreal screwjob” to ensure that Danielson actually won the match. As we’d reported last night, Danielson’s in-ring mortality so to speak came into focus way more over the last couple of months, as he worked very banged up on the road to AEW All In.
 
Swerve Strickland is sticking with All Elite Wrestling for years to come.

Swerve signed with AEW in March of 2022, with a three-year deal that would take him into March of 2025. However, Swerve had out performed it by the time his title reign rolled around, and negotiations began while he was champion. Swerve then signed his deal on the air with Tony Khan present. As noted, there was still time on his deal, but AEW prioritized getting the contract done to lock him down for years to come.

We’re told the contract is a multi-year contract that will keep him with the company until at least 2028, though we aren’t sure of the exact length of the deal. It was confirmed to Fightful that this is considered one of the biggest deals in the company’s history.

AEW sources had long maintained that they'd been over the moon with Swerve's performances in and out of the ring. He's expected to remain a performer at the top of the card during his deal.

Bruh definitely gonna have multiple title reigns. He's been a good ambassador for AEW outside the ring. He's definitely become the face of the company. I wish Hobbs had gotten that opportunity as well. I mean he has somewhat. But I definitely was expecting him to be world champ 1st. Him or Starks.
