Bryan Danielson Reveals Similarities Between Tony Khan and Vince McMahon

AEW

Recently Bryan Danielson has weighed in on the ways in which his previous boss Vince McMahon and current boss Tony Khan are similar.

Talking to the Getting Over podcast, Danielson was easily able to draw comparisons between Vince and Tony in one very finite area: their work ethic.

Danielson said:

“The most noticeable thing amongst each of them is the amount of time they spend focusing on this, their work ethic.

“I don’t know how Tony survives, I don’t. Because there doesn’t seem to be enough hours in the day for all the things he’s got, like going on his life.

“He dedicates a crazy amount of time to developing the professional wrestling aspect of his life.

“Ok, is he doing 80 hours a week of AEW? probably, but he’s also doing stuff with the Jags, and he’s also doing stuff with the Fulham soccer.

“I know that he’s spending 80+ hours in AEW stuff, so it’s like where does that time come from?”

“It was the same thing with the Vince in the sense of he’s always working, there’s not a time where he’s not working.

“So even as he’s sitting there and eating his steak or whatever, he’s still thinking about the show, thinking about this different aspect of the business.

“So I would say that is where they are very similar, and I would also say they are very similar in neither of them sleep much.”

AEW WrestleDream is set for Sunday, October 1 2023 from Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena.

Already announced, a series of big matchups including appearances from some of New Japan Pro Wrestling’s biggest stars.

Zack Sabre Jr. will take on Bryan Danielson, FTR defends their AEW Tag Team Championship against Aussie Open, and Eddie Kingston will defend both the ROH World Championship and the NJPW Openweight Championship against Katsuyori Shibata.

Of course, there have rumors abound about a potential meaning of the ‘new era’ comments, including wondering if a surprise debut in Seattle may be in store.

One name fans are most excited about is the prospect of Adam Copeland (formerly known as Edge in WWE) making a surprise appearance as his contract is reportedly set to expire with WWE prior to the event, although there’s no word yet on whether he’s decided to go to AEW, stay with WWE, or something else entirely.
