Good point, however, do we know if TK offers separate types of contracts like that to his wrestlers? I mean, he isn't an EVP.
There are wrestlers who have dual jobs in AEW. Christopher Daniels for example is the head of Talent relations as well as being a in-ring performer. Danielson probably has a similar deal.
On another note it wouldn't make much sense for him to show up at Summerslam when he has a World title match against Swerve at "All In".
