At the Access Shorea Center in Kent, Washington, AEW fans witnessed an unexpected turn of events during the Dynamite show on June 25th. After Kyle O’Reilly faced a tough defeat against Kyle Fletcher and was attacked by Lance Archer post-match, Max Caster interrupted by issuing an open challenge. To everyone’s surprise, Brian Danielson made a dramatic entrance. Before the match even began, Adam Cole rushed into the ring and delivered a superkick to Caster. Danielson swiftly took advantage, applying the LeBell Lock and forcing Caster to submit in just seconds.
Following the match, Danielson humorously announced that he had joined the Paragon faction and was now calling himself “Kyle Danielson.” He then asked for his entrance music, “Final Countdown” by Europe, to be played throughout the arena. Although Danielson has been around since October 2024 without officially competing, this marked the second consecutive week he appeared in post-show segments. He also made a surprise appearance at Dynamite: Grand Slam Mexico, where he helped save the legendary Lucha Libre icon Blue Panther in a mysterious moment.
There remains some uncertainty about whether Danielson will wrestle again following his previous match with John Moxley, but fans are hopeful as his presence and role in AEW continue to expand alongside the show’s growth.
Fan Take: This surprise comeback by Brian Danielson is a thrilling development for AEW fans, signaling potential high-stakes matches and fresh storylines. His involvement could elevate the competitiveness and excitement of AEW, reinforcing its reputation for unexpected and compelling wrestling moments.
