Zack Sabre Jr. wants Bryan Danielson rematch in England or Japan

Zack Sabre Jr. wants another shot at Bryan Danielson. 

Danielson defeated ZSJ in their long-awaited dream match on Sunday at AEW WrestleDream. Following the match, AEW posted a video of ZSJ challenging Danielson to a rematch in either Japan or England. 

“We were supposed to settle something, weren’t we? Who really is the best technical wrestler, not in the world right now, but probably of all bloody time? But knocking me out, Bryan, that’s a scoundrel move from brittle Bryan,” ZSJ said. “I felt your bones disintegrating in my hands, Bryan. So, I want my rematch because this proved nothing. And we’re going to do the rematch in my home turf England or my adopted home turf of Japan. Because I did you the solid, mate, didn’t I? Did you the proper solid of coming to Seattle. Submissions in Seattle but you didn’t beat me by submission, you chickened out.”

“Well Bryan, we’ll find out in the rematch who the best technical wrestler in the world is and I’ll put you into retirement for good, dickhead.”  

AEW also posted a video of Danielson talking about his match at WrestleDream. He also feels as though the two wrestlers have unfinished business. 

“I’m also a little bit upset if I’m going to be honest because I came into this match thinking by the end of this match we would find out definitively who the best technical wrestler in the world was,” Danielson said. “And we leave that match and somehow, even though I won, I don’t feel like I’m the best technical wrestler in the world because I can barely move my hand. And for me to beat Zack Sabre Jr, I had to knock him the f–k out.” 

“So, now I’m starting to think that maybe he is the best technical wrestler in the world, maybe he is. But here’s the thing, I offered to shake his hand at the end of that match and he refused. So maybe, and we don’t know for sure, maybe he is a better technical wrestler than me but here’s what I know for damn sure, he can’t strike with me, he can’t stand with me, he doesn’t have the heart that I have, he doesn’t have the legs that I have, he doesn’t have the soul that I have to go out there and compete.” 

Our own Dave Meltzer also commented on the match between Danielson and ZSJ at AEW WrestleDream, writing, “Danielson won with two busaiku knees. This will go down as a legendary match. They kept comparing it to Inoki vs. Robinson and it is this generation’s version. I hope we see this again a few more times.”
