Swerve Strickland continues to make things personal.
Bryan Danielson's career will be on the line at AEW All In, where he will challenge Swerve Strickland for the AEW World Championship. The match could make the conclusion of Danielson's career, so the stakes could not be higher.
In an interview with BBC Radio, Bryan Danielson was asked about his family attending AEW All In.
“Yeah, it’ll be the first time my son’s ever seen me wrestle live. My daughter got to see me wrestle live at WrestleMania 35, but she was two years old, and she doesn’t remember. It’s really exciting. It’s exciting for our family. My wife will be there, my kids will be there. My son, he hopes I win, but he also wants to see me get beat up a little bit. My daughter doesn’t want to see me get beat up, but she hopes I lose so that I can come home and just be a dad [laughs]. The big shift in my daughter came last year when I broke my arm. I wasn’t able to do All In last year because I had broken my arm two months before. That whole process, the first time she’d really seen Daddy hurt, and she did not like that. Shortly after that I came back, I was back for like six weeks, and I had two fractures in my orbital bone and this stuff. She’s like, not only is Daddy away from home, he’s having these really weird, horrific injuries [laughs], so yeah. It’s been difficult for her as a child to see that kind of happen to her dad. But she’s really looking forward to it," Danielson said.
Strickland responded to a tweet that highlighted Danielson's quotes and simply wrote, "I got you Birdie."
