Bryan Danielson Thinks AEW Contract Will Be His Last Deal In Wrestling

Danielson signed with AEW in September

Bryan Danielson has admitted he is anticipating his contract with All Elite Wrestling being his final contract. 

Danielson signed with AEW at the start of September, making his surprise debut for the promotion at All Out. As the American Dragon prepares for his first pay-per-view match in the company, against Miro this weekend at Full Gear, the former WWE Champion has divulged he signed with AEW for three years.

When the deal is done, Danielson will be 43-years-old, and feels like that would be the right time to step away from being a full-time wrestler, albeit admitting it would be a difficult decision.

Speaking on Ariel Helwani's MMA Hour, when asked if this deal could be his last contract in wrestling, Danielson replied: "I don't know, I think so. When I think about it in my head, right now, I feel invincible. My body feels the best it's ever felt since I was in my 20s.

"When I signed this deal, [Brie Bella] and I were thinking it would be my last contract. What I'm kind of hoping is that I'm having so much fun and feeling so good, that by the end of the three years that I've worked so and had so many intense matches that my body doesn't feel great. Like, repairable, if I stopped wrestling for six months I'll feel as good as new, but I'll feel like, 'Okay, now I'm kind of done being a full time wrestler.'

"The hard part would be thinking, 'Man, I still feel good,' and I want to be a full-time wrestler, but because of age or wanting to be there for my kids, stepping away from being a full-time wrestler then would be a lot more difficult."
