Khan continued by highlighting Bryan Danielson’s contributions to AEW. He also made it clear that he hoped that Danielson would stay with AEW forever.

“He is so valuable to us. I hope that Bryan will be with AEW forever, I wish he could wrestle with us forever. I know that is not possible, but I hope for as long as he is able to continue backstage and pretty much the rest of his life, I would hope Bryan would stay involved in AEW. We love having him here. He is the captain of the team.”
