Eric Bischoff believes Danielson is the solution to Tony Khan’s current issues.
On the AEW Collision prior to AEW All Out, many fans were unsure who would step up to defend Ricky Steamboat against Ricky Starks, with the previous answer obviously being CM Punk. However, Bryan Danielson would answer the call, returning a month ahead of schedule from a broken arm. Danielson would go on to win this match.
Speaking on 83 Weeks, WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff discussed CM Punk getting fired by AEW and believes the best option would be to give Collision to Bryan Danielson.
If I were Tony, I’d give that Collision show to Bryan. Not just be my right-hand man and bounce ideas off. Give it to him. Say, ‘Here you go. Here’s your notepad, here’s your computer, here’s a pen. There’s an office. Call me when you got a show ready,'”
“Then go over it, go through it, and learn and understand and get an idea of a different kind of creative process or creative perspective than Tony currently has. Give that thing to Bryan. Let’s see what he can do. If he does what we all would hope he could do, and prove that there is a better way to approach creative, then bring him into Dynamite and let him have a voice there as well. Maybe not the voice, but a voice. Because it’s the creative that is the opportunity for Tony right now,”
