The Dragon vs. A Warrior

[lui475]

wow...

[Mrgreatism]

I honestly hope Danielson doesnt go to TNA, and i dont think he really likes TNA, and look at it this way remember when Nigel McGuinness (Desmond Wolfe) debuted, it was awesome, as well as the Angle feud. But what have they done with him, at fuckin Victory Road he jobbed to Jeff Jarrett in a dark match, seriously? a dark match. Atleast WWE was building up Danielson, yeah he jobbed but he was the highlight of Nexus, it was only a matter of time before we would see the real BD. he'll be back

[Cortextree]

Hey wmxx314, atleast we can say we saw Bryan Danielson in the WWE :/

[Salerwhoa]

This is actually better and longer than any of his bouts on NXT and RAW.

[TheRealChadMustang]

daniel bryan is the worst wrestler in wwe, mc is totally right about this guy. zero charisma, zero talent, small, ugly etc

[Mrgreatism]

@TheRealChadMustang lmfao u judge wrestlers on looks?? and he has no talent? the dude puts on 5 star matches just because u see the matches on WWE, which were awesome for 5 min bouts, doesnt mean he has no talent. and judging on ur comment u never seen ROH because he can work a crowd better than most in WWE

[808TROY]

@TheRealChadMustang you seriously ain't a REAL wrestling fan if you can't see talent..Truly you make me sick you disgrace a wrestling fan

[MsJesusgod]

made me think it was danielson vs low ki

[phan303]

?why did u title this vid like that?

[wmxx314]

@phan303 Hey. I'm the original person who posted this video. WWE usually pulls video off YouTube, so that's why I named the video this. Bryan Danielson is "The American Dragon", and Guerrero translates to "warrior", so that's why I put The "Dragon" vs. A "Warrior"

[dstebbin]

Bryan Danielson is the best... oops, I mean, the most overrated... in the world.

[Reaprar]

@dstebbin

I'm doubtful, considering HHH, Cena, Orton, Batista, Edge, Mysterio, Hogan, etc all exist.

[dstebbin]

Is that Danielson?

[wmxx314]

@dstebbin Yep, that's Bryan Danielson!

[dstebbin]

@wmxx314 I thought he was called "Daniel Bryan," not "The Dragon."

I mean, I know his nickname USED to be "American Dragon," but I thought WWE was abandoning that gimmick.

[wmxx314]

@dstebbin His name in Ring of Honor was "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson.

In NXT his name is Daniel Bryan.

Chavo Guerrero is Chavo Guerrero

Guerrero means "Warrior" in Spanish

WWE usually pulls video off YouTube, so to avoid this video being pulled, I named it "The Dragon vs. A Warrior". I know what the names are.  I just named the video that way.

[dstebbin]

@wmxx314 Ok, that last paragraph was all that was necessary. You didn't have to go off that tangent and explain what who's name was, and give me a Spanish lesson.

[wmxx314]

@dstebbin Also, this was a dark match I recorded on Jan 4th when Bret Hart hosted RAW. He came out to his real name at this show. Since then WWE changed it to Daniel Bryan.

[carlDJS]

those who are thinking " argh why the hell is danielson gettin buried by wwe hes the best on nxt " this and that all i have to say is its aprt of his push he will get WHEN! he wins nxt u watched he wouldnt of got brought to the main wwe roster within a month for nothing

[Ksavage2010]

Alot of people copied this video.lol Some of the are claiming it.What is this your original video ?

[wmxx314]

@Ksavage2010 Yo, soooo many people copied this video. I am the original person who recorded this video, and I'm the original person who posted it on YouTube.  For people who don't believe me, I also have 2 videos of when Bret Hart returned that night shot from the same angle. I'm also the first person to post this video on Bryan Danielson's MySpace page as well. Anyone else claiming credit is lying.

[Ksavage2010]

@wmxx314 that pisses me off dude.I hate it when people do shit like that.I assumed you were the original owner because your video was the first one I saw.I know one guy on the video actually put the row seats to make him look like the original owner.I just wanted to make sure dude.

