Bryan Danielson says ‘odds are’ he will get neck surgery by end of year
Bryan Danielson opens up about the status of his neck.
The AEW star sat down with Jim Ross in an interview that aired during Collision. When talking about the things he had done during his career, he brought up the status of his neck, saying he’d likely need surgery soon.
“And even the way I feel right now, I mean odds are, I’m going to have to get neck surgery before the end of this year. That’s the reality of it,” he said. “And that’s kind of something I have accepted, it’s coming down the pike relatively soon.”
He ended the sit-down by talking about his upcoming match against Swerve Strickland at All In on August 25. He said every time he has failed, he’s learned something about himself. Danielson said that he thinks now he’s the most mentally strong he’s ever been in his career, and that is what will get him through the match at Wembley Stadium.
Danielson has made it a point to say that he will be ending his run as a full-time wrestler this year. He has recently raised the stakes of his upcoming title match, putting his career on the line over Strickland’s AEW World Championship.
