The world of professional wrestling witnessed a dream match come to life at AEW Dynasty, as Bryan Danielson and Will Ospreay clashed in a highly anticipated bout.
The encounter lived up to its lofty expectations, with both men delivering a masterclass performance that left fans on the edge of their seats. According to wrestling veteran Bill Apter, their match was nothing short of “perfect.”
Apter, who shared his thoughts on Wrestling’s The Wrestling Time Machine podcast, praised the contrasting in-ring styles of Danielson and Ospreay, which made their matchup a classic.
“It was old school Bryan Danielson against more of a new school only because we haven’t seen him as much. He spent so much time in Japan against Will Ospreay. It was a perfect matchup,” Apter explained.
The match itself was a testament to the skill and athleticism of both competitors. Despite their differing approaches, they seamlessly blended their styles to create an unforgettable experience for the audience.
In the end, it was Ospreay who emerged victorious, but the real winner was the fans, who were treated to an exhibition of exceptional wrestling.
However, the match wasn’t without its concerns. Towards the closing moments, Danielson took a nasty fall on his neck, leaving him in visible pain. The incident sparked worries about his health, especially given his recent history of injuries.
Fortunately, his wife Brie Garcia provided a reassuring update on his condition during a recent episode of The Nikki & Brie Show.
“I think everyone knows, he did fall on his neck. He’s good, [it’s] not like anything where he is out of the ring and getting surgery. He landed on it a certain way. You wrestle hard and unfortunately, he’s going to be 43 on May 22, your body does things,”
Garcia said.
While Danielson’s injury may have cast a shadow over the event, it didn’t detract from the overall excitement and entertainment value of the match. As Apter aptly put it,
“The fans were very hyped for it and those fans were not disappointed whatsoever.”
With performances like these, it’s no wonder why professional wrestling continues to charm audiences worldwide.
As we await Danielson’s full recovery and return to the ring, fans can take comfort in knowing that they’ve witnessed something truly special. The showdown between Bryan Danielson and
