Zack Sabre Jr. is gearing up for a showdown with Bryan Danielson at AEW WrestleDream.
The highly-anticipated bout is a dream match for fans, who have been eagerly waiting for these two competitors to face off. This clash was originally scheduled to take place at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2022, but unfortunately, Danielson had to withdraw due to an injury.
After his recent match at NJPW Destruction in Kobe, Zack Sabre Jr. took the opportunity to send a fiery message to his upcoming opponent. Fuelled with passion and confidence, he declared:
WrestleDream against the mighty dragon bollocks. Seattle, October 1. Sleepless in Seattle? No, no, no. Submissions in Seattle.
Sabre Jr. wasted no time in challenging Danielson’s technical prowess, asserting that their match would determine who the best technical wrestler in the world truly is. He questioned Danielson’s ability to execute moves without jeopardising his own joints, claiming that the former cannot match his own skillset.
You reckon you’ve got the tekkies, Bryan? You’ve got the tekkies? You can’t move in a straight line without blowing your joints. Bryan, there’s no way you can beat me because you’ve got no idea what I’m capable. But I know exactly what you’re capable of.
Furthermore, Sabre Jr. expressed his displeasure at Danielson’s recent use of one of his own submissions to defeat Kazuchika Okada. He warned his opponent that attempting the same strategy against him would have severe consequences. With a mix of determination and a touch of animosity, he ominously declared:
You gonna kick my head in? You better, mate. Because if you don’t kick my fu**ing head in, I end your fu**ing career, di**head. You’ve got one week, Bryan.
