When else would it happen? Suzuki won't be in America forever, and at his age it's an open question if he'll be at this level whenever Danielson gets around to him in New Japan. Some people without brain cells have already tried to call this a hot shot on other social media sites - but it simply isn't in any way that matters. With the way both AEW and New Japan book, there's no loss to just doing this match right now. Also I think a lot of the hot shot booking arguments are still largely based on how wrestling was before streaming really took over. The dynamics of how people watch stuff are so much different than they were like 10-12 years ago when TNA were neglecting every aspect of marketing and promotion. It’s also one of the matches you don’t really need to tell much of a story for compared to even Omega. “Bryan wants to take on the best, Suzuki is in the area and he wants to fight Bryan” Boom, the end.

Yeah, I wouldn't consider this hotshot booking. It's an exhibition match and whether it was done on Friday or in six months time, it's only ever going to be that. AEW isn't throwing away a PPV main event or an interesting angle. It was never going to be more than two dudes beating the hell out of each other.

I'm genuinely stunned. This is one of those rare moments where I don't give a shit if it's good for business or not to throw this out on YouTube on 3 days notice, I'm pumped this is happening. When else would it happen? Suzuki won't be in America forever, and at his age it's an open question if he'll be at this level whenever Danielson gets around to him in New Japan. Some people without brain cells have already tried to call this a hot shot on other social media sites - but it simply isn't in any way that matters. With the way both AEW and New Japan book, there's no loss to just doing this match right now. I'm assuming he's at least here another month and you could have built to it. To be clear, I'm *not* complaining. But they could have built it more. I'm saying it's a good thing they can give away matches like this one.

I don’t care why it’s happening. I’m just pumped that we get to see it.

I can just imagine Bryan suggesting this to Tony & he's like "great idea, Bryan".
Danielson must be loving this, he's getting to have one of his likely New Japan dream matches & he doesn't even need to go to Japan for it.

Also, Fish vs Moriarty is a sleeper match as well, damn.

Shoutout to Lee Moriarty. He's definitely taking every chance he gets and knocking it out of the park each time.

Holy. F***ing. Shit.
Well I couldn't watch Smackdown this week anyway due to it being on FS1. I know what I'm f***ing watching now. Like Danielson vs Suzuki... that's it. That's all you have to say.
That is one hundred percent gonna help move tickets for Rampage as well. That's gonna sell the show for people if they haven't decided to buy yet.

Im very curious if these are the only two matches happening within that hour. Danielson/Suzuki strikes me as a match that will and should go 20 minutes. Idk if Fish vs Lee would. But I'm wondering if they'll sprinkle another match or two in there with the live aspect. Or let these two matches just absolutely turn a clinic... which again I expect Danielson/Suzuki to do anyway.

That should be a great match to catch on YouTube. Will they be posting it after the live airing?

That should be a great match to catch on YouTube. Will they be posting it after the live airing? All Buy-In's or live Youtube Events have always stayed on their Youtube Page after airing. I assume this would be no different. That's a match you will presumably be able to show people who want to get into AEW.

Tune in to see a dragon die a horrible death.
In all seriousness, that’s been a dream match of mine forever. It’s going to be awesome. Especially since it’s probably Suzuki’s last in his U.S. excursion.

I’d put Bryan vs Suzuki on Rampage over either Punks or Jerichos match but will defo seek it out on Saturday
