Bryan Danielson Teases Replacement for Forbidden Door, Blood and Guts

Bryan Danielson addressed his AEW future at AEW Dynamite last night and teased a mystery competitor to take his place at both Forbidden Door and Blood and Guts. Danielson is currently not medically cleared to compete at either event, scuttling both a planned match against Zack Sabre Jr. for the joint PPV with NJPW and Danielson's participation in the Blood and Guts match on AEW Dynamite next week. However, Danielson promised that he will definitely be back, and teased a hand-selected replacement who can deliver both the technical wrestling prowess to compete at Forbidden Door and the violence to compete in Blood and Guts.

The Chadster should also note that Johnny Gargano is doing his best to deny he is the mystery opponent.

But The Chadster once believed that Johnny Gargano would remain part of The Chadster's beloved WWE NXT for life, and then he broke The Chadster's heart by leaving the company, so how is The Chadster supposed to believe him now?!

It's also unfair to add this surprise to Forbidden Door, which already features two wrestling companies, AEW and NJPW, teaming up to bully WWE with a joint PPV. Auughh man! So unfair! In addition to Zack Sabre Jr. vs a Mystery Opponent, Forbidden Door features a stacked lineup of AEW, NJPW, and even ROH stars. Jon Moxley will face Hiroshi Tanahashi to crown the Interim AEW World Champion. In a fatal four-way, Jay White will defend the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship against Hangman Page, Adam Cole, and Kazuchika Okada. Thunder Rosa will defend the AEW Women's World Championship against Tony Storm. FTR, United Empire, and Roppongi Vice will face off in a triple threat for both the ROH World Tag Team Championships and the IWGP Tag Team Championships. And Will Ospreay will defend the IWGP United States Championship against Orange Cassidy. The Chadster can already feel himself becoming even more sexually impotent just looking at this lineup.

In non-title action at Forbidden Door, Zack Sabre Jr. will take on a mystery opponent of Bryan Danielson's choosing, who will be someone making their AEW debut. Chris Jericho will team with Minoru Suzuki and Sammy Guevara to take on Eddie Kingston, Wheeler Yuta, and Shota Umino. The Young Bucks have rejoined Bullet Club for one night only to team with El Phantasmo, and Hikuleo to face Darby Allin, Sting, Shingo Takagi, and Hiromu Takahashi, who are going by the deep cut name of Dudes with Attitude. There will also be another match announced on AEW Rampage on Friday. And on the Buy-In preshow, Max Caster and the Gunn Club will face The DKC, Kevin Knight, Alex Coughlin, and Yuya Uemura. The Chadster is literally beside himself at how many exciting matches are on this card, showing that Tony Khan and the country of Japan have absolutely zero respect for the wrestling business and everything Vince McMahon has done for it.

Forbidden Door will take place on Sunday, June 26th at the United Center in Chicago and will stream on Bleacher Report, Fite TV, and NJPW World, as well as on traditional PPV services. If you care about The Chadster's mental health at all, you won't watch it.
