Tony Khan Is Confident Bryan Danielson Will Return ‘In A Matter Of Months,’ Unsure About Jamie Hayter
Tony Khan provides an update on Bryan Danielson and Jamie Hayter.
Bryan Danielson suffered a fractured forearm during his match against Kazuchika Okada at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door. He underwent surgery for the injury in July and said he’s on the road to recovery. Jamie Hayter reportedly entered AEW Double or Nothing with an injury, and worked a short match against Toni Storm at the event where she lost the AEW Women’s Championship.
Speaking to Mike Johnson at PWInsider, Tony Khan was asked about the statuses of Danielson and Hayter.
“There is a little more clarity as to when Bryan Danielson will be back from his injury. I’m very excited to get Bryan back. I don’t want to put a timetable because it’s a challenging injury and a tough recovery, but I’m very confident Bryan will be back later this year. I’m still not sure when Jamie Hayter will be cleared. She doesn’t know and we don’t know, but hopefully sooner rather than later. Bryan, I’m very confident you’ll see in a matter of months,” he said.
Fightful Select reported on July 28, “We’re told that not only is Hayter missing All In, that her returning this year is ‘unexpected,’ and that right now, there’s no timetable on a potential return.
Fightful will continue to update fans on the statuses of Danielson and Hayter when more is known.