[wmxx314]

@Ksavage2010 Someone even put row seats??? Which user was this? Even if other people claim they were the "original", this was from the Jan 4th RAW Bret Hart hosted, and I posted it 2 days later on Jan 6th to YouTube. I thought about filming myself in the video so you could see me, but this is actually my second YouTube account (my first one was deactivated since WWE and Ring of Honor disapproved of videos I had...that's actually why this video is called "The Dragon vs. A Warrior").

[vivilakers]

@wmxx314 dude cant you do about those people who stole your video?

[aglewi41]

so im confused what the hell is danielsons finishing move.

[AsukuraPunk]

I'm literally gonna jump for joy when I buy next years SDvsRaw, because I just know it'll have Danielson in it!

Can't wait!

[hovikb1]

Brian daniels isn't a rookie on YouTube search Daniel Brienson vs Jaimie noble and it shows them fighting in the wwe

[darkwatcher3453]

I hate catch it's faaaaake !!!

[REVENGEANCE206]

cant get enough of Danielson,what a worker!!

[SNAKEEYESSAM]

why did u put a warrior instead of chavo geurrero?

[wmxx314]

@SNAKEEYESSAM : To decrease the chances of WWE pulling my video, I just put "The Dragon" for Danielson and "A Warrior" for Chavo since Guerrero translates to Warrior.

[dagreatcapri82]

@wmxx314 that was very smart.

[644547024430]

what about "the dragon versus a guy who jobs to midgets"

[drlax15m]

The Miz can teach him the MTV Reality show side of it, he seems to have the rest down pretty well

[minotaur2204]

ha the miz commented on what people were saying about him "mentoring" brian danielson.

i read it.

and obviously the miz doesnt know that there are fans of WRESTLING out there, not looks or gimmicks.

[newagepun]

@minotaur2204 Its Miz being in character. Heck if you correlate it to JoMo's initial reaction to the pairing saying "Pssh, he knows more than you do", you'll know its just a way to hype up one of the most anticipated pairings in NXT. In WWEs polls they lead by a landslide as whom the fans are anticipating.

There be nothing but great things with these two. Also they swapped cowboy's mentor from MVP to William Regal. hmm, subplots?

[jdavidcc7]

that bridging butterfly suplex was just perfect, BEST IN THE F'N WORLD!!!!

[greatarts22]

at the moment he is in that fcw thing ,and lost his first match there after I guess he is done with that they will put him on TV and im HOPING they use him right ,this guy can make some great wrestlemania matches

[wwefan4life56]

He now wrestles under the name Daniel Bryan.

[GhostDistortion]

@wwefan4life56

That's F'N stupid. I knew WWE would want him to change his damn name, despite the fact that he's known world wide as Bryan Danielson. One of the many reasons even American Dragon won't get me to watch that bullshit program they claim is wrestling.

[SplashBoi3000]

The crowd seems so alive during this match, doesn't seem this live during the RAW broadcast. Great match, too bad the CW title ain't around, chavo would be a great champion once more. Can't wait for some AmDrag in WWE television!

[iruler99]

@SplashBoi3000 a crowd is always alive but for some reason on tv they sound so quiet!! i been to smackdown/ecw and raw at staples and were loud but when i watched it on tv it was fucken quiet!! idk why!!

[SplashBoi3000]

Yeah i would suspect it being loud in the arena but it never seems to come across that way on tv, they always seem to have to put some canned pop/heat.

[iruler99]

WWE shouldnt edit the crowd they all sound the same!

[SplashBoi3000]

Yeah, but i guess it's needed since we'd be hearing a dead crowd throughout their broadcast. :P

[GreyM]

then danielson debuts on wwe TV i will mark harder than i have ever marked before

[anotherzibber]

Was this on SS or just dark?

[MrWwefan15]

dark

[vinceedwards2001]

Hispanic Surfboard? Awesome. Best in the World!

[rrko999]

THE BEST WRESTLER IN THE WORLD!!

[BURNINGHAMMER76]

BEST IN THE WORLD

[dashbam]

I'VE GOT TILL 5!

