A HUGE match for the TNT Title! Champ Christian Cage vs Bryan Danielson! | 10/14/23, AEW Collision

[@RogueBlackOp]

AEW showcasing Christian Cage as a main event talent puts a smile on my face.

[@uyandaomega6525]

Yeah it's great that they are showcasing him.this is why in this match he should've dropped the title to Bryan and go on for the world heaven weight title. MJF VS Christian would be a bigger draw then what's going on right now

[@ericolvera7435]

Christian cage deserves that and more because he is the most underrated wrestler of all time

[@makkobob]

I just wish they didn't have Ricky Starks and Big Bill interfere; seems like TK has a fetish for having practically every big match end because of outside interference. That's my take, what say you?

[@drako121986]

I just wish Christia would actually win titles and keep them on his own power and not have others do it for him. He might have the title but he owes it tot he others in his club house for keeping it.

[@RogueBlackOp]

@@uyandaomega6525True. But MJF is deserving of a longer title reign. And Christian holding the TNT title and doing these matches, makes the TNT title feel like a legitimate championship and not a hot potato

he’s 42…. LA Knight is 40 sooo (i know he’s 49 just wanted to waste your time so youd think of commenting to correct me)

Christian’s prime was in 2005 when he was more over than Cena.

@Vivek l agree with you 2004-2007 were PRIME Christian Years bur yeah he’s hit a second PRIME with AEW

[@Bardic_travels]

That’s why they added him to the group. He can’t take bumps and losses and make the baby face look strong while not losing the heat on Christian and Lushasaurus. It’s what they used to do with the fabulous free birds. They never had Micheal Hayes or terry gordy get beat. But the third guy was their bump taker and could take a pin without killing the heat on the group. Smart booking

The inring IQ of both men is infallible, Christian not letting Bryan finish those kicks 2 times in a row added to how satisfying it was to see Danielson finish them finally and the arm being injured to not be able to finish the submission was a nice touch. Christian finally being able to showcase how talented he truly is while being a fantastic heel
