Shirleigh, representing Fightful, spoke with a couple of big title contenders ahead of AEW All In.

Bryan Danielson confirmed to Shirleigh that he did pick the shirt he wore on AEW Dynamite intentionally, thinking it was the shirt that he wore for his retirement speech. As it turns out, it only resembled the shirt from then.

His family, including Brie, are in town, and visited Buckingham Palace,

He doesn't "hate" Percy Pigs, but he's disgusted by them. Danielson also says that he doesn't get nervous anymore. Since he was forced to retire, he looks at wrestling as a gift, and doesn't get nervous.

Danielson believes that Swerve, Claudio and Satnam Singh could wrestle a bear. He wants to get Satnam vs. a bear at Wembley.

Mariah May also spoke with Shirleigh and said she quickly remembered why she left the UK, and it's great to be reminded of why she left. She loves living in America, and says that she might be out in her pool with two title belts and no bikini after she wins Sunday.

May said that the entire storyline was pitched to her before she even joined AEW, and that it was a major part of why she came. Tony Khan pitched it to her personally, and laid out that they had a long-term plan. She said that Mickie James was her favorite wrestler, so entering AEW in a similar way as Mickie entered the Trish storyline was very cool. She's very proud of the story and how it all played out.

Mariah said she has three different gears to choose from for Sunday, one from UK, USA and Japan each. She's waiting to see which is most appropriate for the funeral of Toni Storm

She did not like Bryan Danielson being loud in the room while she was talking.
