Christopher Daniels just wants to keep contributing to wrestling in a meaningful way.

Daniels was this week’s guest on AEW Unrestricted and talked about transitioning out of his role as a full-time wrestler. Daniels, who is still part of SCU and the head of AEW Talent Relations, says he thinks it’s come to the point that he won’t be wrestling high profile matches anymore, but he can still find ways to be a valuable resource.

“I don’t necessarily feel like there’s anything that I want to do other than contribute. I don’t think that there’s a burning hunger in the wrestling world to see me necessarily wrestle anybody. I don’t know if there’s anybody going, ‘I wish Christopher Daniels would wrestle Jon Moxley on Dynamite.’ But I mean, I feel like with the level of talent that we’ve got in AEW, you know, there are some fans of mine that would love to see me on Dynamite. But the honest truth is, the time to feature me as an act, I feel, it’s not long gone,” Daniels said, “but it’s sort of passed. And I’m okay with that. I feel like my best efforts now are to be used wrestling younger guys and sort of helping them get better if I can. If that happens on Dynamite, great. But if it happens on Dark, also great.”

Daniels also talked about the first year of AEW Dynamite and said that they can improve in some areas, but overall it was a job well done.

“Nothing we do is perfect; there’s always room for improvement. But I feel like in terms of introducing a largely unknown cast of wrestlers to the wrestling audience, I feel like we’ve done a really good job.”

Daniels also talked about how he’s known for the “Best Moonsault Ever” and how the move has become synonymous with him over the years.

“I think when people see the BME, I think they’ll think of me no matter what, in the same way that I think if people see a Frog Splash they might think of Eddie Guerrero first.”
