AEW star Bryan Danielson has seemingly retired from in-ring competition. He is one of the most prominent figures in the company, and Tony Khan has immense faith in him. He recently became a full-time commentator on Dynamite, and it looks like he's taking his new job quite seriously.
Many are glad to see The American Dragon trying new things out. ECW legend and former WWE SmackDown commentator Taz is happy to see the former AEW World Champion join him at the commentary desk with veterans like Tony Schiavone and Excalibur.
The 57-year-old is one of the best in the business right now, and in a recent interview with Going Ringside, he said that it would take some time for the commentators to build chemistry with the WrestleMania 30 main-eventer.
"I think it's cool. I like Bryan, I respect Bryan, and [I] get along great with him. He's got great insight. Some people say, 'Well, wait a minute, Taz is an analyst, so now we have another analyst in Bryan Danielson?' It's okay to have two analysts because we have different perspectives on what you're seeing," he said.

The WWE veteran continued:
"So I'm happy that Danielson's part of the announce team with us, with Excalibur and myself, and I think it's cool. We've just gotta build some chemistry together… We just need a little time to get our sea legs as a unit under us a little bit. And we will. It'll take a couple of weeks." [H/T: WrestlePurists on X]
Bryan Danielson on if WWE and AEW could collaborate someday
In a recent appearance on UNSCRIPTED by Josh Mansour, Bryan Danielson was asked if there is a possibility of WWE and AEW working together someday.
The American Dragon said that World Wrestling Entertainment currently wants to put the Tony Khan-led company out of business. However, he added that nothing is impossible in the world of professional wrestling.
"Where we’re at right now, it seems more like WWE is trying to put us out of business rather than wanting to go into business. The landscape of wrestling has changed so much in the last six or seven years that I would never say never," he said.
Hopefully, Bryan Danielson will return to in-ring competition someday and become the AEW World Champion again.
