#2 Daniel Bryan vs. Zack Sabre Jr. (NJPW)
Daniel Bryan is widely considered one of the greatest technical wrestlers of all time. From his time on the independent scene to the top of WWE, the former WWE Champion has showcased his ability to be a submission specialist and put on mat wrestling clinics. A competitor has emerged over the past decade who can match Bryan's technical expertise.
Zack Sabre Jr. has been described as a mat magician. He knows 100 ways to submit his opponent. ZSJ has tied up his opponents in knots and made top talent have no choice but to tap out. He was the first British-born New Japan Cup winner and has wins over Tanahashi, Will Ospreay and Tetsuya Naito in NJPW.
After being the best wrestler on the UK independent scene, he has went on to great success in New Japan Pro Wrestling. In addition to his 2018 New Japan Cup win, Sabre Jr. has won the IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Titles on three occasions with his Dangerous Tekkers tag team partner, Taichi. Daniel Bryan would have his hands full with ZSJ.
This would be two of the greatest technical wrestling geniuses in the history of the business. Chain wrestling, counters and submissions would be amazing and compelling to watch. Daniel Bryan and Zack Sabre Jr. have met in the past, but their experience over the past few years would make for an even better encounter now. This is the match most fans will want to see from Bryan in NJPW.
