The reign of MJF continues. What a controversial way to end it, but what a match nonetheless

We just witnessed an all-time classic. WHAT A MATCH

MJF hasn't let go. DANIELSON TAPS. It's all over!

MJF defeats Bryan Danielson by submission to retain the AEW World Championship

MJF takes a hold of the oxygen tank outside and uses it to smack Danielson on his temple. He hides the tank and proceeds to get the Labell lock on Danielson - who is out already. BUT IT"S NOT OVER. Danielson stays on!

The ring of MJF has been taken out of by the referee and he only taps out AFTER grabbing the ropes. Danielson thinks he won but he hasn't!

HOLY POISON RANA!! @bryandanielson #AEWRevolution

PSYCHO KNEE TO MJF BUT HE STILL KICKS OUT! WHAT!

MJF pushes the referee and Danielson tries to go for the pinfall. MJF goes for the low blow and the referee doesn't see it. HE FAILS TO PIN DANIELSON

Justin Roberts reveals that there is no tie. FIRST FALL WINS. SUDDEN DEATH RULES

Tony Schiavone has been told something. MJF is being given oxygen

The score ends at 3-3. The match is a draw and MJF retains the AEW World Title

Danielson has him in the middle of the ring. MJF stops himself from tapping. He's crawling to the ropes. He taps but only AFTER the 60-minute mark passes!

Not one person is sitting. This is crazy!

MJF finally goes for the pin but fails. Bryan has the single leg crab on! ONE MINUTE REMAINS

Danielson hasn't moved. What will happen with TWO MINTUTES remaining?

MJF has Danielson on the top turnbuckles and positions him for a big move - LANDING A PILEDRIVER FROM THE TOP! But he doesn't go for the pin as his knee is injured

MJF narrows down and JUST FALLS SHORT on the fourth fall

FIVE
MINUTES

MJF is in tears and Bryan Danielson is laughing. Justin Roberts announces that five minutes remain and we see instant desperation from both men.

The two are headbutting each other to the death and then exchange strikes. We're closing in on five minutes remaining

Down to the wire.#AEWRevolution #AEW pic.twitter.com/Q1FFDlFmM4

MJF has Danielson's arms ALL THE WAY BACK! It looks like torture for the challenger. Danielson narrowly gets his toes on the rope and breaks the submission!

MJF transitions to Salt of The earth, and gets Danielson to the center of the ring

MJFgets the labell lock in properly this time, and fans are itching for the tap! BUT MJF counters and tries a pinfall, only for a kickout at 2!

MJF is coming back, locking in Danielson to stretch his shoulders

Down to the final 10 minutes, and we've got a whole new ballgame! @bryandanielson #AEWRevolution

Danielson hits the psycho knee and has the Labell lock locked in an awkward position. MJF TAPS!

MJF 3-3 Bryan Danielson

They're even with exactly 10 minutes to go!

MJF IS BUSTED OPEN!!

Danielson shoves MJF into the ring post from the top turnbuckle before sending the champion flying down. A bloodied Danielson is visibly struggling to get the flying headbutt, but he lands it.

Danielson takes MJF out at ringside and rather than taking the pinfall count, he jumps from the top turnbuckle down to the floor to take his opponent down.

Danielson is unable to stand straight as he falls down attempting a punch. MJF blows some snot onto him and slaps him provocatively. Danielson rises and MJF asks for his best shot, and the challenger obliges. MJF simply headbutts him to knock him down.

MJF names Danielson's children and looks into the camera while continuing to brutalize him

MJF isn't going for the second pin immediately. Danielson is bloodied up badly and the Champion keeps him down while shouting "YOU F***ING SUCK" as the crowd gasps

Heat-seeker to Danielson and the pinfall puts the champ in front!

MJF 3-2 Bryan Danielson. 19 minutes remain

MJF sends Danielson through the same table with a tombstone piledriver. Danielson is BUSTED OPEN

This is now the longest match of MJF's professional career with 21 minutes left

Danielson JUST beat the count at 9!

22 minutes remain and Bryan Danielson is on the verge of being counted out!

DIVING ELBOW from @The_MJF! #AEWRevolution

MJF limps towards his opponent outside and then puts him on a table. He uncharacteristically jumps from the top turnbuckle to send Danielson crashing through!

MJF gets put on the ropes by The American Dragon. Danielson gets up behind him and elbows the side of his head before MJF sends him crashing down.
