The prestigious Owen Hart Foundation Cup went straight through the 2024 AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door event, with another first-match round pitting Bryan Danielson against Shingo Takagi in a battle of the dragons.
The crossover bout between two of the best from their promotions was an enthralling sight to witness. The American Dragon made it clear from the beginning that he would make the last leg of his career remarkable by winning the Owen Hart tournament, but the dynamic Rampage Dragon Shingo Takagi stood in his way.
The in-ring prowess of both competitors was on full display as the fans in attendance witnessed a stellar showdown with the stakes higher than ever. Bryan and Shingo hit each other with every move in their arsenal and attempted to reign supreme over one another.
However, the closing moments of the bout saw Bryan Danielson missing the pin after a running knee and submitting Shingo with an arm bar to secure the win and advance in the tournament while showing respect for his fallen opponent.
With this win, he will now face “The Bastard” PAC in the next round, who won his match against Claudio Castagnoli on AEW Dynamite a few weeks ago.
