Strickland\’s release comes mere days ahead of his AEW World Championship match with Bryan Danielson at All In: London 2024. For Strickland, the first male African American AEW World Champion, the match will be his biggest title defense to date with tens of thousands of fans expected to fill Wembley Stadium.

Bryan Danielson has promised to retire if he does not win the gold in London. Danielson\’s contract with AEW expired earlier this month though he has continued to make appearances for the promotion. Last year, Danielson embarked on his final year as a full-time talent in the ring. AEW President Tony Khan has said he hopes for Danielson to remain with AEW for a long time to come.
