Christopher Daniels Praises Young AEW Stars

“Right now, I feel like Kevin Knight is doing great work as the TNT Champion,” Daniels said during a virtual signing with K&S WrestleFest. “I feel like Thekla as the AEW Women’s Champion is an outstanding signing for AEW. She’s doing great work. She’s had some great matches in the last year. I’m a big fan of The Rascalz, all three of them. I think they’ve fit in very well. I’m glad that they’re getting an opportunity to show their best work, whether it’s singles, tags, or six-man matches. I’m a big fan of all three of those guys. They all do awesome stuff.” … “I think [Konosuke] Takeshita is one of the best wrestlers in the world right now,” Daniels added, referring to the brand-new AEW International Champion. “I was very fortunate to get an opportunity to wrestle him a couple times. I’m very happy that I got that opportunity to work with him.” … “I think Action Andretti is outstanding,” Daniels said. “I feel like he had an opportunity on TV when he first came to AEW and since that time, he’s showed up and showed out in Ring of Honor in these last couple of weeks. I think he’s got a bright future ahead of him. Zayda Steel, my protege in the Sky Flight group. Zayda is amazing. I think she’s got a long career ahead of her. I think she’s done a lot of great stuff in the short time that she’s been in Ring of Honor, AEW.” … “From day one, I think they’ve been outstanding athletes, outstanding wrestlers,” Daniels said of Darius and Dante Martin, two of Sky Flight’s other members. “Just a matter of putting it all together, getting opportunities, and breaking through to that next level. But I think Top Flight can do it.”

Backstage Update On Possibility Of Mick Foley Wrestling In AEW

“…sources also revealed that AEW President Tony Khan would be eager to book the match, but it would entirely depend on whether Foley could get himself medically cleared to compete. Foley’s health was what inevitably forced him to retire in 2012 after not being cleared to enter into a feud with Dean Ambrose in WWE, now better known to AEW fans as Jon Moxley. Foley has talked about potentially having some sort of death match with Moxley in the past, but one man who has actively pushed to wrestle Foley if he were to get cleared is the current AEW World Champion MJF, with AEW sources even noting that MJF has wanted to work a program with the WWE Hall of Famer since before he was signed to AEW.”

Bryan Danielson’s AEW status just changed

“Bryan has not officially announced his retirement from this business, but the feeling is that the chances of seeing him in action are really low. It would make no sense to put his health at risk just to chase new goals, having already proven to be one of the best performers of his generation.

Interviewed by Justin Barrasso, Danielson confessed that he is trying in every way to give himself a new chance: “In April of 2025, Adam Copeland sent me to his physical therapist. He said the guy was a miracle worker. This guy worked on me for two days in a row, six hours each day. After the first night, I slept nine hours straight. After the second night, I slept eight hours straight. After that, I was sleeping seven or eight hours almost every night. That’s a game changer for how you feel.”

He continued: “I had these delusions of, ‘Okay, maybe I can get back and do a little bit of wrestling.’ Now I see that they really are delusions, because this traveling is like… this is not a good idea. I hate the r-word because I was forced to retire before. I never consider myself fully retired.”

Meanwhile, All Elite Wrestling has decided to remove his name from the list of active wrestlers within the roster. A signal that certainly does not bode well for the future.”

Von Erich would later have the foot amputated, but returned to the ring with a prosthetic foot and continued his career.  To this day, there is no definitive answer as to whether Von Erich lost the foot at the time of the initial surgery, or had it amputated later (with some even saying it was removed after a failed early comeback attempt did further damage to it).  Von Erich and his family would claim he had his ankle fused to account for the lack of mobility in the foot, and it was not until after his death that his family would admit that he was wrestling without a foot (although in one Las Vegas match, his boot was pulled off accidentally, and several fans saw that he had no foot).
