Bryan Danielson is one of the most popular names in AEW at the moment. He is also the best technical wrestler on the planet, as attested by many of his present and former colleagues.
Ever since he came to AEW, he has not held a championship, and that is definitely one of the most surprising things, considering the stature of a huge star, which he definitely is. For a wrestler of his caliber, competing for so long with a title drought is certainly a bit strange.
However, that could change as Danielson is set to face Christian Cage for his AEW TNT Title on Collision this Saturday. With Cage being one of the most dastardly heels in the entire wrestling business and Danielson being over with the fans, this match could be the one where Danielson could fulfill his championship dream in the Jacksonville-based promotion.

However, there could be a minor hiccup that could prevent him from winning his first AEW title, and that is none other than Tony Khan’s latest recruit, Adam Copeland.
How can Adam Copeland cost Bryan Danielson his title match with Christian Cage?
Adam Copeland was attacked by Christian Cage and his goon on Dynamite this week, and that prompted Bryan Danielson and the Blackpool Combat Club to come out to the rescue.
They came out to help from nowhere as they did not have an inclination with Copeland before that. That can be used by The Rated-R Superstar to turn against Danielson and attack him, saying that he should not have interfered in his business.
As the anticipated match between Copeland and Christian needs a nice build, a feud with Bryan Danielson could be seen as the best way to move forward for the former WWE Hall of Famer.
Since the two men are great in-ring technicians, it will make sure that the fans are treated to some instant classics. The other thing that could help Copeland is being a heel, which will add another dimension to his character.
