During Sunday night’s AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door II pay-per-view event, Bryan Danielson defeated Kazuchika Okada in an astounding main event slugfest.
The arena buzzed with wild “Holy Sh*t” chants before the match even kicked off. Right off the bell, both men showed their technical prowess much to the delight of fans.
Okada nailed Danielson with a tombstone on the ramp. Danielson appeared to be convulsing which caused the referee to call for medical assistance. However, it was simply a ruse from the Blackpool Combat Club member.
The finish saw Danielson duck a Rainmaker and apply the Lebell Lock, forcing Okada to submit in no time.
