On a recent edition of the “AEW Unrestricted” podcast, Jimmy Jacobs revealed how Bryan Danielson helped him land his job in AEW.
Jacobs signed with AEW earlier in June to work on the creative side of Collision.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On working in AEW: “AEW’s great. It’s a madhouse, I welcome the madness. Last year, I was living in rural Georgia, I bought about seven acres out in the middle of nowhere. I was working for IMPACT Wrestling just a couple weekends a month and I was working on a farm a couple days of week, I was living that life and I was like, ‘Hm, this is a little too mellow for me. I need to get thrown in the blender and whirl around in the chaos’, and apparently that’s where I’m best adapted for, so AEW is my home right now.”
On Bryan Danielson bringing him in: “As for how I got here, Bryan Danielson called me and said, ‘Hey, we’re starting a second show and we need someone in the chaos.’ Well, I’m great in the chaos man. They needed somewhere who was going to be there at all the shows, someone who has the aptitude that I have — and there’s other people that have the aptitude that I have and can do what I do, I’m not particularly special. But also, I have no life, so it was just, can you be on the road whenever?”
