The aftermath of the encounter between Will Ospreay and Bryan Danielson at AEW Dynasty continues to reverberate among fans worldwide.
Touted as a dream match, the bout left attendees at a loss for words, with many asserting it as the pinnacle of wrestling matches on American soil.
Tony Schiavone, who had the privilege of calling the action ringside, shared his admiration for both competitors on his “What Happened When?” podcast.
Beginning with praise for the “American Dragon,” Schiavone lauded Bryan Danielson as not only one of the greatest performers in wrestling history but also as one of his personal favorites.
“We all anticipated a phenomenal match,”
Schiavone remarked, reflecting on Danielson’s exceptional talent and affable nature.
Shifting his focus to Ospreay, Schiavone acknowledged the English wrestler’s meteoric rise in the industry.
While refraining from labeling him as the greatest of all time, Schiavone expressed admiration for Ospreay’s ability to bring joy to audiences in a relatively short period.
“I don’t know anybody that has come in and [in] such a short period of time and captured the excitement of the fans like Will Ospreay has,” Schiavone remarked.
Schiavone also disclosed his advice to Ospreay to ease his pace in the ring, given his youthful vigor and promising future.
However, Ospreay’s response, according to Schiavone, is a testament to his commitment to his style of wrestling, as he insists on maintaining his high-energy approach.
