Growing up together, well down the street from one another. Dan and Saraya from the moment they met became best friends. Dan was raised by a single mother who loved professional wrestling and passed it down to her son. Saraya's family were wrestling fanatics. And when Dan was about twelve to fourteen years old. He and Saraya started training in the Bevis family's wrestling school and company(WAW). At 16 they went head-to-head in a match. Everyone in her family was amazed by how they blended and worked well with each other. When Saraya was chosen along with Dan by WWE to be part of their developmental program. They practically wrote the book on how to survive or flourish in NXT. When she made her main roster debut in 2014. Dan was so happy for his long-time friend. However, Dan would be released in early 2015. Dan always kept in touch with Saraya as he wrestled for Lucha Underground, TNA, and then NJPW. While he wrestled for TNA(early 2010 to mid-2018). He warned Saraya not to date Alberto Del Rio. And when Alberto came to TNA then Impact. Dan got his pound of flesh as he heard Del Rio had abused and drugged Saraya regularly (Will go into more detail in the book). After a few years in Japan. They would meet in AEW in 2022. Dan would capture the FTW Championship, and TNT Championship, but be passed over repeatedly when it came to the AEW World Heavyweight Championship. Tony Kahn always had an excuse at the ready. But he made the ultimate mistake on the June 15, 2024 edition of AEW Collison...All Rights Reserved