[hilite101]

wow, a good WRESTLING match in WWE?!?!?! well, with Danielson in the match, i couldnt expect less, danielson is a amazing worker. crowd seemed to be into it. chavo is also a amazing worker, hes a guerrero. great match non the less.

[jestermonkey1345]

awesome awesome awseome

[UsernameRogen1978]

ANDERSON!

[XBLKOUT420X]

i had forgotten how good of a wrestler Chavo is, its a shame hes used the way he is.

[tombstone73089]

Yeah, definitely a tad rusty and a touch to tighten up. You can still smell indy on him, but nothing wrong. Still better than most guys on the roster.

[jbails007]

The future of WWE: The American Dragon, Bryan Danielson.

I'd love to see him work a program against Punk or Regal!

[carlDJS]

same add jericho to that list

[inaid4]

WWOWOWOWOWO GOOD MATCH

[karaki123321]

finally a THIS IS WRESTLING chat from te crowd, if they gve this match atleast 7 minutes more it will a classic

[lazybutcrazy1320]

best match on Raw this year. They should have American Dragon vs HBK at WM Student vs. Teacher

[ldorr1]

Sad all these WWE fans dont see the brlliance in this. The crowd seemed hot as there is no escaping Dragon's magic live. He just showed more intricate wrestling moves thne I saw at the whole house show in Boston last Friday!!

[carlDJS]

ANYone agree bryan danielson would make a great IC champion he is the type of guy that need to bring the prestige back in to that title as that is one and was one of the most prestiges titles in WWE hopefully he would win the title as hes a great global superstar

[XshinsekaiX]

in that case, he should win the US title, which has been very unused these days

[carlDJS]

@XshinsekaiX true true

[dillkidisback]

Can't wait for Danielson to come to Smackdown hopefully.

[carlDJS]

i love to see bryan be teamed up with CM punk imagine that hey wel anyways h would do great on either brand hopefully he will go ecw or raw for me

[axelrockstar15]

ooo ya kiero ver a danielson peleando con jericho ,shawn ,swagger , bourne y edge

[LibertyPrimeV1]

not really impressed..at all.

[Pistoldtown]

Most wrestling fans don't really understand wrestling, it's ok.

[LibertyPrimeV1]

Don't get me wrong. I'm a big fan of Danielson and i prefer watching ROH out of all american companies. But this match just did not impress me.

[Pistoldtown]

It's all about context. Compared to an average Danielson in ROH match it blows, but for a 6 minute WWE dark match, it's fantastic.

[CrazyChamp13]

Dream Match: Jericho vs. Danielson

[violationoftheart]

1 star match

[hartelyhare]

Danielson won over the crowd in record time. Backstage HAD to notice that!

[shotgunjobber]

I marked my tits of all the way through that. So happy for Dragon. The "I have 'til 5" shout was epic.

The European Uppercut at 3:25 and the Butterfly Suplex at 5:05 were snappy as hell.

That's the first time I've seen him wrestle a fast paced cruiser style match. He usually has the time to have wars of attrition. It was non-stop awesomeness.

[MrPavlyuchenko]

Hm Dragon with a new finisher looked like it had a lot of impact^^ what's it called?

looked to me like some sort of knee kick, like KENTA's Busaiku Knee Kick

[Pistoldtown]

He's been doing that kick for the past few years.

[MrPavlyuchenko]

Yes, I know that, but first of all it wasn't his finisher back then, and secondly I still don't know the name.

perhaps you can help me out ;)

[Pistoldtown]

Thunder Leg Lariat.

[MrPavlyuchenko]

thanks for that info

btw. it was pretty clear that WWE would give him a new finisher. hope that dragon is allowed to keep most of his arsenal

[jhniscol]

its a running roundhouse kick

[fballJets]

the guy can go far in WWE hes already got a huge following, you dont see crowd reactions like that in a dark match very often at all, people know who he is already and WWE knows that. Cant wait to see him debut on TV

[goodtimes8171]

There is really only one response to this video:

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC­KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK YEAH!

