Daniel Garcia Is All Elite: Garcia & Tony Khan React

Daniel Garcia

Daniel Garcia is All Elite.

Garcia has been featured prominently since his recent arrival. He’s mixed it up with some of AEW’s top stars including CM Punk, Jon Moxley, and Darby Allin. He’s come up short in each of those matches, but he’s been booked strongly nonetheless.

Tony Khan announced on Tuesday that the 23-year-old mat technician has signed with the company. Garcia has put pen to paper and is officially a full-time member of the roster.

TK says Garcia came in with a great reputation and has built upon the hype since arriving in AEW. “He’s shown no fear, never backing down from anything, even the best in the world,” wrote Khan.

Garcia says he didn’t want to sign with a promotion just because. He was looking for a place to call home, a company that would help him become the best wrestler in the world. “I plan on being a major player in this company for a very long time,” he wrote.

During a recent interview with Fanbyte, Garcia had this to say about his time in AEW thus far:

“I really think that I have the potential right now to be a major player in AEW in the very near future. I feel like they handed me the ball and I just keep running with it.”
