At AEW All In next month, Bryan Danielson will become just the fifth person in history to achieve a certain rare wrestling record!
The American Dragon is set to headline the Wembley Stadium event next month where he’ll challenge AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland. Danielson earned the opportunity by winning the Owen Hart Foundation 2024 Men’s Tournament, defeating Shingo Takagi, PAC and Adam Page respectively to do so.
On top of the match seemingly marking the end of Danielson’s in-ring career as a full-time performer, it will also allow him to complete an incredibly rare record that only four men have ever achieved in the history of professional wrestling.
Bryan Danielson Will Make Wrestling History At AEW All In
As noted in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Danielson will become the fifth person in history to have competed at all four of the world’s most prestigious professional wrestling venues: Madison Square Garden, Arena Mexico, Wembley Stadium and the Tokyo Dome.
John Tenta (better known as Earthquake in WWE), Chris Jericho, Jon Moxley and Juice Robinson are the only other wrestlers to have achieved this incredibly rare feat. Jericho, Moxley and Robinson all joined Tenta on the small but prestigious list last year when they respectively competed at AEW All In 2023.
In last week’s issue when mentioning John Tenta, Chris Jericho and Jon Moxley as the only wrestlers to have had a match at Madison Square Garden, Wembley Stadium (the hard one since there have only been two shows held at the Stadium), Arena Mexico and the Tokyo Dome, we missed Juice Robinson as the fourth.
If Bryan Danielson, Mark Briscoe, Kazuchika Okada, Jay Lethal, Tomohiro Ishii or Zack Sabre Jr., wrestle at this year’s All In, they will be added to the list.
