Bryan Danielson vs Samoa Joe: FULL MATCH!

[@wrestlevibeswithrivenblade3522]

I say this a lot, but it's truly amazing to me that I can watch matches like this any time I want in 2022. Thank you, technology. No more digging through DVD piles.

This era of RoH was absolutely amazing, and all these guys would go on to solidify their legacies as legends. Samoa Joe here, with this build, and his skills; just a beast and GOAT contender. Nothing needs to be said about Dragon ofc.

[@kingofkings5911]

Bryan Danielson one of the best wrestlers ever step in a ring .

Silent Sycho I don't mean the character buddy

[@kingofkings5911]

Silent Sycho You are probably a hater of him but ok

[@unzerstorbar39]

King of Kings I never liked him or his gimmicks but he's without a doubt one of the best technical wrestlers in history.

[@coolcebolla]

SP Brazy Even then, he was/is/always be one of the hottest babyfaces ever.

[@kingofkings5911]

Phenomenal One I hope too if he can't wrestle anymore for the wwe I hope he returns to Roh to start a feud against Cody

[@CrossfacePanda]

Such an amazing match. Great commentary too, helping to provide context even 13 years after the fact. My main takeaway though is the reminder of how people in the crowd actually cared about the wrestlers here. In the early parts you can hear individual people here and there shout out a quick "come on, Bryan!" or "beat him up, Joe", because they're actually invested in them and have a favourite; they care about who wins and loses. Where as nowadays with most crowds they'd either be dead silent sitting on their hands during those early exchanges, clap to try and get them to quicken up the pace and do "cool spotz", or just start doing chants to entertain themselves. Speaks to a lack of investment in who wins or loses in my eyes, and just wanting "oooh and aaaah moments". Don't know if the wrestlers or the crowds are to blame, though; perhaps both? Of course you still have Japanese fans rooting for their favourite wrestlers by shouting out their names, and screaming out "ganbatte!" when the babyface is taking a beating, but the last time I can remember seeing an American crowd act like that was during the match to crown the first Chikara Grand Champion between Quackenbush & Kingston. I especially remember the lady shouting "we believe in you, Kingston!"; that's some real emotional investment right there. But that was several years ago now, and I feel like all I hear is chanting and singing nowadays, which makes we wonder why people aren't as invested in seeing their guy or gal win anymore. And it's weird because it feels like on the indie level especially people care about the wrestlers outside of the ring more than ever, yet it doesn't seem to translate to inside the ring like it used to (and it's not like we didn't know it was fake back in 2004).

[@amartyasau4175]

CrossfacePanda the current crowd in WWE is filled with old people(no hate) and little Kids with their moms. So we can't expect them to be like ROH crowd. If you see nxt, then you'll clearly see the difference. The crowds in nxt (and small promotions) are filled with young energetic men.

[@anisraho8928]

@@amartyasau4175 even current roh crowds sucks.

[@Kanefan701]

@@amartyasau4175 you bring a good point. NXT crowds are good and very similar to that of ROH fans most are energetic.

[@Kanefan701]

again the commentary in this helped tell the story Joe and Bryan told in the match from start to finish.

[@CRedd9830]

One of the greatest matches of all time, my 2nd favorite match of Joe's legendary title reign. Also Bryan Danielson is the greatest.

[@12345678901011213]

Am I correct in assuming the top 2 are his draws with Punk?

[@CRedd9830]

Jason Hepler Honestly now I like this match more than Joe vs Punk II, but I still like Joe vs Punk III more than this match and it's my favorite Samoa Joe match.

[@ciaranmcintyre3505]

Alot of people in the comments worrying about where the match took place, but it doesn't matter. They could wrestle in a field, and it would still be a classic.

[@CameronWasmund]

Very cool that these guys are going at it again in 2018.

[@OsheoniaRobinson]

It’s 2023🎉 I love it

[@jakeryan2109]

I figured you would enjoy the match because this ended up being one of the last matches that Danielson and Joe would have before Joe would resign with TNA, which would happen in 08 so it was a good match for them since Danielson was one of thier best workers and still is till this day now being signed with AEW, anyways.

[@siddhanthiremath4653]

[@jakeryan2109]

It can be depending on the storylines that are being told, which is mostly why the match you're seeing got over because of the chemistry that they had at the time that got some anticipation from it, anyways.

[@aaronm8143]

The fact that WWE didn’t sign Samoa Joe in 2003 to 2007 is a damn shame. Atleast he’s their now, but he isn’t nearly as healthy. Hopefully he wins a world title before he’s done :/

Anyone beside me curious how that ring is made? It's so bouncy it's a borderline trampoline. Not that I blame them because ROH is the original flippy, high fly promotion so their ring has to be as flexible as possible, but not it has me wondering how they make it.

[@jakeryan9572]

Don't know but who knows, I never heard Steve Corino mention about it or either heard Cornette talk about it if they did then, you would have to probably listen to those interviews or podcasts anyways because of it in the process.
