Bryan Danielson drops rare tweet ahead of special Dynamite, AEW star to be "fined an undisclosed amount"

AEW is gearing up for another special edition of Dynamite tonight. Bryan Danielson is set for a major tag team match, just days before one of his biggest singles matches ever. After a friendly taunt from an All Elite colleague, Danielson is firing back with a few important questions, and a curious threat.

The American Dragon will headline tonight's Title Tuesday Dynamite, teaming with Wheeler Yuta to face PAC and Claudio Castagnoli, who hold the World Trios Championship with Danielson's partner. The Match of Champions comes less than one week before Danielson defends the World Championship against Jon Moxley at WrestleDream.

Tony Khan encouraged fans to do something outside of their routine as a reminder of tonight's special Dynamite. Lee Moriarty, clearly in an exuberant mood this week, responded with an edited photo of the former Daniel Bryan wearing a New York Yankees cap, billing him as "Deada*s" Bryan Danielson. The seven-letter nickname is a slang term made popular by some residents of New York City.

Danielson responded with a reminder for Title Tuesday, concerns over the "Deada*s" term, and an announcement on a planned fine for The Apex Of Combat, for putting him in a Yankees hat. Danielson was a huge baseball fan growing up. The Washington native was a big fan of MLB's Seattle Mariners, who are rivals to the Yankees.

"3 things: 1. YES, remember #AEWDynamite is tonight! #TitleTuesday!!! @AEW 2. What does 'Dead*ss' mean? It's a conjunction that makes little sense 3. Lee will be fined an undisclosed amount for putting me in a Yankees hat," Bryan Danielson wrote.

Moriarty then fired back at Danielson, jokingly jabbing him with a Nigel McGuinness mention. Lee included a photo of a grumpy-looking Anthony Bowens.

"You got a major tag team match (Tonight on a special Tuesday #AEWDyanmite) and you worried about taking MY money??? Nigel is right about you," Lee Moriarty wrote with the photo below.

Danielson has not publicly responded to his co-worker as of this writing. Bryan and Lee have shared the ring just twice. Danielson defeated Moriarty by referee's decision on Dynamite in February 2022, then Lee teamed with Dante Martin and Brock Anderson for a Dynamite trios loss to The Blackpool Combat Club two months later.
