When your list of trainers includes the names Shawn Michaels and
Steve Regal, you know that you are on the path to greatness. And
that has certainly been the case for the ‘American Dragon’ Brian
Danielson
Since his debut in 1999, Danielson has rocketed to the top of
the world of professional wrestling, carving a name for himself
wherever he travels. He is well renowned for his hard hitting
wrestling style that has had a serious impact on wrestlers and
fans alike.
He made his first real impression on the international wrestling
scene by claiming the IWGP Junior Heavyweight tag team
championships with Curry Man in New Japan Pro Wrestling.
But he created a legacy for himself during his 15 month reign as
Ring of Honour World Champion. During this time, Danielson faced
and defeated Samoa Joe, Colt Cabana, Austin Aries, Jamie Noble,
Christopher Daniels, KENTA, Naomichi Marafuji, Alex Shelley and
Nigel McGuiness. This list is a veritable who’s who of
professional wrestling and Dragon put himself at the top of that
list during this time.
Since recovering from a serious shoulder injury, Danielson has
returned better than ever. He almost claimed the NWA World
Championship before he received an eye injury that forced him to
with draw from the final of the 16 man tournament.
On any given day, this man is regarded as the best wrestler
walking the face of the Earth. And in November, he will step
onto Perth soil for the first time to prove exactly that.
