Jon Moxley recently appeared as a guest on Cincinnati ESPN 1530 for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling.
During the discussion, the AEW International Champion spoke about how it is hard for him to imagine Bryan Danielson no longer wrestling if he’s actually healthy enough to do it.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview where he touches on this topic with his thoughts.
On how it is hard to imagine that Danielson won’t still be wrestling if he’s healthy enough to do it: “I find it hard to imagine a world where a healthy Bryan Danielson stops wrestling at all, but I definitely feel like he’s a hundred percent serious saying he wants to wind it down and not be wrestling as frequently, on the road and being away from his kids every week. I one hundred percent buy that, it’s true. I find it hard to imagine him actively being [for sure] he’s never going to wrestle again, I find that hard to imagine, not saying it couldn’t happen.”
On how he thinks people need to appreciate the fact that Danielson is still putting on amazing performances: “We’ve seen people be here one day, and their careers are over the next. Every time you get to see these greats wrestle — Terry Funk was here a couple weeks ago, now he’s not. Any time you get to see these greats wrestle, you should really stop and pause and think about how fortunate you are to be seeing this. Once Micheal Jordan retired, you can’t turn on the TV and watch Micheal Jordan play basketball anymore. You got a chance to see Bryan Danielson on Dynamite, you know, stop and pause and really enjoy it while it’s here because you’re enjoying something special.”
