Most times when a wrestler puts his career on the line it doesn’t end well, and that’s what makes Bryan Danielson versus Swerve Strickland at All In so intriguing.
The Post’s Joseph Staszewski brings you around the world of professional wrestling in his weekly column, the Post Match Angle, which will return Sept. 3.
It feels like this should be a chance to celebrate Danielson — and not say goodbye — in one more moment of triumph that will link arguably the best wrestler of his generation to the AEW world championship forever. Danielson, 43, is in his final year as a full-time wrestler, fulfilling his promise to his daughter Birdie that he’d be done when she turned 7 years old, which she did in May.
Would teasing this to be Danielson’s final match take away from when he is finally ready to call his full-time career quits later this year? It’s the corner AEW has booked itself into — unless Danielson’s health has put it there. They even gave him a beautiful tribute video to Green Day’s “Time of Your Life” last week to further do an excellent job of drumming up all the feelings around him and adding doubt to which way this turns out to get fans further invested.
May continued to differentiate herself from Storm. The shot of May over the fire burning her old Storm outfits was a great visual and she continues to project a coldness when she says: “Don’t worry Toni, we’re both going to die. I just get to write your eulogy.” The Danielson montage struck a perfect tone of celebration and potential farewell with clips from his ROH, AEW and indy days. It it feels like Khan, Mike Mansouri and Co. have continued to step up their game in these areas.
I know NXT has Stephanie Vaquer and Giulia waiting in the wings — likely for the move to CW in October — but it feels NXT hadn’t been putting any of the women not holding titles in a position to break out outside of Lola Vice or Sol Ruca to a degree. That’s why it will be interesting to see who wins the gauntlet eliminator match to face Roxanne Perez for the NXT women’s championship at No Mercy.
Alpha Academy vs. American Made is turning into a never-ending story thanks to the Wyatt Sicks interference. Why does Nikki CrossHere’s hoping we still get Saraya on All In and that her AEW women’s championship match this week isn’t the payoff to the angle that she needs to be on the show. I’m in the group looking for an open challenge that leads to Jamie Hayter’s return
