Jeff Jarrett has high praise for the AEW Dynasty match between Bryan Danielson and Will Ospreay.
All Elite Wrestling‘s Jeff Jarrett discussed AEW Dynasty on the latest episode of his My World Podcast. Regarding the match between Ospreay and Danielson, Jarrett made video game comparisons while praising what the two men were able to do in the ring together.
“Speaking of video games, that’s where I think Bryan has always set himself apart because as the time evolves, basketball evolves; we talked about Caitlin Clark a few weeks ago. What’s Caitlin Clark, why do I think she’s a draw? I think she’s the first female basketball player that you could really draw an analogy, man, this girl looks like a video game player,” Jeff Jarrett said. “She crosses halfcourt and can launch it from anywhere. She can handle the ball.
“Well, we saw that with Steph Curry. We see quarterbacks, we see point guards, we see Aaron Judge, we see the Dodger Ohtani, different athletes, just as the generations, bigger, faster, stronger, but they’re just amazing. We can easily draw the analogy of the video game. I think Daniel Bryan has had the ability, and yes, he can do all kinds of moves and all this, but to me, his timing and storytelling sets him apart.
“Well, then along comes Will Ospreay. I’m not saying he’s just come along because he’s been grinding and doing what he needs to do, and his Japan career speaks for itself, and now he’s stepped into the AEW world. I don’t think athletic-wise, he has a peer. He can do things candidly that other guys can’t. I also think he does the subtleties and the nuances.
“So look, the match has already taken place, but I’m still hyped about AEW, the brand. We presented a professional wrestling match, that is — you can’t see it anywhere else. I’m trying to think to give descriptors to it. But man, it was one for the ages. As a promoter, Conrad, it’s this simple. I can’t wait to see the rematch.”
