THESE COULD BE THE END OF DAYS FOR BRYAN DANIELSON

In an interview with The Athletic, Tony Khan mentioned that Bryan Danielson's last match may be at All In next year, but he would like Danielson to remain with AEW 'in spirit'. 

"Bryan and I made an agreement three years to the week before AEW All In 2024. The agreement was that Bryan would wrestle (full-time) for three years. Even three years in advance of the expiration of the agreement, I was already clawing for him to stay. He will stay with us in spirit and sometimes, occasionally, make sporadic appearances with us. But the end of the full-time run with us is going to be in 2024."

About doing Dynamite or Collision in the UK: "It’s something I’ve considered, but I’m going to make sure that AEW All In is the only show AEW is going to do in England this year. And that is a very specific statement. Someday, maybe we could add more shows in England, make it a regular event and do more touring there. I am not limiting us to other places outside of England, but I do think that’s a good guarantee for 2024. And if we make stops in other places around Europe or nearby, that could be beneficial and would make sense. Making All In the sole focus of our English operation is really important, and looking at other places around Europe, or even around the UK; the possibilities are interesting. Eventually, I’d like to expand our English touring and do more events — but once we’ve established All In as the premier wrestling tradition."

How he came up with the World's End name: "It’s inspired by London. I was on my way to the Tottenham Hotspur versus Fulham match at Tottenham. I’m looking for a name for the pay-per-view. We passed by the World’s End (pub) and I thought, ‘That’s it'. Like most of the best ideas I’ve had, including AEW, it was made in London."