Seriously, what a fantastic match, even with the slow slow start and a couple of flubs. And am I the only one who feels a bit of chills when I hear "Let's Go Dragon" chants on WWE TV? The only thing missing was a "best in world" chant, which will happen.

This must be how all those Punk marks felt when Punk starting getting his push a couple of years back.

[hilite101]

@goodtimes8171 i myself is a danielson mark, the other chant that was missing, was " your gonna get your fucking head kicked in"

[goodtimes8171]

It's true. That would have been pretty awesome to hear them chanting the head-kicked-in chant.

You know, watching this again reminds me how happy I am to see Chavo get to do his thing. He's really a great worker who's been relegated to comedy matches and lame feuds for a long time.

If anyone finds/uploads the Dragon/Kaval match, it'll be too too sweet for words.

[UltimoBlaze1]

the best match chavo had in years, dragon's the king!

[FlikTheBlueLightning]

I would say since his match with Evan Bourne/Matt Sydal in October 2008

[Tomccrash]

wow he has a nice style, i hope WWE will use him wisely and don't let his talent go under ...

what's his WWE name now?

[PantheonLincoln]

Right now, he's still Bryan Danielson, he's been advertised for FCW under that name.

Think about this for a moment, FCW could potentially see BRYAN DANIELSON VS LOW KI! Low Ki's still there as "Kaval", so that could be good to see.

[RKOxxKane]

@PantheonLincoln That happened on FCW yesterday!

[XshinsekaiX]

bryan danielson's debut match on FCW was against KAVAL... or at least that's what i read on the internet

[hilite101]

@XshinsekaiX it was, and i heard they tore down the roof

[carlDJS]

yh kaval is supposed to be called to the smackdown brand to feud with rey mysterio under a mask

[PantheonLincoln]

Yeah, there's been talk of bringing Kaval/Low-Ki up to Smackdown and having him feud with Rey Mysterio. I'd pay to see that.

[hilite101]

@PantheonLincoln i second that, i just hope rey doesnt complain to wwe about low ki being to stiff, because he did complain about losing the strap to ziggler

[FlikTheBlueLightning]

CM Punk gave him a stiff GTS once and after that he said "thanks for the match" to him. I'm sure he doesn't mind.

[MrWwefan15]

of cpurse he doesn't mind in mexico where he started they stiff wrestle for fun like when u mess around wit ur friends

[jasonfnsaint]

Awesome match. I love that Dragon is already over with the crowd.

[Paisnaiter]

Poor Chavo.

Most guys who step into the ring with Dragon get warned before the match they're gonnal get their fucking head kicked in.

WWE fans are so discourteous. They should have warned him.

[GioStGiovanni]

@Paisnaiter hahahaha. i miss that chant.

[phchartrand]

Who cares about the titantron or his music, it's a fucking dark match.

[DXTRUERULES]

GOOD MATCH

[EBAIGTS]

i hope he feuds or teams with cm punk but if they team up they will eventually split up nd feud

[JBishop0074]

very entertaining match

[Halfort57]

lol no titantron for Brian Danielson.

[OompaLoompa895]

OMG Yes! Thanks for the video! I go to every PWG show and watch him every month and watch ROH and now I can't wait to watch him every week in the WWE!

BTW, what was his entrance song, it wasn't "It's the Final Countdown"...

[WhoblehwahV2]

Kinda short, but it was ok. The crowd seemed to love everything Danielson did. I really hope he debuts on Smackdown though. If he goes to RAW he'll end up like Jack Swagger, Evan Bourne, and Chavo Guerrero. I really would hate for that to happen.

[Teshinator]

It took him that long to beat Chavo? I've seen Hornswoggle do it quicker

[davidroberts612]

That's because that was scripted. They are putting on a good show here.

[Teshinator]

I know, I was just being a dick.

[TheLordVidso]

Best in the world

[theinevitable24]

lets go dragon! gotta love that it was in dayton

[nightwish192]

and Chavo deserves a push

fuckin little bastard

[nightwish192]

wow dragon got a very good reaction.

can't wait for him to debut, i hope he doesn't stay to mutch in FCW

[Ksavage2010]

I doubt he will since it was his idea to go to FCW because he felt rusty.

