AEW star Bryan Danielson recently discussed how he wants to get a group together in the company, following in the footsteps of an Inner Circle type of faction.
Speaking to Scott Fishman of TV Insider, Danielson gave his reasoning for the potential group. “If I can get a group together, I’m thinking of a younger talent or two, and that develops into stories within that” Danielson began.
“Look at Sammy Guevara and Chris Jericho. By Sammy joining the Inner Circle, he’s become a bigger star. He then stepped up to the plate and hit home runs. That’s how you build young stars. A guy that comes to mind for me is Daniel Garcia” Danielson continued.
“The one show my wife and I couldn’t stop watching was Game of Thrones. It just made you come back every week. Helping AEW, I want to help that need for viewers to come back every week.
“I think they’ve already created the best wrestling product in the United States that we’ve seen in years. Helping to get more fans watching and give the feeling like it’s must-see television every week. Those are my overarching goals, not only for this year, but the three years I’m here” Danielson concluded.
