AEW made the right call in putting the belt on Bryan, and this is a new chapter for the company.”
The match was a technical showcase, with both men pushing each other to the absolute limit. Danielson’s ability to adapt and counter Strickland’s speed and agility was a testament to his experience and ring IQ.

Audience reactions were overwhelmingly positive. Patrick Denault commented, “The main event was fantastic with many cool surprises. This is why I watch wrestling.” The consensus among fans was that this match was not only the highlight of the night but a defining moment in AEW history.
Jamie Hayter Returns To AEW | Not Where She Belonged
In the Wrestling Uncensored AEW All In 2024 Post Show, Dave and Ben Simon discussed Jamie Hayter’s return at the event. They both felt her return was underwhelming and not given the attention it deserved, especially considering her status as a former AEW Women’s World Champion.
Dave Simon expressed his disappointment by stating:
“The headlines aren’t going to say Jamie Hayter returns at All In. They’re going to say Bryan Danielson wins the championship… And oh yeah, Jamie Hayter came back after a year plus injury. One of the top stars, former women’s champion, like, she’s kind of an afterthought. And she shouldn’t be because her return is a very big deal. So I think the return was botched.”
Ben Simon added that it felt like a disservice to have her return during the pre-show:
“If Charlotte Flair was coming back to WWE, she wouldn’t show up on the pre-show just to do a little run-in and attack. She’d have a SmackDown segment dedicated to her.”
The hosts also speculated on the future storyline direction, mentioning that they expect a feud between Jamie Hayter and Saraya, possibly leading to a match soon. However, they felt that the build-up to her return was mishandled, and the moment could have been more impactful if it had been saved for a more prominent segment on a main show like Dynamite.