[ManiBahamutV2]

this crowd know who is danielson?????

[theinevitable24]

hes done a lot of shows in that town so yes they do

[thebigmarvinski]

was a smark heavy crowd on this weeks raw

[Wafflesaurus]

Wow! This match right here is better than any match I've seen on Raw in the past month.

[axlslashroseguns]

@Wafflesaurus Shame it isn't on Raw, it's on Superstars

[Wafflesaurus]

@axlslashroseguns

It's still better than any match I've seen on Raw.

[statixpron]

no wonder why he's going to fcw. this guy is actually good at wrestling.

[Salerwhoa]

He requested a little time there himself, since he felt a little rusty.

[statixpron]

he's gonna come out worse than he went in

[newagepun]

I doubt it. He's probably doing it to rework with the crowd again and find a way to connect instantly. If he and Regal have a match in FCW, fuck I gotta watch that.

[statixpron]

They'll probably have one when he goes to ECW. I'll be shocked if he goes anywhere else. He'd be used on ECW better anyway.

[uufc05]

Im so pissed I missed this match. we were still trying to get to our parking spot. Fuck you Nutter Center.

[assfax]

Inazuma Leg Lariat?

[twiztidlestat]

That idiot crowd had NO idea who they just saw. They will in due time

[danshot360]

so?

[LubricuntShawn]

@twiztidlestat: Are you deaf? If you listen, you can clearly hear them chanting "Let's go Dragon" and they "WHOOOOA!" during his Surfboard on Chavo. Of course they know who he is.

[CallMeDjm]

Actually, there were some very audible "Let's go Dragon" chants, and I heard "He has till 5" as well.

[seancarletonzero]

No supposedly faceless jobber gets this kind of reaction in a dark match.

[Azurani]

Danielson > Nigel

Fact.

[deanyrulez]

no.

[shotgunjobber]

Controversial.

[ciaranod]

I marked for the "Let's go Dragon" chants

[JonSpam07]

this is wrestling.

[shotgunjobber]

If only the fans had the balls to chant that.

[malbecks316]

Hornswoggle sure got tall.

[K4BOSH]

I cant wait for the WWE Universe to chant "He has til FIVE!!!!"

[DarkJokerSaint]

wwe univers is not roh or indies fans

they will cheer him but thats it

[SoulOfRuby]

I disagree. He can make it so that the fans start saying that. Just like Flair got everyone to say "Woo" when he chopped or Stone Cold w/ the "What?". This doesn't necessarily pertain to the indies.

[K4BOSH]

Yea, if the Miz can have the fans chant "Awful!!!" when he says his thing, if the fans go "Buh! Buh! Buh!" with Kofi, then AmDrag can have the fans chant "He has till FIVE!" also.

[camotaker]

Best In The World The American Dragon "You're Gonna Get Your Fuck!ng Head Kicked In"

[camotaker]

rajeshmr6 i know that cena wrestle with danielson in Velocity 6 years ago, also CM Punk battle Val Venis at Raw, and many former ROH wrestler got "try outs" with WWE like, Alex Shelly, Samoa Joe, AJ Styles, and many more.

The only thing that i try to say is that Danielson canot use all his abillities with bad wrestlers like cena, and yes, the match 6 year ago was not bad, but danielson could do better than that, but i can say the same thing about Cena... Sorry.

[newagepun]

@camotaker in WWE standards, they'd eat that match up especially if it was on smackdown in the midcard. Hell he made Cena look like he can wrestle too!

This is the oddest thing but Danielson is honestly one of the most adaptable workers in the indies with little to no head dropping offense. I honestly think he can make it if given the opportunity to run the ball like they did to CM Punk.

[rajeshmr06]

Danielson felt that he was rusty himself...not WWE ... he himself asked WWE to send him to development for practice

[DarkJokerSaint]

hey dumbshit Im a freaking pro wrestler, and I compete in olympic style wrestling. and even I have to say that only wrestling abilities dont care you to succes, you need a gimmick that fits you. Still im talking to a guy that jacks off to chikara´s larry sweeny

[realGMblueNorange]

he said it, not the wwe

just another excuse to bash the wwe

[rajeshmr06]

Exactly. They don't even read the reports and try to blindly bash WWE. If Danielson himself feels that he is rusty, then it means he is.

