Here are a few AEW news items for June 28th 2024 via the Wrestling Observer Newsletter and Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com…

* In regards to Bryan Danielson’s creative direction, Meltzer noted that he “is expected to have a major turnaround as he closes in on retirement with the idea of regrouping from the losses earlier in the year.” Bryan is one of the participants in the 2024 Owen Hart memorial tournament.

* Adam Copeland is currently recovering from a fractured tibia that he suffered at the 2024 Double or Nothing PPV event. Meltzer noted that Copeland had five screws and a plate put in his broken left ankle following surgery.

* It was recently reported that Penta El Zero Miedo’s contract with AEW is scheduled to expire between August and September 2024. Penta is reportedly open to leaving AEW and will go where he can get the best financial offer. According to Meltzer, Penta believes “this is probably his last big money deal (he’s 39) and that he has a lot of people counting on him so he has to look at everything.”
