After a tough win over the Mad King which saw his chest turn red, Bryan Danielson will now face the winner of Jon Moxley vs Orange Cassidy. Mox and Freshly Squeezed will square off on the upcoming episode of AEW Dynamite.
The American Dragon has his eyes set on the AEW World Championship but toppling Jon Moxley or Orange Cassidy won't be easy. Assuming Jon Moxley wins, Bryan Danielson will have to prepare himself for a beating at the hands of one of the most dangerous characters in AEW.
Bryan Danielson and Jon Moxley have faced each other countless times in WWE and watching them compete once more on AEW will be a spectacular treat for everyone watching.
