Bryan Danielson Shares One Major Concern for WWE as AEW Continues to Boom

Bryan Danielson was the latest superstar to make the switch from WWE to AEW. Bryan recently made his in-ring AEW debut against Kenny Omega at AEW Dynamite Grand Slam. It was a great match but had to end in a time-limit draw.

Earlier in August, we saw CM Punk return to pro wrestling as he made his AEW debut.

In an interview with Brandon F. Walker on Rasslin’, Bryan stated that he feels WWE has not been able to create new stars for several years. Bryan said (h/t: Fightful), “One of the things that’s been very difficult in WWE the last several years has been creating new stars.”

Bryan Danielson talks about AEW’s young talents

During the interview with Brandon F. Walker on Rasslin’, Bryan claimed that he feels AEW has the ability to promote young talents and create new stars as they focus on showcasing young talents with experienced and established wrestlers like CM Punk and many more.

Danielson said, “AEW came in with a handful of stars that had been known nationwide. Someone did not really know nationwide the Young Bucks and Kenny Omega. They had a lot of fans, but they hadn’t really been on national TV. You had Jericho, Moxley, and a handful guys maybe people knew.”

“It’s the ability to go out there and create these new stars and create people they are excited about. I have no doubts about AEW’s future as far as that’s concerned. You can just see it. There are all these guys that are young and have so much talent. They’re just going to thrive.”

Danielson further added that learning goes both ways. He feels that not only the young talents will get to learn from him, he will also get to learn from them.

He added, “One of the things that really excites me is the learning goes both ways. They will learn from me and CM Punk, but I will also learn from them because as someone who is 40 years old and has been in wrestling for 21 years, I have certain ways of thinking.”

With Danielson as the latest addition to AEW’s roster, Tony Khan’s AEW will now impose a greater challenge to WWE.