[kob456]

Bryan Danielson is not rusty whatsoever. He's just playing a political game that's all.

[newagepun]

honestly I think its better for Danielson in the long run. He's not going to find a way to fit in either program since all attention is the build up to Wrestemania. So why not be at a full 100%, connect with the FCW crowd so he has something when he's called back up to any show.

[SoulOfRuby]

He IS alittle rusty. If you watch closely, you'll notice he almost botched the kip-up. Also, Chavo had to go for his hand twice when he tried to Irish Whip him. Then there was the turnbuckle flip that Danielson almost botched aswell. Danielson's moves were rather sloppy and weren't executed w/ perfection.

[jamoalex]

I completely agree with you. He also almost lost his balance on two occasion as well but that is very little to argue about considering he hasn't wrestle for nearly four months. I don't agree with him wanting to go to development because of this performance but hopefully he can come on the main roster after Wrestlemania.

[wa2k99]

Best in the world!

[camotaker]

This match was good, but i'm still afraid for dragon, Danielson can work with chavo because both men are great wrestler (Danielson the best in the world) but when Bryan wrestle with "cena" or other overrated trashes... i don't know... i prefeer to watch the american dragon in ROH, PWG or DGUSA.

[rajeshmr06]

Danielson has already wrestled with Cena, 6 years ago. And, that was not a bad match at all. A short match but both of them gave their best.

[Misterioso]

@rajeshmr06 All of the workers WWE sits on have worked Jakked matches, go back and look at Low Ki vs. Essa Rios or Bryan Danielson vs. Billy Kidman etc.

Even Samoa Joe had a Jakked match, WWE doesn't want true talent they want cookie cutter formula in ring & promo guys.

[rajeshmr06]

"WE doesn't want true talent they want cookie cutter formula in ring & promo guys."

That's what brings in ratings, which means thats what most of the people want too. Very very few people want someone who can only wrestle but uninteresting in promo.

[rajeshmr06]

Even TNA has realised that they won't get ratings if they get only wrestling in a show. Which explains the numerous backstage segments even in TNA. It is as simple as that. If they need people watching the show, they need to make it entertaining, and not just pure wrestling. Those crying against backstage and interesting segments are minority and will be rightly ignored.

[Misterioso]

How can someone who doesn't watch WWE or TNA programming be rightly ignored?

I would never waste my time watching U.S national promotions; I watch ROH, Chikara, NJPW, AJPW, NOAH, Michinoku Pro, and AAA & CMLL.

However I do enjoy reading about the complete joke that is American Pro-Wrestling; when I read Danielson signed I knew it would be the worst mistake of his career.

[rajeshmr06]

Those promotions, cannot for the life of it, compete with WWE and TNA for mainstream wrestling fans. They remain in their little world because they don't know how to attract mainstream fans. That is why they are ignored, because they don't drive the industry and are and will remain a minority.

[Misterioso]

They survive strictly on the basis of niche demographics who want to see quality Pro-Wrestling and not soap operas.

[rajeshmr06]

Barely survive, actually. The niche demographic is not that big anyway. Majority wrestling fans want entertainment, than wrestling.

[DarkJokerSaint]

yes and no

if that was right ROH on HDNet will be getting the same numbers as Raw

[JediahX]

Oh yes, making money, getting better health care and opening up a whole new for himself and for more fans to see him perform is SUCH a mistake.

[Spunkalish]

Lol, WWE doesn't have health care. Their wrestlers are considered independent contractors, which is a load of horse shit in my opinion.

[DarkJokerSaint]

you my friend are a mark

I watch all of that and WWE & TNA

AAA has worst storylines

CMLL has no storylines

Chikara is a big soapopera

All the japanese promotions are strickly wrestlign, but they still kind of unknown.

If you dont watch WWE why did you post it here?
