St. Louis just hosted the aerial combat of the century, folks! In a showdown that turned AEW Dynasty into the ultimate wrestling arena, Will Ospreay, the “Aerial Assassin”, soared to a victory over Bryan Danielson, the revered “American Dragon”. This was more than a match; it was an epic tale of flight and fight, captivating the crowd to the brink of disbelief!
From the get-go, Danielson, fresh off a brutal Bunkhouse Brawl, tried to keep Ospreay grounded with his world-class technical wrestling prowess. But, folks, you can’t clip the wings of an aerial master for long! The crowd knew they were in for something special, chanting “Holy s***” even before the wrestlers locked up—talk about anticipation!
The match escalated with each high-flying move and technical counter, turning the ring into a battlefield of aerial artistry and wrestling finesse. Ospreay, not one to be grounded, broke free with his signature Oscutter, and a particularly cheeky back elbow that nearly knocked the daylights out of Danielson—and almost the ref too!
Danielson, ever the dragon, fought back with his fiery spirit, escaping Ospreay’s onslaught to lock in the LeBell Lock multiple times. But Ospreay, the escape artist, always found his way to the ropes. The match crescendoed with both warriors battered and bruised in opposite corners. In a final dramatic flourish, Ospreay dodged Danielson’s Busaiku Knee, and delivered the devastating Hidden Blade, claiming the skies and the win.
After the match, while Ospreay’s theme triumphantly played, Danielson lay surrounded by officials, sparking concern and whispering about potential injuries. As the spectacle wrapped up with a tease of the ongoing Young Bucks and FTR feud, St. Louis was left buzzing, wondering if they’d ever witness such an aerial spectacle again.
Could this be the flight of Ospreay’s career or just another chapter in the high-flying legend’s journey? One thing’s for sure, AEW just turned up the heat, and the fans are here for the blaze!
